Friday Contest

I was told last week that it is against Facebook rules to have contests, so I am moving my Friday pattern give-away here.
I will give one person their choice of any pdf pattern on my site, bellacrochet.com. I will select the winner at random, and send out the pattern in the morning (Saturday.) I will post the name of the winner here, so be sure to check back in the morning to see if you are the winner. 

To enter, just answer this question:
Have you ever won a contest? If so, what did you win?

This contest is now closed.

Personally, I've never won a contest - unless you count a short story competition when I was 11 :)

My husband however won two tickets to Riverdance (which we gave to friends who were big fans) by answering (on the radio) "What is it that 90% of men say they have done, and 90% of women say they haven't?" The answer was "wiring a plug". I'm glad I'm in the 10% that has - I do have some practical skills as well as my crafting :)

I won some yarn from a knitting guild I belong to. I think that is the only time I have actually won anything.

I did win a contest, but it was some time ago when I was around 10 years old. My music teacher entered me in a talent contest held at a local movie theater and I played an accordian solo. I won cash and bought the most beautiful taffeta dress. I kept the dress for a long time, but it eventually started falling apart.

I'm one of those who "never win anything". But my luck changed a few years ago when I won an iPod Touch from a radio station! Since then I've won occasional crochet patterns!

I won a flip camea from Pepsi several years ago. It was quite exciting!

About 30 yrs ago (when the boys were growing up) the brand of shampoo we were using had a giveaway. If you found a diamond shaped piece of plastic in your shampoo bottle with a letter on top it was a winner. The prize was a 1 carat diamond necklace appraised at 1,000.00. One Sunday morning while getting ready for church one of the boys gave me an empty bottle and said it had something stuck in the bottom. I put a little water in it and shook it. I could hear it rattle in the bottle. I poured the contents out into my hand OVER an open sink. It had the diamond shaped object in it and it had the letter on top. IT WAS A WINNER! I truly don't know why it didn't just go down the sink!

When I was about 13, I won a door prize at the Home and Trade show, a five foot aluminum stepladder! My Dad was thrilled and had to go pick it up the same day! Lol

At first I thought I won maths contest when I was about twelve (I got a book about animals) but after a while I realized that I didn't won - I was second. So unfortunatelly I must say I have never won. I hope that it will change.

This is the only place I've won a contest! And I'm so glad you're back on your blog! I have never gotten in to the whole Facebook thing. I've missed your blog posts.

I have won a contest before. A few years ago I entered my email address on our local radio station's website and I won a new laptop! Talk about excited!!

Criossa said...

I have never won a contest before. but to be honest I know I have horrid luck so I do not enter many to begin with :)

I won a yarn mystery box from craftsy last month. And a free crochet pattern from another site earlier this year.

Unknown said...

I won a free pattern just two days ago! It was a random drawing for those who follow Ambassador Crochet. I was so excited! I hadn't won anything for more years than I can remember. Maybe lightning can strike twice.

Sadly I have never won a contest but then I don't enter that many - only the ones that I would really love to win.
