Happy Friday, friends! I’m thrilled to announce a little blog/IG tour of sorts happening over the next couple of weeks. A few of my wonderful international sewing friends have agreed to do a feature of Sewing Happiness, and we’re doing a giveaway that includes a signed book + 45 euro gift certificate from the charming 1000 Stoff shop. I thought it might be a fun way to start off the year!

We’re keeping it loose and casual and I’m in the dark as much as you are in terms of what these amazing ladies will create and/or post. I’m so curious!!

Here’s the awesome line-up:
January 23 – Ute + Lara

January 24 – An of StraightGrain // Instagram

January 25 – Trine of Groovy Baby and Mama Trine of // Instagram

January 26 – Shelley of Bartacks and Singletrack // Instagram

January 30 – Annika of Näh Connection // Instagram

January 31 – Olu of Needle and Ted // Instagram

    Yeehaaa! You know it is the middle of summer over here, so I think you need to get a little bit chest thumpy and claim that World Tour Title right back again! Looking forward to seeing everyone’s posts.

      Yeehaaaa!!!! Well….world tour still sounds a bit too over-the-top to me, but it’s definitely clomping about in different parts of the globe :-). So excited to see your post, Shelley!! xoxo
