In the meantime, I'm starting another giveaway for the new One Yard Wonders book. I'm very excited to be part of it!
 | |
| My name is in the index! |
 |
| Here's my bio! Written while Amelia was still in utero! |
 |
| My project! Woot! |
Now, don't all go out and make my project! I have a few in mind to make though. I'm definitely intrigued by the child's chair - page 232. One yard of fabric? Really? Here are some others I want to try:
Retro bag: Page 50
Organizer Wallet: Page 56
Tuxedo dress: Page 68
Last minute tunic: Page 333
I'll be sure and share when I try some of these!
This book would make a GREAT Christmas present. Buy someone a yard of fabric to go with it so they can start right in!
Anyway... I will leave this giveaway open until Sunday at 5PM. I'll announce the winner Sunday night or Monday morning. Just leave me a comment. Tell me something you are proud to be involved with or something most people do not know about you. Or just say, "Hi," because it's almost Christmas and you are busy.
:D Thanks for entering!
Not many of my online sewing friends know that I just finished a graduate degree from Harvard. It's something that I am proud of, but doesn't really come up in sewing conversation too often!
ReplyDeleteP.S. I miss the snow in New England now that I live in the PNW! Hope you are having a white Christmas. :)
I'm proud to be an army wife - being part of this community is really challenging, but very rewarding! Thanks for the great giveaways!

ReplyDeletecongrats with publishing! :)
ReplyDeleteHi things are manic here - just one more son to come home and we'll have a full house! Just the way I like it for Christmas!
ReplyDeleteThanks for a great giveaway!
Leaving tomorrow for a 14 hour drive. So worth it to spend Christmas with family.
ReplyDeleteI had a photo published in a calendar. It was October and I had that month up for many, many months!

i'm the party-hoster among my friends, and host pretty much all of our get-togethers... and i've got our big Ladies Christmas Party on Monday!!
ReplyDeleteThis book looks awesome!! Congrats on your contribution! My thing that most people don't know is that I don't like chocolate. Not in any way, shape, or form. Thats hard to explain around the holidays when it is everywhere!!! :-)
ReplyDeleteThanks & Merry Christmas!!

Congratulations! That is very exciting! I actually just had work accepted for an upcoming publication that I am very proud to be a part of! I can't wait to see it in print! jinglesells at gmail dot com
ReplyDeleteI'm frantically trying to finish up Christmas gifts. Thanks for the giveaway!

This book looks so great! Not sure I will get to sew anything for at least another few weeks....we are moving the two days before Christmas!! eeek...that is next weekend!!!!
ReplyDeleteSuch an awesome looking book, it has been on my Amazon wish list for a little bit. Congratulations on being in print!
ReplyDeleteCongrats on the book. We actually got this for my mother-in-law for Christmas. I hope I get one too. :)
ReplyDeleteOne thing most online friends don't know about me is that I play the violin, and I'm very involved in my little community orchestra. It's hard sometimes to take an evening every week to go, but it's so worth it and it keeps me going when the rest of life seems overwhelming.
How exciting! Thanks for hosting the giveaway :)
ReplyDeleteWow! Excited for you :). Thanks for the chance!
ReplyDeleteGreat gift idea you gave, perfect with a yard of fabric for a sewing friend or someone who'd like to start. I'm enjoying the "what people don't know about me comments" there's some amazing women out there graduating from Harvard and being in orchestra's. Go girl power!!
ReplyDeleteHow about I wrote, recorded and produced my first CD in 2002? Most of my on-line friends don't know that I'm a musician! :) Caren

Great job, Keri!
ReplyDeleteI'm not really involved in anything because I'm too busy juggling being a mom, wife and working. But in my spare time I try to be crafty. I'm making my first quilt. All on my own! Well with a little guidance from Tara C.
Enjoy the holidays!

It's so great that you're a part of this book! I love the first one, and I will definitely get this one, too--and make your project!!! I think it would be a great wedding gift for my brother next June.
ReplyDeleteAnd because I've already been long-winded, I'll just say "Hi!".
Keri! Really proud of you! What an accomplishment! What a dream come true! Can't wait to see it in person! Love Amanda (Matteson...lol)
ReplyDeleteCongrats on being in a book!
ReplyDeleteI'm new to this quilting thing, so I'm excited. I have been amazed at how generous everyone is with these giveaways and hope that I can be a part of it next year!
Things about me that no one knows...hmmm...I love Brussels sprouts! :)
Thanks again for the chance to win this book; have a fantastic weekend! :)

Busy finishing Christmas presents so thanks for the giveaway.
ReplyDeleteMost people don't know what a mess my sewing studio is. I seem to be able to keep everything else organized, but that room quickly reverts back to disarray. I think I need more room. Or more organizational tools. (That's what I like to tell myself anyway....)
ReplyDeleteI am most proud of the fact that I stay home and keep my little 4 year old granddaughter while her mommy is at work. As a mom myself I had to work out of the home as well. I am so blessed now to be able to spend this time with my little granddaughter. I would love to win this book. I have lots of 1 yard cuts in my stash!!
ReplyDeleteCongrats on being in this great book! Have a wonderful Christmas!
ReplyDeleteNot many people know I used to be a belly dancer.
ReplyDeleteNice to visit your blog. Thanks for the giveaway!
ReplyDeleteCongratulations! Sounds like a great book :) I'm proud to be a part of our middle school-age Wyldlife program. Thank you. mamalusco at ortelco dot net
ReplyDeleteCongratulations on being in the book! I already bought my own copy but I'd love to gift one to my crafty friend Bridget - my sewing partner in crime, she always keeps me inspired! (and I'm very much in love with my copy so I don't think I'd have the heart to lend it out in the next month or so!)
ReplyDeleteHow cool!! Congrats on such a cool thing! Something most of my online friends don't know about me is that I am also a singer. I sing with my wonderful hubby, usually in churches. It makes me very joyful.
ReplyDeleteThanks for the chance to win this neato book!

I'm happy to be involved in a tiny quilt bee. 3 people. We are making a quilt for a couple and their new baby. It is their 1st christmas with the baby and they've recently moved (away from us). They have no family around and are making new friends. We figured if they had a baby quilt for the new boy from some old friends that feel like family, they could see that there is lots of love being sent from afar.
ReplyDeleteCongratulations on having two projects in this book. Thanks for a chance at the giveaway! :)
