Monday Monday - Sew Grateful Give Away !

Hello beautiful people

I trust the weekend was kind, and Monday eased you into the week in not too hectic a manner.

I am sew grateful today ! For all of you lot ! I love our sewing community - honestly, I feel blessed to have access to such a generous bunch of folks and so today I want to give something back to you !

So, I have 2 things up for grabs !

First up:

Is 1.5 meters of this grey Batik polka dot fabric (which means slightly irregular polka dots on a irregular grey background). I used it to make my Ginger which you can see here and I love it muchly !

You can view it on-line here





Second up:

Is one pattern of your choice from the lovely Tasia's Sewaholic patterns on me xx.

Here is the link - http://sewaholic.net/sewing-pattern-store/

(you may have to wait for shipping on this one - depending on what you choose)

Happy browsing !

All you have to do to enter is leave me a comment stating which item you would prefer (if the choice is possible when drawing names ! Obvs first out will get first choice).

The give-away will be open until I get home from work on Monday 13th February (around 4 pm UK time)

It would be nice if you were a follower of my blog - but this is not essential - I like to create an inclusive atmosphere over here   :-)  And I need to be able to contact you if you win.

The giveaway is open to friends both near and far, and I am happy to ship worldwide   :-)

Bon Chance !!

Big kisses to you all, especially during this Sew Grateful week.

  17. Isn't this sew (ha) nice of you! When I get home (48 hours, but who's counting?) I have a couple patterns and/or fabric I'd love to throw in the whole "Sew Grateful" lot.
    This sewing community really is the BEST! I find myself telling non-sewers about it, getting geeky, and they look at me like I have 2 heads, hehe!

    Anywho, throw my name in the pot for a pattern, I've yet to gather any Sewaholic patterns for some reason :)

    Thanks again, Kirsty!!

  64. Thank you for the giveaway! I would prefer a pattern (although I love polka dots though I've only finished one project with them so far since I started sewing) I've been reading everywhere how people just HAVE to sew a Minoru jacket but is it wrong I'm still coveting the Pendrell blouse instead?

  74. I'm a HUGE fan of Tasia and all her patterns. She is extremely talented. I would absolutely love, love, love the Lonsdale dress. I've been coveting it for a while now. The neckline is really beautiful and I would be ecstatic if I were to win this pattern. I even have a light summery fabric that would be perfect.
    Thank you so much for such a generous giveaway.

    ReplyDelete
  75. Oooh, this is tough... I love the fabric, but I just bought close to 10m of verious polka-dot fabrics, so I'm going to say the Pendrell blouse!!

    ReplyDelete
  79. What a lovely giveaway! Thanks for the chance to be in to win. :-) I'd love either prize, but if I had to choose, I'd go for the fabric (and make it into a 1950's style blouse).
