Good morning friends!

What a week, what a weekend!! Reaching 500 readers mark on my birthday! You really made my day so this is my special thank you. 5 giveaways for you, all of my faves, now 500 stong and counting.

Since my favorite craft medium is fabrics, I've put together a little sewing kit for you.
I'm including:
 - Melissa Averino's book "Small Stash Sewing" (foreword by Amy Butler) - See editorial review below:
"Sewing with designer fat quarters is a great way to stretch your dollar without sacrificing quality. Now, Melissa Averinos, the face behind the popular Yummy Goods blog and one of the newest Free Spirit fabric designers, brings you a collection of projects dedicated specifically to making the most of your designer fat quarters.
From belts to handbags, from children‘s gifts to a laundry hamper bag, and much, much more, Small Stash Sewing gives you 25 sewing projects to make unique pieces that showcase your favorite, longed-for designer fabrics"
 - 4 coordinated fat quarters in fun colorful summer prints
 - Coordinated buttons
So not only will you get a fun book with pretty projects for yourself or those you love, you also get a starter on at least one of those projects

  12. Congrats on 500! Wahoo!

    I blog and follow blogs to learn how to make the stuff I admire in stores. Since I started, I've been learning to sew, paint, crochet and redecorate. I love that the amazing, talented women out there make otherwise intimidating projects accessible and leave me feeling like, "Hey ... I can do that."
