~Giveaway Now CLOSED ~
Giveaway Day is here! Thank you for visiting and I hope you have time to enter many of the great giveaways hosted at Sew, Mama, Sew. I mainly blog about sewing for my children & myself and offer pattern reviews from many e-patterns that I sew. Hundreds of free tutorials are linked below my header if you need some inspiration. I also enjoy frugal shopping, cooking, crafting, gardening & homesteading.
I'd like to offer a copy of Girl's World by Jennifer Paganelli. This book is packed with simple, beautiful patterns for girls clothing, accessories & home decor. I've looked through the pages but the patterns are unused and uncut. I own two, so this one is up for grabs!
