Fabric Combo Winners (finally!)

Update: I’ve had a several orders come through for the pattern and fabrics to make these bags. A reminder that the lining fabric requires 3/4 yard. I’m contacting those of you that have already ordered so no worries. Happy Sewing! K

What a month. I’ve completed 5 project submissions in the last 6 weeks (3 for magazines and two for really cool books, not my own). The last was mailed today. Lots of very fun things to come, can not wait to share!

I did an initial filter as the entries came through, tonight I went back through them, pulled bolts of fabric off the shelves and obsessed WAY TOO LONG about the whole thing. It was extremely difficult. You guys are amazing and so inspiring. You can see all the entries on the original post.

I selected three grand prize winners (including Coralee’s shown at the top). I’m changing the prize from the fabric and pattern to a gift certificate equal to the value of the materials. It’s summer and I’ve got raspberry jam to make! Each grand prize winner will receive a $40 gift certificate to spend however they choose.

I selected 5 more combos that I also really liked and expanded the award pool to give each of those winners a $15 gift certificate.

And last but not least, 3 random winners will receive the same fabric I used to make the birthday party favor bags along with a copy of the Easiest Accessory Bags Ever pattern.

The first two images show the fabric selected for the outside of the bag, the third is the lining.

    How do you do It??? All i can say to you is that you are one amazingly talented woman with great resources! Thanks for your great blog and store.
    Please tell me what your fav sewing machine is and/or what you would buy if you were in the market for one that is good for simple sewing/crafting and free style quilting and isn’t too heavy for transporting to quilting classes………
    thanks for any suggestions.
