Back from market, and I had a fantastic time! It was exhausting but a success and just so much fun. Here's the first round of photos from my booth. Check the end of this post for giveaway info!
More from the rest of the market will be to come soon. But how about a give-away in the meantime?
Let's have two winners. One will get a set of my four newest sewing patterns, and the other will get a copy of Little Birds. And I'll sign my project in it too!
Two ways to win: Simply comment here... and/or tweet about the giveaway and follow me, then come back and comment that you did so. i.e.: the only way to have an entry is to comment, so you'll have to do that to let me know you tweeted and followed (or tweeted and already follow).
I'll pick a winner using random.org on Monday the 8th of November at 10 PM. You have until then to enter. Good luck!
I hope I win! My fav project of yours is that amazing chair!!!! Gorgeous booth!

Your booth was so pretty! Wish I could have seen it in person. Saw some art journal on sale the other day and was trying to convince my husband that fabric is like a collectors item. And I needed to buy some for my stash before prices went up. Unfortunately he wasn't buying my story. *sigh* I'll get some of your fabric in my stash someday soon somehow. =)

I was just looking at that book the other day, but the patterns would be wonderful too!
Posted by: Melinda | Wednesday, November 03, 2010 at 05:15 PM
I'd like to win the giveaway,
either prize would be just great!
But if I won the book you signed,
You'd really really rate!
'Cos my last name is Bird, you see,
and it would really be so neat,
if I would win "little birds"
(or your patterns, too!)
Either one would be a treat!
