EDITED: 17FEB2011 - COMMENTS WILL BE CLOSED MIDNIGHT TONIGHT EST.
It's that time of year again for a tour of the "blogosphere". If you're not familiar with the event, click here for the details. You may even want to join in the fun yourself, but you must have a blog to participate.
Below is my giveaway which is typical of the art that I produce. I like to mostly work with fabrics. I have a special affection for cats but I make dolls and other things as well. I give every one of my creations a human face.
Here then is my giveaway, a cat with a menacing face. She measures 7 inches in height and 6 inches across at the widest point. She is made from printed cottons. I "painted" the face with inks. She is backed by felt and the edge is embroidered with a blanket stitch. There is a little hook at the back so she can be hung up on a wall. I think she would be especially appropriate for display around Halloween.
If you would like a chance to win her (and you have a blog), all you need to do is leave a comment on this post and your Email address (if it isn't shown somewhere on your blog or profile). I need to be able to contact you if your name is drawn. The draw will be on February 18th.
Good luck and many thanks for stopping by.

Hi Inga
Nice to meet you.
First I took the time to discover your blog and i've browsed a while through your earlier posts.
I must say...I'm glad I did !!
I loved your post "junk mail" and the link to Carla Trujillo also !!
Thanks for sharing:)

About your giveaway; It would be a present to treasure so please draw my name !!
Kind greetings, Rian from the Netherlands. I invite you to my blog for a visit as well.
Hi Inga,
I am Canadian living in TO.
What I treat reading your blog. I hope after many years of marriage my husband will still surprise me, I laughed out loud when I read that after 22 years of marriage you did not know he could knit.
I am in awe of your passion for opera. I visited your cooking blog and I think I'll try making those sausages, I love sausages, but they are so not good for your body.
Well it was a nice visit, thank you.
She is quite wonderful! Thanks for a great giveaway! I do hope you are able to stop by mine! #357 jinglesells at gmail dot com
omg..that is awesome!
Hope you have oodles of fun during OWOH. It's so nice meeting you and seeing your blog. Love the Kitty Kitty. Thanks for your generosity and participation in the event. Count me in please.

Hi Inga,
I so much appreciate the kind words you expressed concerning my planters. I am so glad you are happy with the one you received. Yes, they definitely do look better in person.
I love your black cat! She is so demure and secretive. I tried to purchase one from you awhile back but you are very busy and would rather just give...Hopefully, I will be lucky enough to win her!
Hugs,
Cheryl

Just a note: Had a snafu with my last attempt at posting. Somehow a post I posted elsewhere got posted along with what I was posting here, so I deleted the whole post (as it wouldn't let me edit). So that was me in case you were wondering, sorry.
Greetings from Massachusetts. Your work is wonderful. I love cats too. We have three rescued cats (one dog). I work with polymer clay and one of my first creations was a cat. I love the faces on your work. I've had fun browsing your blog. Isn't opera wonderful? Blessings in the journey,

Hi there,
