    Wow, thank you for your baby-naming stories and input.
    What great comments! I promise that there aren't too many more big
    stories I've kept to myself. Just designs. Designs that aren't out on
    products yet. But, I have lots of that coming soon. Mostly fabric,
    fabric, fabric.

    It's Friday, and for today our giveaway prize is a copy of my Most-Crazy-Popular-Ever sewing pattern Effie & Ollie Elephant, along with the winner's choice of elephant kit which includes all of the fabric, interfacing and trim for one elephant. A $19 value.

    Comment to enter today's contest. Be sure to include your email address
    so we can contact you if you win. Today's giveaway closes at 11:59pm PST on Friday 8/9/13. Watch for the winner to be announced within a day or
    two at the bottom
    of the post.

  • Paper Moon

    Check out these super-fun paper stitcheries from Belinda Moon of Australia. She
    starts with colorful craft papers and adds rows of free-form stitching
    which adds visual movement—and panache.

    I discovered Belinda's work in the HB Paper Crafts Flickr Group. I was
    thrilled to see such a perfect and adorable use for my scrapbook papers. They almost
    look like they are made out of fabric, don't they?

    If you think these are fantastic,
    like I do, brighten Belinda's day with a kind comment here, or at her blog. She has an Etsy store too, with birds, fish, pirate ships, robots—all sorts of
    great graphic pieces to decorate with.

    Show Belinda some craft-love.

    NOTE: Such great projects are being posted in the HB Flickr groups—wow, you guys!
    I'm going to make a renewed effort to spotlight some here and there.
    Thank you for posting your projects. I get to craft vicariously through
    you.
