Giveaway : Wee Wonderfuls Book by Hillary Lang

    

Giveaway is closed: lucky winner is : Melissa

Something special today...I'm very happy to giveaway this gorgeous craft book from Wee Wonderfuls by Hillary Lang to one lucky winner. All you have to do is leave a comment and let us know why you would like to receive this book. We will choose one winner randomly on Tuesday November 16 and announce the winner on the following day here on Bloesem.

For you who have never heard about Hillary Lang please let me introduce you to this super crafty lady who also runs my absolute favorite craft inspiration blogs that I have been following ever since I stepped into the blogworld myself. 

When I received a copy of the book I was not a single bit disappointed... and my expectations where high :) ...no the opposite happened I was even more impressed by the whole book. The lay-out, the bright and warm images and the easy steps and great patterns...it's not so much that the dolls themselves are hard to make it's the whole scenery in which the dolls are

being portrayed that inspired me...so much care, love and personal touches ... a true appreciation to Craft in general ...and I believe craftsmanship like this is what we all need in our lives, so thanks Hillary for helping us see this and encourage us to do the same...

Amazing! I actually already bought a copy of this book for my mum, and I'd love to be able to give another copy to a lovely friend who has a baby girl and is learning to sew!

[SaRaH]

I have so many kids around me, lately. Just a special year with loads of birds!
So many kids to make happy...not only kids, after all.

I would *love* to win this. I have a two year old who is so into dolls, and she also like what I make for her:-) Hoping I win this one.

[claire sibley]

Lush......looks like there's fun to be had. x

[Elizabeth]

This would be a great book for me and my little ones:-)

[Anne Maynard]

I would love this book!!!!! I'm trying to get more crafty while on maternity leave :-)

[Sara]

Oh lovely! I borrowed this book from my local library, it's so beautiful, so I would love to have my very own copy, please :O)

[meg]

I was lucky enough to be a pattern tester for one of the dolls in the book! I recently got a look at the finished book and it's gorgeous. The teddy bear would very much like to be under the tree this year, so here's hoping I win the book!

[NOTyourrunofthemill]

I want to be a super duper crafter just like Hilary.

[Tieske]

This would be the perfect gift for my girlfriends birthday next month!!

[Adela]

Hilary's toys bring joy from colours, children-friendly simple shapes and delicate details. I would love to have a chance follow her patterns.
Cheers!

[MIns]

My Daughter (she's 7!) and I made a vow this evening not to spend anymore money unless really necessary! and have now just stumbled across this post and give-away! Synchronicity me thinks! We're both trying to be conscious consumers and have decided to make our own toys (and fun!) This beautiful book is choc full of amazing inspiration and would be great to get us started on our new initiative : )

[Roula]

I am a crafter and I'd like to create some interesting objects for my little niece...

[Jane]

wow I would love to use the projects in this book to make beautiful toys for my friends children - they are having so many at the moment and I find myself frustrated by the abundance of plastic on offer in the shops... maybe I can change it a litte at a time!

[Tanya Martsenyuk]

I have three little kiddos to make these dolls for! I feel that making something with your hands is good for the soul. It's very gratifying and therapeautic. We should all do it more often, myself included.

[Sarah]

The pictures alone. But also for my two little ones.

[pisikana]

a lovely doll for my lovely baby

[Alecia]

I would LOVE to win this book. It's one I keep picking up in the store thinking that I'd LOVE to make some of the projects but I always end up putting it back thinking I don't have anyone to make the projects for. Winning it might be the perfect inspiration now that I have hopes of having my own wee ones soon!

[Suz]

I want to dream looking into the book!

[Kasey]

I would love to make some of the crafts in this book!

[kat]

I am preparing for a new baby and would love to make their first friend from the book. Love Hilary's work, have used her pdf patterns before and they are amazing.

[Maria Jose]

I love creativity, it makes me feel full of energy and happiness.

[Jessica]

I'd love to win this book!

[Megan Longtin]

What a sweet book! I'm a doll lover and doll maker... I'd love to add these patterns to my collection.

[Holly]

Seeing that red riding hood cape has made me seriously want to see the rest of the book!

[Petra van der Beek]

Wat heerlijk, een droom-maar-lekker-weg-boek dat ook een JA-ik-ga-heerlijk-aan-de-gang-boek is! Inspirerend, love it!

[Theresa]

Pick me! Pick me! I was just telling my iron man that it is terribly unfair that he has a project to occupy his hands (he is making a metal lathe) and my little hands are empty. Sigh....I do so enjoy little projects!

[Bunaciu Alina]

I ADORE toys, and this book is like a sweet dream. definitely a must have :D

[Anke]

Gorgeous! Since I have a lot of pregnant friends, it would be great to make them a nice doll as a present!
Hopefully me and my friends will be lucky through me winning the book!

[Liz B]

In the midst of the craziness of 4 little children and 1 with serious health issues at the moment, I find that sewing is my outlet - the crazier it is, the more I sew apparently. I would love to sew some of the little darlings from this gorgeous book for my little darlings!

[mamidelux]

wow! I have been following Wee Wonderfuls for quite a while. She is amazing. This is a great deal. thanks :)

[radzimire]

So nice , I play!

[charlotte]

I love Hillarys work - I think its the kind of inspiration work that can make your daughters childhood that bit more special and more memorable - which for me is the point of crafting!

[Camila Nadine]

I am developing a great passion for crafty stuff and trying to learn all by mayself. This giveaway is amazing because I was just planning to make a doll to give my best friend´s new born baby girl!

And also these books have such beautiful pictures that it inspires me to do more and more craft!

Thanks!

[Irina F.]

I am always on the lookout for craft books and projects for my 6 y.o. daughter. This book looks great, different from most books we have seen, very fresh and exciting!

[Angharad]

oh I heart the pictures & designs from this wee wonderful book!!!
I could have been crafty last night and made a little red riding hood when my daughter reminded me it was book character day today (we found a mini top hat and she went as the mad hatter)maybe next time?. xo

[oneperfectday]

I've been a huge fan of Wee Wonderfuls ever since I came across a book called 'The Crafter's Companion-tips,tales and patterns from a community of creative minds' a few years back and Hilary lang was one of the featured artists.
Who can forget that pink velvet piggy on wheels?
The woman is a genius!!
This book looks absolutely wonderful.
Thanks for the give-away!

[Bryanna]

What a fantastic book! With a new baby on the way I'm eager to start some crafting for kids and this is the perfect inspiration!

[Johanna]

Oh! I would love to use this lovely book with my 11 year old daughter who delights in doll making! Such beautiful inspiration, thanks for sharing!

[Dominique Mediak-Pirigyi]

I would love to have this. Of course, then I would have to quit my job to be able to plunge myself 24-7 into making everything in the book!
