The leaves on the trees are turning

It's September tomorrow and the leaves on the trees are starting to turn. So I've been stocking up on Autumn/Fall themed amigurumi in my shop.

And the winner of the Autumn/Fall giveaway is...

Like last time I put my list of all the entries into the list randomizer at random.org and then I generated a random number to find the winner. Here is the list and the winning number. I still can't work out how to get the list bigger but it's there so you can see I did it!

Those of you with amazing vision will be able to read from the list who is number 5, but for the rest of us who can't see it I would like to announce Fiona as the winner of that Autumn/Fall giveaway thus proving that the saying 'better late than never' is true as she was the last person to enter just one minute before the giveaway closed!

Thank you to everyone who entered and look out for the Christmas giveaway coming at the beginning of November :)

Autumn Fall Giveaway

It's time for the Autumn Fall giveaway. Although for many of you Autumn has already arrived, in my part of the world it feels nowhere near Autumn. I'm still wearing shorts, t-shirts and flip-flops everyday, but October is not far away and overnight Autumn will be upon us.

I made Polly Pumpkin for theitsybitsyspider's crochet along . She is a very cute and happy pumpkin and would love to help decorate your house for the Autumn/Fall time.

So have any of you joined theitsybitsyspider's crochet-along? I've just been on holiday and I used the time I had relaxing by the pool, looking over the Adriatic to get started on my pumpkin. I actually finished it but I haven't got any good photos of the finished thing yet. Hopefully I'll have something to show you in the next couple of days.
