100th post giveaway!!!

And now, the moment you've all been waiting for...

what's that?! You haven't even thought about it at all??... okay fine. Well here it goes anyway...

I'm so excited!!!

What I have up for grabs as a thank you to one of my wonderful readers is one thing sewn by me. Anything of your choice.


Maybe you want a dress for your little girl:
Or an outfit for your little boy:

Or a shirt for your daughter:

Or a skirt suit for your daughter: (shhh! Don't tell Liah, but I made her this for her birthday this Thursday. It has a matching purse!)
Or yourself: (It's hard to tell what it looks like, but I made the skirt and jacket I am wearing. plus bonus fun fact: here's Amy 25-30lbs heavier...)


Or some cute little shorts for your daughter (there is also a pants variation):

Or a Halloween costume for your child:

Or a bag for you: (hard to tell what it looks like, but other varieties are here and here... I didn't actually make those two, but I was the teacher!)

Or a cute apron:

Or a skirt for yourself, or a shirt, or a nursing cover, or..... whatever! The list goes on and on! These are just a few examples of things I have made. I have a huge pattern collection and of course fabrics and sizes are negotiable.

So how do you enter this fabulous giveaway??

There are 3 ways: (just to clarify, for certain people like my favorite sister, you don't have to do all three, these are just ways to get additional entries)

2. Follow my blog, and leave a separate comment saying that you are a follower.
3. Blog about my giveaway and leave me a separate comment.
The giveaway will close at 11:59pm on Sunday, September 27th!

Vanessa said...

I want to win one of those cute bags. Wow, Amy you are so talented.

Andre said...

I want the hardest thing. I won't win because I never do so here goes: Remember that material I bought 2-3 years ago that was black with pink stripes that I want to make a suit with? Wouldn't it be cool if you made it for me? If not, can I borrow the pattern?

Janna G said...

So hard to choose! I think I would love a suit though. I already feel very lucky to have some amazing things made buy you. I would love to add to my collection.

i love the clothes you made for Clark. Just wondering, do you make bedding or curtains? I have an aunt who wants some and who'd be willing to pay. (provided i don't win the giveaway, of course :) )

Hello! I am river's sister-in-law and I'm from Brazil but I live in Spokane WA. I love all sorts of crafts but sewing is definitely above my skill level! I loved your girl dresses and I just had a baby girl. She is 3 months old this Friday and she would look adorable in one of your dresses. It was great to see all your beautiful work and I will be a follower from now on. I hope a new friend can also win! Thanks for sharing!

Ben and Alissa said...

I would love a cute bag!! (or an apron, I was actually just looking online for some cute aprons last night!) I can't believe you've sewn all this stuff! Uh-mazing!

Shayla said...

Seriously, I love this talent!! Why can't I have this talent and be good at it and like it? I'll settle for a chance at winning something you make, though. The bag is cute...but so is a costume for a kiddo. Hmmm...choices, choices...

Shayla said...

...and NOW I'm a follower! :-)

Lisa Christine said...

Hmmmm....can you sew pillows? I am in the process of redecorating the upstairs and I am in need of some beautiful pillows for Lorelai's bed :)

Congrats on 100!

From a fellow clarinetist - I would love a skirt in wonderful autumn colors. I am a bigger gal and it is so difficult to find well made skirts that fit well and have beautiful patterns in my size. Your designs are fabulous! Amazing how you find the time with your kiddos.

The Jensen Family said...
