So far the only sign of spring here in Wisconsin is that the sunlight is strong enough to melt some snow even when the air temperature is still below freezing. But it's time for a giveaway!!!
You have a chance to win one of the 2 prize packages pictured, by leaving one comment on this post. Make sure that there's a way for me to contact you if you win, either a blog ID or an email address.
I'll draw 2 names at random on Tuesday, March 10. Each prize package will include 2 tatting pattern books written by me, 4 skeins of hand dyed thread size 20, 2 skeins of hand dyed thread size 80, and an original tatted bracelet handmade by me.
Readers of this blog from outside the U.S. are welcome to enter this giveaway too; the package will be marked "gift".

What a generous way to welcome a long awaited spring with your lovely gifts. Got my fingers and toes are crossed at mikeannechihuahua@ntlworld.com
How can an old git pass this opportunity by? What a very generous giveaway. LOVE your threads.
I love your work as always, and what generous prize packages!
I'm working my way through your tatting course on Craftsy and learning a few new-to-me things along the way, thanks so much!
I always love the colorful work you post!
WOW! *รง*
I have no words... neither in English nor in Italian (just because I don't speak any other language, except for a little French maybe... no words in French aussi)
Well I'll cross my fingers, toes, legs, and braid my hair too! :D
Love your blog. I can't pass up a giveaway with so many goodies. Keeping my fingers crossed.
How fun! Here in Boston, we are still under several feet of snow and dealing with ice dams, leaky roofs, and transportation nightmares. A tatting giveaway is just what the doctor ordered! You should be able to reach me through my Google/Blogger ID, but if not, I'll gladly provide an email address.
We are under bright sunny skies and double digit temperatures today. I must enter my name in the hopes of getting one of the packages, especially interested in your pattern books. I am feeling lucky today.
Wow, what a generous giveaway. Brown bracelet is really lovely :). martadzejn[@]gmail.com (without bracket of course)
I would love a chance to win this lovely thread, and books (would take my tatting to a new level!)

What a beautiful idea! I have your tatted jewelry book and gave 2 necklaces away as Christmas presents! Would love to win this!! I also follow you on Facebook!

What a generous giveaway to brighten up someones winter day. Thank you for this giveaway opportunity.
What a generous package! I'm thrilled to have a chance to enter. Thank you so much for the opportunity. taknot at yahoo dot com
We lived in South Dakota for a few years. I loved the snow, but felt spring fever terribly when everything started to bloom in the south. A quick trip to smell the flowers and absorb the green usually fixed me up fine for the rest of the thaw.
What a great way to celebrate spring. Thanks for the opportunity to enter your giveaway. I will be so thrilled to win one of those wonderful packages, as I keep admiring your thread on yours and others tatting blogs.

We're lucky here in the UK where spring comes early! I'm definitely in for a spring giveaway of your lovely items please. Thank you Marilee!
Marilee, I have watched your designs for some time and find that I am also thinking of getting some of your custom colored thread for a special project I will be doing soon. I think I have bought all your books so far
I live in a community a little ways out from Seattle, so I get to enjoy Seattle weather, which has been so nice for the last few days that Spring is definitely weighing on me.
This is a first for me to catch one of your giveaways while I can still enter. Thank you so much for stirring the tatting fires up.
Great giveaway. Thanks for a chance to win!
