Sewing Spaces: This giveaway is huge, I say. Huge. November 3, 2010 18:37 312 Comments
Here it is: The giveaway that takes the cake. It does. In fact, I want to keep this giveaway for myself. Every single item. Yes, indeed. But I refuse to give in to such a selfish impulse. I do.
This is an amazing giveaway. It is. Totally. Completely. It includes:
Colette's gorgeous Crepe pattern. It's sweet. It's easy. It has that 1940s flair. And perhaps best of all, it's for beginners! Aren't you happy about that, fledglings? I am.
Next, Ann of Gorgeous Fabrics is generously supplying the fabric to make your Crepe frock. And it's not just any fabric. No. It isn't. It is luscious royal navy wool crepe. Think how wonderful it will feel.
And Sunni, the Cupcake Goddess herself, has made a cute pin cushion especially for our very lucky winner. It's the cherry size, yes, the one right on the tip top. It is so adorable.
But there's more. Really: Revlon Cherries in the Snow lipstick and nail polish. True vintage colors introduced in 1953. This color was a cult best seller in the 1950s, and it's just as glamorous today.
So. You are surely asking: How do I enter? How? Well. It's easier than baking a cake. And quicker. Just leave a comment. Amuse me. Tell me why you want to win. Tell me if you read the blog regularly. Let me know what you like best about Sewing Spaces. Do so by Tuesday, November 9 at 5 pm PDT. Then I'll use a random number generator to pick the winner. And someone will be getting a very fabulous package in the mail.
And a warm-and-toasty thank-you to Sarai of Colette patterns, Ann of Gorgeous Fabrics and Sunni of The Cupcake Goddess for making this terrific giveaway possible!

I hope there’s still time for me to enter… I’d love to win this because I was thinking of taking part in Gertie’s sew-along and I’d like to add more blue to my closet, so this would be perfect. Plus I want to try and be a little more lady-like so the lipstick and nail polish would be great too. And those little pincushions are adorable!
I’m not a regular reader of your blog, but I went and read some of your sewing spaces posts, they’re really interesting! It’s alway nice to see how people organise their sewing place. Plus it gives me ideas for when I can have one of my own again.
Thank you very much for this giveaway!

wow, I just found out about this giveaway in the knick of time! I have been learning how to sew via library books and trial and error for the past year or so. I haven’t got enough room for my own sewing space yet—but someday hopefully I will graduate from the kitchen table. I was just thinking how much I would like to sew the crepe dress for this holiday season—and in wool—alas, I can’t afford wool. But, perhaps this will be my first giveaway win:)

Woops! Nearly mised this fabulous giveaway. I love your sewing spaces series because, mine not being very satisfactory at present, they inspire me and make me dream a bit (yes, really)…
Thank you for giving someone the chance to get these wonderful pattern, fabric and pincushion!

What an amazing give away! I’ve just started sewing and would love a chance to try this dress. I am currently on a very strict sewing budget, so my fabric choices are very limited. I’ve been wanting to work with wool crepe for a few months! I hope to win!

Hello,
This is a gorgeous giveaway. I needed inspiration to sew again and this is it!

I am literally drooling over that pattern (which rather makes a person wonder what I plan to do with it). So. I have never read your blog before, but I’m sure as heck subscribed now. I like your wall of patterns. I’m almost sure I’m in the time limit, but I’m kind of bad with time changes so maybe I’m off (in which case, sorry). :)
