It’s been one whole year since I started blogging and sewing for that matter. I think this means that I need to have my own giveaway to celebrate.
I guess I’ve come a long way in one year. Sewing has pretty much consumed my life at this point, and I love it (most of the time). I think when people say that you need a hobby, they’re right. It’s really good to have something to look forward to doing, and feeling good about – except when you mess up terribly, of course. Even so, it’s better that I’m doing something productive.
Ok. Here we go. I had a hard time deciding what to give away. I asked my peeps and everyone agreed that it should something unique. Something that I make that is a little different. There aren’t many because I get most of my ideas from other people!
We decided on an owl. These are the first I made, so they aren’t perfect but they’re still cute and definitely have personality.
The lucky winner will get to choose between Hazel and Hilda.
Here’s Hazel:
and here’s Hilda:
All you have to do is leave a comment on this post to enter. And of course, if you post about this give away on your blog then you get a second entry. Just let me know that you did so. My computer expert husband will do the random number generator thingy to pick the winner.
I’ll leave it open until Thursday April 9th at 5pm. Be sure to leave an email address too!
And, if you want to see another great giveaway – check out Lily Haven. I love everything! It’s seeing these extremely talented people that make me want to try harder to be a good sewer!
Good luck! Thanks to everyone who reads my blog!

I received my first credit loans when I was 25 and it helped my family a lot. However, I require the auto loan once again.
