SMS Giveaway Day



Today is the Sew Mama Sew giveaway day! I have a charm pack of Moda's Bartholo-meow's Reef and four coordinating fat quarters to give away. 


This giveaway is open internationally, and all you have to do is leave a comment below (please leave an email address if it's not linked to your profile). If you need a topic to comment on, I'd love some new craft links or ideas for my GEMS girls club, but any comment will do. I'll randomly select a winner at the end of the week. 
Good luck!

Congratulations Nita - enjoy your prize!

Hi thanks for the chance to win. Craft ideas for girls? How about making some christmas cards? Washi tape bits, draw 'presents' (outline the tape bits, cross lines on it and a little knot) on the tape, write happy holidays, and done! Or how about making stamps with little blocks of wood and foam stickers, and stamp away (maybe even make some T-shirts with fabric paint)?

Oohlovely fabric. I just made some gorgeous felt badges/brooches with my children. We used a holly cookie cutter to give us the shape of a holly leaf. We cut it out in green felt, then used another green felt for the backing. We cut the backing a bit bigger all round than the first leaf shape. We sewed together along the mid line, and finished with a red button or bell for a berry!
