It's Giveaway Day!!!


Don't forget to go here to enter more giveaways!
It's here! It's giveaway day! Thanks so much for coming over to check out what I have to offer. I hope you stay to check out my blog; there's about to be some fun stuff going on in the next couple of months. I will be participating in the Tammy bag Blog Hop over at Sew We Quilt from June 12-18th so definitely come back for that. I'm working on my first bag now and it's going to be so cute! I'm thinking laminate for a second one. Hmmmm.....
So, what do I possibly have to give away?
I am giving away a half yard cut of each of the pictured fabrics from my stash. Wow, that was weird being able to say I can pull something from my stash to give away.
THIS GIVEAWAY IS CLOSED.

The dragonfly fabric is a Michael Miller Bazaar print. The floral is a Robert Kaufman design. I will also squeeze in as many crochet dish/washcloths as I can fit in with it if you are interested. Just let me know if you want some if you win. And what do you have to do to win? Well, let's see...

1. Leave me a comment below. Looking for something to say? I am interested in any fabulous patterns out there in bloggy world that you are just dying to try. Personally, I keep trying to win the wonderful Aeroplane Bag by Sara over at Sew Sweetness.
2. You certainly do not have to follow me but, if you do, you are welcome to leave a comment for a second entry.
Follow on Bloglovin 


Make sure you are not a no-reply blogger peeps! I would hate to have to redraw if I can't get in touch with someone!
I had originally thought I would keep it just in the US but I changed my mind. This is now open to anyone!

This giveaway will stay open until May 10th, 5:00 PST. I will do my best to announce the winner Saturday, May 11 so check your email!

***Update***
 I really was going to try to respond to all the emails but I did not expect the number of responses I have gotten. I have never gotten this many responses for a giveaway. Please know that I am reading them all but I will be unable to keep up with responding to each and every one. Good Luck to all!!!

I'm still itching to try the weekender bag, but it terrifies me. And I'd LOVE dish cloths! My grandmother makes them but I'm the black sheep of the family, so I have to nab the ones she sends my mom - she won't make me any, lol.

I second the paper piece blocks at Quiet Play. They're what got me to try paper piecing (which still intimidates me).

I just keep collecting patterns; sometimes I will win them or sometimes I will find them on the Internet to keep. Yahoo Groups is a good source of free quilt patterns as well as Moda Bake Shop. I know that I will never ever be able to make them all but at least I have them and can always pass them on. I would be honored to win and yes, I would love to have your crochet dish/wash towels. This means they are well loved and they come from your heart. Thank you for being a part of Sew Mama Sew giveway and giving me a chance to win. It is always so much fun to get an unexpected gift in your mailbox.

Cortney said...

The only online pattern I've ever tried was one for reversible Mary Jane baby shoes. They weren't too difficult to make and they turned out soooo cute, but my daughter kept scrubbing them off her feet. She wore them once for a couple of pictures, and in the second picture she has one of the shoes halfway off. She never wore them again. Oh well.
