Though actually when I was reading through those 1,193 (!!!) comments on the giveaway post it struck me that they weren't all so very different because there's a commonality in what people find happiness in: family (both the human and animal kind), time to yourself to spend as you like, making things and other small and simple pleasures. I've genuinely enjoyed reading all of those comments, smiled at so many of them and nodded in recognition lots of times. Thank you all so very much for taking the time to share your happinesses. I will go back and read through them whenever I need a little pick-me-up, they are a wonderful reminder that happiness can be found all around when you can take the time to notice it.

Anyway, the draw has been done (I still can't believe how many comments
were left!) and the random number generator picked comment number
611, which was Ellie.
She gets to choose from the batch above which are all finished and their photos uploaded to flickr now (click on the name links to see any of them in detail).
Thanks again to everyone who took the time to comment, I truly appreciate your kind words about the things that I love to make. Thank you x
