Announcing the Winner of the Instagram Giveaway

Congratulations go out to @thequiltingdoberman!

You have won your very own copy of The Big Acorn Race. Please email squirrelpicnic(at)gmail(dot)com with your mailing address and I’ll pop your prize in the mail today.

In other news, did you know that you can now find The Big Acorn Race in Barnes & Noble (and wherever books are sold). I don’t know if that’s a big deal, but when I saw that the book had ventured beyond the realm of Amazon and out into the big wide world, it really gave me quite a thrill. It’s like watching it fly out of the nest. (Sorry, weird metaphor. How would I know what that’s like? I should’ve interviewed a bird before saying such a thing.)

We’re working hard on getting the book into yarn shops nationwide as well. I’ll keep you posted on where you can find these little squirrels and their adventure.

Congratulations to the Winners of The Big Acorn Race Giveaway!

Hodge and Podge and I are pleased to announce the winners of the first ever Big Acorn Race Giveaway! Thankfully the Gleam Giveaway app does all the work of picking random winners. (Podge was worried that she would have to do it, and she can’t take that kind of pressure.)

Congratulations, Amanda, Cindy, and Tabitha! If you are one of these lucky winners, please be sure to email squirrelpicnic(at)gmail(dot)com with your mailing address so we can send your prize to you right away.

Thank you to everyone who entered. We were really pleased to see so many participants. If you didn’t win, don’t dismay; we’ll be holding more giveaways in the future. So be sure to follow us on Instagram, Twitter, and Facebook to get in on all the action.
