Sew Mama Sew Giveaway Day!

Hi there everyone! I love this giveaway day, it's a brilliant way to check out other people's craft blogs and get inspiration for your next project (oh, and to win cool stuff too) So what am I offering? A softies pattern from the brilliant Australian designers Melly and Me. If you've ever read my blog before, you'll know how much I adore their softies! This one is Penguin Parade, a group of super sweet little penguins just waiting for you to make them and love them.
Of course you'll need some fabrics to make these little darlings, so the winner will receive these also:

I am quite happy to ship internationally so entrants from all countries are welcome. Now you'll need to know what to do to be in the running for the prize! Simply leave a comment telling me your favourite Christmas dessert - traditional or modern. For a second entry, become a follower and leave a second comment letting me know. If you're super keen, you can leave a third comment with a link to your favourite Christmas pudding recipe as I'm still searching for one! Good luck everyone and don't forget to go back to Sew Mama Sew's giveaway page to enter more blog giveaways. Merry Christmas :)

  69. Hm ... Christmas dessert ... to be honest the only Christmas dessert I can think of right now is a Gingerbread trifle we made once. It was very tasty - we got rid of all the store bought gingerbread that I do not like - and it is REALLY easy to prepare. You just layer all ingredients and that is it!!! (I think it contained gingerbread, oranges, cream - pudding? - or something with mascarpone? I could check it out and see if I could hunt down the recipe if you like.)

    Thanks for the chance to win!
