Sew, Mama, Sew! Giveaway Day

With the year almost over, it's time for me to wrap up my projects from 2011 and think about what I want to do in 2012.  With just a year of quilting under my belt, there's still so much I haven't tried.  Paper-pieced hexies, New York beauties, and cathedral windows are all on the short-list.


Also on my short list is a giveaway.  Who doesn't love a good giveaway?  I know I do.  Sew, Mama, Sew! Giveaway Day provides a great way to reach a lot of people, so I'm jumping on this train.  My husband continually complains comments about my ever-growing fabric stash.  He'll be ecstatic to know that I will be offering up some of that stash as a prize.  (Of course, that just makes room for more fabric, right?) 



Not only will the winner receive 5 FQ's from Jennifer Paganelli's Bell Bottoms, but a copy of the Emmaline Apron pattern from Sew Liberated as well.

What do you have to do to win these this fabulous pattern and fat quarters?  Just leave a comment about what's on your sewing short-list for 2012.  Following me is optional (and appreciated), but not necessary to win.

The giveaway, open to both U.S. and non-U.S. residents, will be closed at 5 pm PST on December 16th, at which time a winner will be picked at random.  Be sure to leave your email address in your comment if you are a no reply commenter.  I'll contact and post the winner on December 17th.  Good luck!

    I have 3 quilts waiting to be started, and some paper pieced patterns to finish, so lots of work for sure. And some small purses already cut up and ready for sewing and for sure I will not manage to do them before Christmas. Thank you for the chance to win!

    Golly, I don't plan that far ahead! The only thing that I know I want to make next year is a quilt for my husband. The kids keep stealing his blanket!

    I don't have a sewing short list. It's a rather long list- clothes for the kids and myself - pants, shirts, jackets, wool slippers, and several other things I haven't tried yet. I want to lean toward making and upcycling more of our clothing and buying less.
