How is it that I am just now discoveringย this?? The timing is perfect because I was just going through my stash of fabric and books last night thinking, “Hmmm, I have waaay too much going on here…I wonder if I should do a giveaway?” Sew Mama Sew is hosting a HUGE giveaway event and I’m jumping on the bandwagon.
Without further ado, my first ever giveaway: a rather coveted, brand-spanking new copy of Heather Ross’s “Prints”. Chock full of ideas, patterns and an awesome tutorial on designing your own fabric. What’s not to love? Plus, I will include two beautiful pieces of Heather Ross Far Far Away fabric (1 yard each). They are a luscious cotton-linen blend that will knock your socks off if you’ve never experienced her fabric.
What to do: Please leave a comment with your favorite kind of crafting/creating. Are you passionate about sewing? Baking? Latch-hooking? I’d love to know!
When to do it by: The giveaway will be open until 5pm PST, Friday, December 7th. I will select a winner using a random generator on December 9th and email the lucky crafter (never done the random generator thing before…hope I don’t botch it up).
International shipping? Why yes, I will!
Good luck, and I hope you’ll have a look around my little blog — I myself am a wayward maker and can’t seem to decide on any one thing. You’ll also discover lots of other like-minded folks and wonderful blogs, so head on over to Sew Mama Sew to see!

Katherine says
I like to sew and read adn learn. Most nights, I combine both listening to classics on Librivox whiel my machine hums along. After a few false starts in my teens, including a awkward chicken print dress at 10 years old, I took up sewing with the birth of my 2nd daughter. I now have four precious daughters, 7 and below.
I finally had the courage to sew a christening gown for the fourth little blue-eyed doll.
And I am so thankful sewing gave me another chance. Though I have no creativity, I love using my hands to create beauty that blesses my children. It also helps me have something to physically hold during a season when most of my work is undone immediately.
This book looks fabulous. Thank you for sharing it with all of us strangers. ๐

Love these! I am late to the Heather Ross party, but I just hope I can nab a little of her Far Far Away, before it is…..crossing fingers and toes! I love making fused paper artwork, but I have been quilting for the last year and that is wow too! My favorite thing these days is paper piecing! I finally go the hang of it and I find it very satisfying. Thanks for the chance to add not only fabric but that lovely book to my creative corner!
