Tomorrow's the day!

Thank you to everyone who entered my give-away by leaving comments on the With My Needle Facebook page.  It was so fun to read the comments.  I only wish that I had enough Miss Trenner's Special Editions to give to all of you.

I've numbered all the comments (and I've also removed last names although they still appear on the Facebook page).  Tomorrow using a random number generator I'll pick a number and announce the winner on Facebook.  Good luck to all who entered the give-away.

I thought perhaps you might like to read the comments that were posted, so here they are.

  27. Patricia--Just got my first WMN last year, but have to say I loved the hornbook for groups done with my EGA group. I learned I can stitch over one on 32 count. I've bought 2 more designs of WMN . it is sorta "on my list" of favorites I buy from now.

  35. Pam--A Multiplication Table Examplar is one of my very favorites.

  37. Martha--My favorites are Star of Wonder ornament, Blairgowrie, Quaker samplings, bunnies in the garden- hard to choose just one. Thanks.

  40. From the Heart~Needleart by Wendy Quaker Needlework Treasures, it's what I'm working on right now.
  41. Marjan--Ackworth friendship book as it reminds me of being at Ackworth and I stitched it with my favourite needlework friends initials. It can take me back to that time and place when I look at it.
  42. Ine--I love the borders in "Adorn thy heart" but I also like your quakers and the "ES Floral Sampler".
  43. Karen--Quaker Turtles! I don't know why they're my faves -- probably because they're so cute and samplery all at once.
  44. Christina--I just picked up Ada Mary Hornsey and like it very much!
  45. Denise--Love the Quaker Turtles! Thank you for the chance to win!
  46. Lili--so hard... well I love the Within My Heart Sewing Case :) thanks for the chance. nice weekend.
  47. Lisa--This is a tough question as there are several that I absolutely love. I would have to say my favorite is the Ackworth Friendship Book. I was browsing through designs at a needlework shop (while on vacation) and it took me about 10 seconds as to whether or not to buy it. And yes, I bought it!
  48. Jacqueline--My fav is the Quaker Hornbook class...love that I actually finished it with your great instructions!!
  49. Margie--It's hard to pick just one. I have completed several designs and have even more in my stash. But since I'm pressed, Quaker Hornbook. I did mine over one in blue and it's beautiful.
  50. Patricia--My favorite WMN design is Mrs. Waddelow's Needlework Basket - but that said I love all of your designs.
  51. Margaret--Oh my gosh, my favorite design? It's so hard to say! But I may have to go with Agnes Scott. She caught my eye from the first and I still love her. I need to stitch her too! There are so many beautiful designs though. Congratulations on 1000 people!
  52. Sally--Congratulations on the 1,000 mark. My favorite design is the Within My Heart sewing case.
  53. Susan--My favorite WMN design is Ackworth Friendship Book
  54. Karen-- ‎'My favorite stitching things' basket is a favorite WMN design. I love all the baskets, containers and needlebook type patterns! Lots of things to store my scissors and other stitching tools in!
  55. Betsey--My favorite, that is hard. How about a pair of pin cubes? It is in my next up to be stitched so for the moment that is my favorite design.
  56. Rebecca--Oh, I guess I left my post on the wrong page, please forgive me. I am not very good at this facebook navigation. But looks like I got it now. I do really like your quaker turtles design, also like the Mrs. Waddelow's. I really can't say which is my all time favorite, I just like everything you do. That's why I would love to have Miss Trenner's box set. Thanks and keep up the great designing.
  57. Kathy--So many wonderful designs to choose from! I think I'd have to say my favorite would be the Alphabet Samplings Book. Now that could change tomorrow if I were to post again but I won't. Thanks for the opportunity to enter to win the box set!
  58. Isabel--I love so much Miss Trenner's Needlework Academy ....
  59. Barbara--I absolutely love the Quaker Sampling II and I am getting to like the samplers using one color....love your designs and hope to be entered in your giveaway
  60. Kim--Pleas enter me in your wonderful giveaway and Adorn Thy Heart is my favorite :)\
  61. Ann--My favorite is Family Record Sampler. I've done this for 3 nieces. Once I did the first it was asked as a baby shower gift for the next two. Thanks for a great design.
  62. Pamela--Thanks for the giveaway. My fav WMN is Quaker Turtles. So hard to choose a favorite.
  63. Zeena--I love so many of the designs. Favorites are the Quaker alphabet, Mrs. Waddelows, All the different sewing sets and baskets. Long May She Wave, which I took in class. And love all your charts, with such clear instructions, and history.
  64. Sylvia--I love your Hornbook Examplar - I saw a model of it in a shop in Paris and totally fell in love. The shop owner used some very cute mother of pearl buttons to finish the hornbook, I bought those so I could recreate the look at home. If people have not seen this one in real life, they have no idea what a sweet & beautiful piece this is.
  65. Phyllis--My favorite design is My Treasures Sewing Case. I have stitched this and love how it turned out. All your designs are great and there are a few more I would like to stitch.

I don't do facebook, but wouldn't have entered anyway...I own almost all your designs, having stitched almost none. But to pick a favorite would be impossible..Quaker Samplings because dd stitchied it for me. Today it's Blairgowrie because I hadn't seen it and GOT to have it :) Also had never seen Paradise Lost and will get it if still available. So, there you go...every body loves 'em all :)
hugs,
