Fabric + Patterns Giveaway! [Closed]

giveaway-greenblueorange-and-patterns1

Good morning! I hope you had a restorative weekend, friends. I figured that because I’ve inundated you with photos of K these past couple of weeks, and because I felt the need to take a break from sewing pint-sized clothes while I work on my illustrations, today (and probably next Monday) I have a giveaway! I did a little de-stashing this weekend, and I’m hoping there might be some takers of quilting cotton and I’m throwing in a couple of Butterick patterns.

I like these fabrics just fine, but I seem to bypass them time and time again whenever I start a new sewing project so I felt sorry for them. They deserve a better home. The cute green floral is Katie Jump Rope by Denise Schmidt for Free Spirit, and the blue and orange cheerful one simply has “Anthology Fabrics” and some numbers on the selvage. 1.5 yards each.

I got these Butterick patterns at one of those JoAnn’s sales when K was about 3 or 4, and she’s now outgrown them. They are unused. Butterick 5458 (the party dress) is for sizes 2-3-4-5, and Butterick 4842 is a toddler’s “jumper” for sizes 4-5-6.

To enter the giveaway, please leave a comment with a podcast recommendation. I’ve been way into podcasts lately and love Stuff You Should Know, The Moth, Design Matters and After the Jump. I’m always on the hunt for more — humorous ones are especially appreciated! Or, if you’re not a podcasting sort, a show recommendation would be awesome too. I’ll watch pretty much anything from The Mindy Project to Breaking Bad. I’m a huge sci-fi fan too! International entries are welcome and I’ll keep the giveaway open until this Thursday, May 29th. Good luck!

  1. I love New Girl ! It takes an episode or 2 to get really into it, but it is SO worth it ! Funny, sarcastic, and very recognisable. Schmidt is a hero, and the main character Jess played by Zoeey Deschanel (sister of Bones-actress Emily) is just the quirky nerdy teachertype everyone wants to know.Seriously: watch it !

  6. In a very Australian centric slant on humor: For podcasts, I loved TOFOP for awhile, made by 2 good friends talking crap while (possibly) being stoned. There are hundreds of episodes now so start at the beginning and expect to get lost… or lose interest. For non-podcast material, gentle comdey festival sort, try Adam Hills. And for not so gentle, do not watch where kids are present or if you can’t handle swearing comedy festival sort, try Jim Jeffries.

  7. i have to say i love a bit of bbc radio 4 either the womans hour for some interesting subjects or the friday night comedy show.

  8. I am obsessed with Orphan Black on BBC. The lead actress, writing, everything is just amazing. If you check it our, start with season 1.

  9. While not a podcast, my favourite thing to listen to at the moment is Global Breakfast Radio (http://www.globalbreakfastradio.com/). The site follows the sun west, picking up feeds from local radio stations around the world where breakfast is being eaten, streaming them for 10 minutes and then moving on. It’s fascinating!

  10. I would love to win, however I don’t even know what a podcast is. So I can’t really recommend one! 🙂
    Thanks Sanae!

  11. I don’t really know if you like thrillers, but “The Killing” is great. Not very funny, but very intriguing.

  12. I don’t watch podcast so I don’t know any good ones. Sorry, Sanae!;p i hope you have a great day!

  13. I haven’t listened to many podcasts but I love listening to books that’ve I’ve downloaded / checked out from the library. I’m currently loving People of the Book.

  14. My favorite podcast is the New Yorker Fiction podcasts. Every month, a writer reads one of his/her favorite stories.

  16. I usually have to wait for the podcast of Wait Wait Don’t Tell Me to come out, because I always forget to listen to it on Saturday!

  17. I love the How Did This Get Made podcast where they talk about bad movies. It helps you also like watching bad movies!

  20. I don’t listen to podcasts, but my favorite TV shows right now are Castle and Warehouse 13. Thanks for the chance to win.

  21. not a podcast girl, but i can’t seem to stop watching TrueBlood on HBO!

  22. Craft Lit- the intro is funny and interesting and the book reading is great.
    Thread Cult is super interesting.
    Hope all your work goes well! Thanks for a lovely giveaway!

  23. I’m sorry I can’t give you any recommendations — I have never listened to a podcast. Thanks for the giveaway, though, I’d love these for my daughters!

  26. Welcome to Nightvale is an amazing podcast, and if you like history I’d recommend Hardcore History

  28. I don’t really listen to podcast, not even sure what they are, but I think Pat Sloan does quilting related podcast, if that is what you mean, I think….

  29. I’m not into podcasts, but I would highly recommend watching Game of Thrones. Excellent program! Thanks!

  30. I’m addicted to Ted Talks. They aren’t podcasts but rather speeches that stream from the website. So I keep my laptop in the sewing room and listen to Ted Talks for hours. They are short talks about any subject you could imagine, so I can’t recommend just one. But you can look them up by the subject list. Thanks for the chance to win this lovely fabric and the patterns! They are just the right size for my granddaughter. And thanks for your inspiring blog!

  33. Have you seen Damages? I’ve really enjoyed it. All 5 seasons are on Netflix. Also Bored to Death for a semi-ridiculous comedy and Flight if the Concords if you want something completely ridiculous. 🙂
