A year, a birthday, a giveaway

My blog archives tell me that this blog is a year old! Which conveniently coincides with my own birthday. So to celebrate, I thought I'd have a bird day giveaway, with a bird-themed prize pack. I'm giving away two feather patches, two huia patches (with a male and female huia) and two gocco-printed cards with a new owl design.If you'd like to enter, here's what you need to do. See those old-fashioned-looking women above? Well sometimes I get stuck thinking of old-fashioned names for the people I draw. So if you'd like to enter, leave me a comment telling me what you think I should name them. I've given them numbers, so you can use the numbers to show which ones you mean, e.g. 1. Euphemia, 2. Demelza 3. Hermione, 4. Edwina.

I'll pick a winner out of a hat next Sunday night, and will post the prize anywhere in the world. Good luck!
