GIVEAWAY CLOSED
WINNER WILL BE ANNOUNCED SOON
Who doesn't love a good giveaway! I'm joining in the fun with Sew Mama Sew and giving away some goodies this week. Drum roll please....I will be doing not one, but two giveaways! Yay!
For those of you who are new to my lil old blog, let me introduce myself. My name is Jo and I am a fabricaholic! I live in England and probably like you, I love making stuff! I teach sewing to adults and sell home made goodies online and at local markets. Here are some of my favourite creations.
 |
| Top Row: 1. Silver Lining Pillow 2. Cherry Blossoms Quilt 2nd Row: 3. Little Red Quilt 4. Hoo's in the Forest 5. Petite Street 3rd Row: 6. Hidden Squares Pillow 7. Little Red Dolly Quilt 4th Row: 8. Market Apron 9. Blue Birdy Mini Quilt 10. Quirky Glasses Case |
So the first giveaway is a small bundle of some really cute Japanese themed fabric. I spent 3 months living in Japan years ago and totally loved it. I think this gave me the love of travel and the desire to live in different cultures and countries.
For your chance to win this yummy bundle:
- Leave a comment telling me where in the world you would love to live and why or what you would make with this fabric!
- For an extra chance become a follower and leave another comment telling me you're following!
For the second giveaway hop on over here to the next post!

Thanks for stopping by, hope you liked what you saw. Feel free to take a good look around! :-)

Where I would love to live - here in NZ :P Because it's so isolated here, it can feel like there are fewer opportunities but the world is getting smaller everyday, and I wouldn't sacrifice being close to my family for any other country/city in the world. I did try it once, though. :P

ReplyDeleteI actually would love to live in Japan. I thought I had a chance to go teach there last school year, but it didn't work out. I had been really psyched to go and uber disappointed when it didn't work out. Their culture just seems so amazing and I feel like I would really fit in over there. I hope I get to go and stay there one day (soon).
