PINK RESULT (and raffle)

Hi everyone
(drum roll)

the final result off my PINK  RIBBON  Challenge 2025

€ 875,-

(there are still two beauties left
but they will be sold another day, 
and it always takes a bit of time
and energy before all the last (extra) bits are made and sent)


Yeeeaaahhh !

I know I myself worked hard for this result,
but I wouldn't have reached this
without the help of all my wonderful customers
who donated so generously !


(a heart, harvest of our golden Ginkgo tree)



A very  BIG  THANK  YOU  to

JOLAN, ELKE, ALLISON,
MARTINA, NANNA,
JOKE, ANNE JULIA, MORAG,
NAYLSA, BIANCA,
MADELON, JUDITH,
JACCO, TWINK, FEMKE,
LARISA, KORINA, DAWN,
SUSANNE, JULIA,
MIRANDA, JOLANDA

(22 names because more than one
snapped up two or even more jewels !)

THANK  YOU
each and everyone of you
that supported me to
achieve this great result !

And the last bit for now :

GIVEAWAY and two left . . .

Pffffffft

Yes, this happens every year :
as soon as day 31 of "Pinktober" is gone
I go out like a candle
or like a soufflé right out of the oven into the cold.
As much as I LOVE my self-imposed work
the energy really lasts only so many days.
But don't worry, I will get back on my feet !
Two more commissions nearly there
and most of my packages sent off.
(though I hate the fact that customs asks nearly impossible things
when sending to the US)

My grand total isn't known yet
so that has to wait another while
BUT
my GIVEAWAY
is finished !

Woven blue fabric strips

with fifteen felt circles on it
stitched, just for the fun of it !



Please let me know
if you like to participate in the raffle

Please be aware that I truly don't know if I can fulfill
my Pinktober Challenge next year :
my hands are getting worse and I might not be able to
carry on making 31 Jewels then
. . . . . . . 
we will see
