October is Breast Cancer Awareness Month.
Many of us have had our lives touched in one way or the other by this disease. Perhaps we have known someone that is living with Breast Cancer, participated in fund raisers for research, or just simply worn pink to show our support.
The Strawberry Sampler has generously donated the following items for a Pink Giveaway.
Prize Number 1.

The Strawberry Sampler has generously donated the following items for a Pink Giveaway.
Prize Number 1.
The Chart and threads for My Pink Needle.
Prize Number 2.
The Kelmscott Needle minder called "Spirit of Hope" and the adorable pink Storklette scissors.
Prize Number 3.
A very pretty light pink fabric, from Picture-This-Plus, called Sorbet. The winner will choose a single-cut size of either 16ct Aida (shown on the right side of the picture) or 32ct Linen (shown on the left side). You'll have to trust me that the fabric is more pink than what the picture shows!!
There will be three random draws. Simply leave a comment on this post, and tell me which of the three prizes you'd like a chance to win. You may throw your name in for one, two or even three chances!
The winners will be chosen on October 31st ~ and provided Hurricane Sandy hasn't knocked out the electricity or that I am not in a sugar coma from eating the boys' Halloween candy, I will post the winner's names that night.
Hhhhmmmmm.....there will be three prizes, but really, everybody wins.....stay tuned!
Perhaps one day, a way will have been found to make Breast Cancer Awareness month a thing of the past....

Such a generous giveaway for such a great cause.
Please could I put my name down for Prize 1 and 3. Thank you.
A fantastic giveaway: and a great cause to raise awareness for. 1 in 8 women will have breast cancer: a scary statistic but thankfully research is leading the way for us to survive this disease if we catch it early: and we can only do that by promoting awareness. So well done! I would love to be entered for the sampler xxxxx Thank you.
What a sweet and generous giveaway!!! Any would be an awesome addition to my pink basket! Count me in on the fun and I think Strawberry Sampler is wonderfully generous.... Thanks again, Faye
My mum is still with us at 88 after beating breast cancer at 80 years old. Treatment has improved so much but there is still so much more to do.
I would be happy with any prize, but I love the sampler. Thank you. Irene xxx
What a nice giveaway.
Please add my name for any of them, they're all very generous.
Thanks!
Marilyn
How nice of you!
Hi Catherine! Please count me in for the pink 32ct linen. That is one I do NOT have. ;)
Hi Catherine! Thanks for hosting such a great giveaway for a great cause! We have lots of breast cancer awareness events over here including Run for the Cure, which I've participated in a few time. The stories of why someone is running are always truly inspiring.
Please enter me for the chart thanks!

Please include my name in your giveaway for all three. Any of the winnings would be wonderful. Strawberry Sampler has been very generous in their donation for such a worthy cause.
How kind of you and generous of the shop. I'm very thankful that I don't have anyone to stitch the sampler for right now, so hopefully someone who really wants to stitch that design will be the winner. However, I'd love to be included for prizes 2 and 3. Thanks for sharing!

Catherine this is a lovely thing for you and The Strawberry Sampler to do. I would love to be entered for 2 and 3 please. Thank you.
Hope you stay safe.
Catherine - you are from my home state of PA. I think you are the first blogger that I know of from PA. Please enter me for a chance in any of the drawings. They are all wonderful. Thanks!
Wonderful giveaway!! Would you toss my name in for that wonderful chart? It is utterly adorable! Thank you!
Please enter me in the giveaway. "I'm a pink girl!" I'm partial to Prize Number 1--the chart and threads for My Pink Needle, but please enter me in all three giveaways. Breast cancer struck very close to home this summer with the passing of my dear sister-in-law. We need to cure this terrible disease.
What a generous give-away... and one very close to my heart. I am currently undergoing radiation treatment for breast cancer (20 treatments down, 10 more to go... and yes... I am counting!!) I was diagnosed on June 25th, and it has been quite the journey.
I would love a chance to win prize #2... the needleminder and scissors. Thanks so much!
I would love to win any one of these prizes! What a generous giveaway!
Hi Catherine, please put my name in the hat for the pink linen. Hope that hurricane goes far far away from you.
Great giveaway! My mom is a recent breast cancer survivor. I would like to try for prize #1.
Thank you!
Oh, I'm so concerned about you over in eastern PA, Catherine. I hope you've stocked up and hunkered down. This storm really sounds scary...
I'd love to enter for the linen--thanks so much to the Strawberry Sampler girls and you for the giveaway for such an important cause :)
I would love any of the wonderful giveaways please count me in x 3. Thank you
Kathy
Please throw my name in the mix for the giveaway. Unfortunately I've known too many people with breast cancer :( I just last week sent off a quilt I made for my sister-in-law who was recently diagnosed. I keep thinking there must be something environmental or in our foods etc that is causing such a high incidence of this awful disease. Thank you for the chance at the generous giveaway.
P.S. Please enter me for all 3 of the lovely gifts.
What a great giveaway. I am a 17 year breast cancer survivor and would love to be entered for any of them.
Thank you, Linda
Hi Catherine! Please could I put my name down for Prize 1, 2 and 3? Thank you.
My sister is a breast cancer survivor!
Please included my name in the drawing
for all 3 prizes.
Thanks!
How wonderful Catherine!
Please put my name in the hat for #1.
Thanks!
I would love a chance to win any of the prizes. One of my dearest friends is a survivor and she cross stitches. If I were to win one of prizes, it will go to her. Thanks for the chance.
All three are wonderful little gifts, so throw my name in for all three. I just lost my 41 year old cousin to breast cancer in Sept. It is a cruel and disgusting disease.
As someone touched both peripherally (friends) and personally (survivor) by breast cancer, I am always struck with the efforts to raise awareness and find a cure. Thanks to the Strawberry Sampler for helping in this effort. Kindly enter my name for #1 or #3. Thank you.
Stay safe, i hope you are not affected during this worrying time.
Good luck to all the entrants in your giveaway.
I'd love to be entered for the 32ct fabric, thanks.
I would love LOVE 1 or 3 but of course I wouldn't say no to 2. :D What a great giveaway and another reason to love Strawberry Sampler more than I already do. It's a great shop and great group of ladies. Thanks for including my name in the giveaway.
Hello. I would like to win the 32 ct fabric but any of the wonderful prizes are fine.
It's a great give-away. Luckily I haven't had BC but so many of my friends have. We need a cure.
Thank you Strawberry Sampler.
All the giveaway pieces are lovely - I would be honored to be included in the drawing on my mother's behalf - she is a breast cancer survivor.
A lovely and generous giveaway, please enter me for #3 (Linen). Stay safe with Sandy passing right over us, it's just wet here for now.
Hi Catherine. I'm a Pink Girl! I love all three if I win...but if inhave to choose, the chart and threads is my first choice and the pink linen, my second. Thank you. Toni
My pink needle! Love it! Please enter me for that one!
Cute design & i love the colors!

Yes, we fared well too. Just a bunch of leaves down as best I can see. So many other hit much much harder. I imagine once I ride around town I might see more. Seems all and all we are ok... Glad you are top.
These are wonderful, thank you for sharing. Please put me down for all three as they would all make me happy. Thank you.

I'd love to be entered in your giveaway for either the scissors and needleminder or the fabric.
I just put that needleminder on my wish list at 123 Stitch today! That's the one I want to enter for please. I hope I'm not too late.....it's still the 31st.
My friend's daughter had breast cancer recently. Thankfully they got it all and she's dong fine now. It's a terrible disease.
This giveaway is a very sweet gesture to raise awareness.
Thank you....and thank the girls at TSS for me!
