Hooray for Giveaway Day!

It's time once again for Sew Mama Sew's Giveaway Day! As usual I'm offering something I've made along with some supplies. I know you blog hoppers have a lot of ground to cover today so here's the goodies:

1 made-by-me Hummingbird wristlet
AND 
1 charm pack (42 5" precut squares) of Sherbet Pips

giveawaypack

The wristlet is from a Keyka Lou pattern and is currently my favorite thing to sew. I've made a few for the shop but this one is just for the giveaway! It's padded a bit so it works as a camera case or just as a cute little essentials bag. Also, I recently won some Sherbet Pips and thought I'd share the love!

giveawaywristlet  

All you have to do to have a chance to win is this: leave me a comment. Any comment. A nice one preferably. Perhaps about what you'd put in the wristlet and/or what you'd make with the charm pack.

Want a second chance? Just like me on facebook, then come back and leave a separate comment telling me you've done so. Pretty easy peasy, huh?

I'll choose one winner at random from all the comments on or around May 25th, then get the prizes sent out right away. 

Thanks for stopping by and have a great giveaway day!


UPDATE: Comments now closed to pick winner. Thanks everyone!

Jennadesigns said...

I'm so glad to hear that you like this pattern - I am thinking of getting it to make a camera case for my camera. I recently had to send it in to get it's flash fixed as I had put it in my daughter's diaper bag then dropped the bag on the floor (oops!).

Susan said...

I would love to win! I would give the hummingbird wristlet to my sister from another Mama, Judy. She loves hummingbirds and just had to have her beloved Boston Terrier put down. She could use some cheering up. The charm pack would be great, as I am (slowly) working on a Peace and Quiet book for my nephew and trying to only use scraps and little bits and pieces.

emma007 said...

Hi, okay, i love that little wristlet so much that i am going to shamelessly mention that it's my birthday on Friday and it would be an extra speccy thing to win something so sweet for it [picks pride up from floor].
Ahem, seriously, that is a very cool wristlet thing you have to give there, and oh, that fabric!
pleasey please pick me!
if i won i would firstly just lay out and admire the fabric, perhaps putting it in and out of the bag.
