Welcome to Sunday Giveaway...
This is something brand spanking new for Jogirls Journey...and hopefully something that will continue. I was inspired by all the wonderful things out there on offer and wanted to start promoting some great aussie products, that are mainly handmade, made by wahm (like me) or at least are created here. Each week I will be giving something gorgeous that I have found out there, and would like to share with you!
If you have a beautiful product or creation, drop me an email and I will include you in the giveaways! We have some beautiful, unique and lovely items all coming up on Sunday Giveaways, so make sure you Follow Me to keep up to date...
Sunday Giveaway will run every Sunday (for as long as I can!), with a new Giveaway starting each Sunday and closing at midnight the following friday. The winner will be drawn by one of my peeps, totally random, and the winner announced on the following Sunday Giveaway...
So, to our first Sunday Giveaway...may I introduce....
Sarah from Billy Boy & Mia has gifted this scrumptious prize pack for our winner today.
Here is a little about Sarah & Billy Boy & Mia -
My gorgeous Granny taught me to sew on the old Husqvarna when I was young, plus embroider, make lavender bags, knit and generally make crafty things, always as presents. Luckily my mum had the same sewing machine that I have now sort of inherited (thanks mum!), and I decided two years ago to get back into making presents for friends and family.
I started ‘billy boy & mia’ as I thought perhaps I can sell these hand made things online as well. I work full time in an office job in IT so it’s great to have a creative outlet. I love finding and using pre-loved fabrics, especially those fabrics with great patterns and textures, and I love the sentimental value they may have with them already.
The fabulous prize for this weeks giveaway is -
Rosebud purse
This lovely Rosebud Zippered Purse is made with a heavy cotton fabric in a bright yellow with ‘shades of pink’ rosebuds and green leaves. It is fully lined with a fresh 100% cotton aqua, pink and yellow check. It has a handy side loop and is a great size for your lippy or use as a purse for your coins and cards. Approximate size is Width 14.5cm by Height 9cm. RRP $14
Barry brown pants
This sweet long limbed rabbit called Barry is handmade with soft yellow fabric from my grandmothers scrap box, and has finely striped brown pants. With diamond textured arms and legs in shades of brown, this softie has an embroidered face and is filled with non-allergenic polyester fibre filling suitable for littlies. He is about 16 inches (41cm) from the tip of his ears to his toes, and his tum is about 4.5 inches (11cm) wide. RRP $22
How gorgeous are they, dont you just want them, I know you do!
So to enter, it really is as simple as this -

I have had my eye on Sarah's retro orange flower bag since she introduced it to her store. So that has to get my vote, fingers crossed!!

My fav thing in her etsy store is the apples and pears scarf, it's gorgeous!
What a beautiful giveaway. I adore the apples and pear scarf.
Thanks for sharing this great site.

I had to choose 2 faves. Dancing Daisy I know my daughter would love and would become a must have for bedtime and of course mummy needs something too, I love the hot pink poppy bag.
Hi Jo! What a fantastic competition! I've checked out Billy Boy and Mia's fantastic goodies and I love the Pleated Rose Coin Purse... it would go perfectly with an outfit I've bought for the races in September!
My favourite is the Candy Stripe Jingle Bird, very sweet!
Awesome idea! Great way to help promote locals!! Now this was a tough call, but i think blue flower jingle bird was my fave from the madeit site!
i love the retro orange flower bag and all the rabbits are simply gorgeous too!!!
Doesn't she use beautiful fabrics? No expense spared!

I love rose the rabbit! might have to get me one :)

I have my eye on POSIE PRETTY IN PINK. She is absolutely lovely and would look soooo cute alongside bessie, my cow, and pinkie, my cat. :D
Jo, you're ace, promoting local gear like this! I really like billy boy & mia's beautiful things, but my fave would have to be the blue flower jingle bird - been waiting for a birthday so I can buy one of these as a gift!!
My little girl would just LOVE the candy stripe jingle bird... beautiful!

I love Sarah's work, her fabulous coin purses are so cute.
I love Sarahs new scarfs! Especially the pear and apple one :-)
My favourite is the 'suzie loves stripes' softie because she's so funky and cute and a bit odd :) Very cool!
