Aussie friend of mine: Hey Krista, does Canada celebrate Valentines Day like they do in the U.S.?
Poppyprint: Yes, but to most husbands it is a bit of a non-issue {note: THIS IS A GENERAL OBSERVATION WITH NO PARTICULAR HUSBAND IN MIND}
Aussie friend: Lolololololol, same!
Other Aussie friend: funny about that. Same here (crying emoji)
Poppyprint: It's a global crisis
Other Aussie friend: maybe we should just go out and buy our own diamonds. I think they would learn pretty quickly then.
Well, I don't know about you, but I just want more fabric. I hardly ever bother putting my diamonds on.
With this in mind, my lovely blog partner Fabric Please! has generously offered to gift one lucky reader a sweet Valentine of $40 Cdn to spend on anything in their shop!
Might I suggest this lovely Kate Spain Aria charm pack:
Or perhaps Jan Avellana's Nod to Mod text print?
Or RJR Fabrics Chalk Letter in red:
These Free Spirit Fowl Play dots are super fun (and on sale!)
This is a blog follower's giveaway because I love you guys for sticking with me. Leave one comment here (maybe you'd like to share a sweet Valentine story with us?) to enter the giveaway. I'll choose a random winner on Friday, February 12. Just in time to buy yourself something special for the big day. Good luck!

I don't use the email address for any reason other than alerting giveaway winners that they've won. Sorry, but if I cannot contact you, you cannot win. (ETA - comments are now closed).
In the meantime, you may be interested in knowing that Fabric Please! is celebrating one full year in business with a month long sale running now until Feb.26th, 2016. With code ANNIVERSARY you'll receive 30% off all regularly priced yardage. This is a great sale!
Here's another of my homemade, hand-stitched valentines. This one was for my daughter, D (former circus athlete, current energizer bunny).
