Bloggy Giveaway

Shannon, over at Rocks in my Dryer is hosting the Bloggy Giveaway Carnival. Be sure to visit Shannon for the list of participating blogs who are giving something away! Happy Winnings!

I am giving away the pictured bibbed apron with applique hearts on the pocket.

This is one of the project/crafts I do with the women's groups that I work with here in Costa Rica. Most of the women live in the precarios (slums) in extreme poverty and are often victims of domestic violence. I teach them crafts which they can make and sale, thereby improving their living conditions. If you would like the opportunity to win the apron, please leave a comment. I will draw a winner on Sunday evening, Feb. 3rd. The winner can be from anywhere in the world. Thanks for participating.
