  • Giveaway Day 2

    TurtlePatternKit_HeatherBailey2

    I have new fabric strike-offs to go over today and a magazine ad due
    on Monday, along with kids starting school next week. (Can you believe
    that? August 5th.) Not to mention a church campout, a dinner party and
    more housewares to prep for the factory. It's going to be a busy
    weekend.

    So let's get right to business. Today is Day 02 of my month-long Giveaway Party. The prize for August 2nd is a Henrietta turtle sewing pattern and a turtle kit
    to go with it (winner's choice). Henrietta is one of our top sewing
    patterns. She's fun to make and all too cute as a pincushion or toy.

    You don't have to be in the U.S. to enter. We love all of you—and we
    know how to ship things overseas 😉 Be sure to enter your email address
    so we can contact you if you win. Watch for the winners to be announced
    at the bottom of each post. For more info on my giveaway madness, click here. Each day's giveaway closes at 11:59pm PST that day.

    Good luck, everyone.

    Psst—up next week, we have custom jewelry, paper craft craziness, big brands, big prizes. Don't forget to check in every day.

    Lolliphant470Sh Henrietta and I have a new friend at the studio. Meet Effie,
    keeper of pink pins and patron of happy thoughts. Doing tricks and back
    flips is Effie's younger brother, Ollie, the circus star.  

    Several religions
    claim that the world rests on the back of an elephant, standing on a
    tortoise. Though neither is ready to carry the weight of the world, Effie & Henrietta are happy to hold some pins for you. Kudos to them for knowing their limits.

    These sweet little elephants make fun baby toys too — great for girls and for boys. I dream of a turtle & elephant mobile.
