Sew Mama Sew May Giveaway Day

Welcome if you're visiting to the first time, and hello to my regulars.  It's give away time over at Sew Mama Sew and I jumped at the chance to join in on the fun.  Since it's my birthday next week I wanted to celebrate with my readers by offering up these goodies.

I'm going to be giving away two prizes.  Both packs contain a fabric range that doesn't really need any introduction - Good Folks!  The reason I have decided to share this coveted fabric range with you is that the Good Folks Gods have been shining down on me lately and I have managed to acquire the last few prints to finish off my collection.  Happy dance!!

Prize 1:

Three fat eighths of Good Folks prints in my favourite colour pink.

Ric Rac owl embroidery panel

Two sets of vintage style buttons

Purse Frame Bag 8.5"x7" lined in dupion silk (handmade by me!).  

You can use it to store your notions or add a little chain and use it as an evening bag.

Prize 2:

Good Folks Fortune in Sea (12"x22") with matching zip & Gutterman thread

Make It Perfect - Versatile Wrap Skirt Pattern

Monaluna Shopping Tote 17"x14" by Green Bag Lady

HOW TO ENTER:

1.  Leave a comment below letting me know what sewing machine you use and whether you would buy it again.

2.   Leave a 2nd comment if you are or become a follower via Google Friend Connect, stating as such

3.   Leave a 3rd comment if you are or become a follower of me on Twitter (@DoloresALOL), stating as such

Remember to leave an email address or make sure you have one on your Google profile so that I can contact you if you are the winner.  

This competition is open to everyone internationally and will be open until May 25th, 5pm PST at which time two winners will be drawn randomly - the first drawn will win Prize 1, the second will win Prize 2.  The winners will be notified by email and announced on this post.

Good luck and thanks for stopping by!

I just saw over on Sew Mama Sew that I've made the top 10 finalists out of 200 entries!  Woo hoo!!  Now I need your vote, there are some pretty popular bloggers there so competition is going to be fierce especially if they have all their followers voting for them.  I hope I get votes because people actually like my bundle.  I am feeling unusually competitive right now!! :-)

If you have a moment would you mind heading over to SMS and voting for me, if you think I deserve it?

Here's a background on the competition.

SMS Are you the next Fat Quarter Idol?

I have to say the title of this competition had me intrigued.  I was thinking do they expect us to sing?  Luckily, no you don't!!  In a nutshell, you need to choose a 12 fabric bundle from their online shop and then Pin each fabric to Pinterest to a dedicated Board.  The theme for this week is Sweet Child of Mine.  The winner will then win a FQ set of their bundle and be promoted on the SMS blog.

Since I find using Pinterest pretty quick and easy I thought I would give this one a whirl.  I love my pinks and purples but I felt like doing something a little different.  I thought I'd pair a bright pink with yellow and orange. I've been seeing the pink and yellow combo around for a couple of weeks, and it's a combination I really love.  

Click here to go to this Board

I started with the Leaves and Berries Pink from Hello Pilgram and then just started matching up some prints that fit in with the colour scheme and then my solids.  I always try to pick fabrics I love and would buy anyway.  I'm so, so pleased with how this bundle came out, it's just so scrummy!!  I really want to win now because I'm dying to have this bundle!
