Giveaway!!! (closed)

Oh my! What fun!




Sew Mama Sew's annual Giveaway Day has arrived!  This is my first year participating and I finally feel like I can sew well enough to contribute, so here goes:

I am giving one random commenter a gathered zipper clutch made from Joel Dewberry fabric.  It's that lovely turquoise and rust colored one below.

These are made by me using Noodlehead's Gathered Clutch tutorial and are my staple Christmas gift this year.  I would encourage you to try one yourself as they are a very rewarding project with relatively easy steps to follow.  To see how crazy about them I am and for a mini review of the tutorial, look here.

Now, how to win one!
Comment and tell me your fave project or tutorial and give me a link, if you have one, to where I can find it online.  If you don't have a fave project, just tell me something about yourself.

I NEED A WAY TO CONTACT YOU, SO LEAVE AN EMAIL ADDRESS IF YOU DON'T HAVE A PROFILE OR BLOG.

I'll be picking a random comment winner using random.org
and BONUS!  
I'll be giving the first commenter a clutch as well!  (because the very first comment always gets the shaft but someone has to start it)

Good luck and have fun entering all the giveaways through the 17th!

  3. Those are really cute!

    My favorite project is making stuffed octopodes, but I just wing it, so I don't have a pattern, I'm afraid.

  9. I was hoping to have already made the clutch for some friends. I'll get to it eventually. And lately, I've been making a few camera straps. I have seen a few tutorials around, but have pretty much combined a few of them together to make my own. :)

    ReplyDelete
  16. I've been wanting to try making one of these, but I hate following patterns so I've been too lazy. I do love Kate Conklin's Skittles Quilt pattern though, you can find it in lots of online fabric shops if you google it. I bought mine as a pdf direct from Kate.

    ReplyDelete
  38. This clutch pattern is one of my favorites online! I have yet to make it though, so I would LOVE yours!! I really should follow your lead and make a bunch for Christmas gifts. As for what else I would make, I like to make mini-quilts and put them in frames. They can be done quickly, and framing them cuts out the time taken to bind them, plus they are easy for the recipient to hang!

    ReplyDelete
  39. Great little bag - I love that you are giving one to your first commenter. Very cool. One of my fav links is http://tearosehome.blogspot.com/. She always has fun repurposed ideas.

  53. My favorite tutorial I believe was on Sew Mama Sew last Christmas for making a tote bag. I wrote the measurements and instructions on a note pad but did not write where I had gotten it from. It is a great size and perfect for carrying on my shoulder when shopping.

    ReplyDelete
  54. My favorite is probably Made By the Mama Monster's nursing cover. http://madebythemamamonster.blogspot.com/2008/04/nursing-cover-tutorial.html

  63. My fave project right now, cause this is the one I am working on is the jeans wallet: http://www.instructables.com/id/Jeans-Cuff-Wallet/step5/Figuring-Out-Pockets/

    I think it is pretty easy and you can always find old jeans. Thanks for the wonderful giveaway and I think I may try this myself.

  90. Love this clutch. I bookmarked a tutorial that looks similar to this during the Handmade Holidays series but never got around to making one for myself. Love the turquoise and rust. Hm... my favorite tutorial? I've been making crayon rolls like mad the week for Christmas presents for little artists. Maybe not my all-time favorite, but I'm sure getting a TON of mileage out of it this year! Thanks for the great giveaway!

  104. One of my favorite tutorials is the scissor case on Lynette Anderson's website. I add a pair of scissors and have a very cute gift. I am glad to hear the clutch is easy as I plan on making some for my daughter's bridesmaids and was getting nervous about them turning out well. Nice of you to give the first commenter a clutch too. They never do win. Merry CHristmas.

  111. I've made a couple of these exact clutches for holiday gifts, but none for me! I love the fabric you chose.

    Noodlehead is hands down my #1 favorite place for tutorials. I've made at least half of them already.

    I also made a couple of these lined boxy pouches for gifts this year: http://prettymodern.typepad.com/its_a_pretty_modern_life/2009/08/zippered-box-pouch-pattern-and-tutorial-fully-lined-with-photos.html

  124. I've made about 20 gathered clutches from this pattern for xmas gifts! Love the pattern. I love your fabric selection. Another great tutorial is the fabric bucket from the Pink Penguin blog. Super easy and you can make it bigger, change the placement of the handles and you have a bag. I made tons of them last year out of old denim jeans for gifts - very well received.

  125. Cute, cute! I've been eyeballing that tutorial and have just bought fabric to make one for a friend.

    I don't have any go-to tutorials, though I tend to browse a lot of them for inspiration. I've mostly been playing with quilting lately, so I've been spending lots of time on flickr and looking at quilty blogs.

    Thank you for the awesome giveaway!:)
