sorry, you're not a winner

Eight weeks into this project and I finally had to do a real drawing to see who would win the embroidered felt circus animal cookie stationery duo posted last Monday. With Neal as my witness, Meredith was the name I pulled out of the hat. Congratulations, Mer! Also on its way to you is a variation on week seven's hot cocoa for one.


Since I had more cocoa mix, chocolate chips, and mini marshmallows on hand, and there were only two folks interested in that week's project, I decided I'd send the hot cocoa for one to Jolina and put together another hot cocoa kit for two for Mer (and Jef...happy belated birthday!), using a larger baby food jar and topping it with still more decorative felt from that V-Day bag that's made its way into several of the Makery projects. Everyone's happy!

Unfortunately, while I do want to make more of the circus animal cookie stationery (I'm thinking a set of four notes - two white cookies, two pink - to attempt to sell in my Etsy shop), I'll need to actually go out and buy more felt since that V-day bag is finally down to a few, barely usable scraps. So to those of you who did not win this round, thanks for playing and, as they say, you can't win if you don't play (of course, you can't lose if you don't play either, but let's ignore that part).
