I first started sewing as a little girl. My mom taught me counted-cross stitch and signed me up for a sewing machine class. At the time, it didn't really stick. But here I am--more than 20 years later--loving it! I reconnected with sewing because of my dear friend Cobble. About a year ago, we decided to take a quilting class together and the rest, as they say, is history. I've found that my absolute favorite part is choosing fabrics and playing with color combinations. Browse through my blog to see.
Up for the winning is one gathered clutch (made following the tutorial from Noodlehead). I'm working on my giveaway clutch right now, so I don't have a picture to share, but here is a picture of one that I made for my sister:
*Update: I've selected and cut the fabrics for this clutch. I can't wait to see the finished product... it should be cute when it's done!
To enter this giveaway, leave a comment introducing yourself and sharing a little bit about your own crafting history. I will choose a winner after 3PM EST on May 26th (make sure that your email address is on your blog/profile so that I can contact you).
Yes, I'll ship internationally!
Do I count? My name is M's.
ReplyDeleteI've been crafting and doing fine arts since I was little. I've done anything from sculpting to pen and ink drawing to sewing. Sewing is one thing I don't really have time for so it would be nice to win a hand sewn item by one of my crafty talented awesome friends ;)
These zippered pouches are so gorgeous, thanks for the chance to win!
ReplyDeleteI've grown up in an artist family so I've been surrounded by such stuff since childhood! plus the convent school I attended taught needlework and crafts which I loved...I used to sew clothes for my Barbie dolls after I learnt to use a needle and thread...now I'm sewing clothes for myself! :D

hi! i crochet and quilt and homeschoool. would love to win! thank yoU!
ReplyDeleteLove these clutches and the fabrics you chose are gorgeous.
ReplyDeleteI am Sonja and have lived in lower Alabama all my life. My love for crafting (especially sewing) came from my mom and grandmother. They both are excellent seamstresses and I can remember, from a very early age, loving the smell of fresh new bolts of fabric and the sound of a running sewing machine.

My grandma taught me to crochet when I was in about 4th grade and my aunt taught me cross stitch in the 5th. I started really machine sewing April 2010 when I had to make throw pillows and I haven't stopped yet.
ReplyDeleteHi there - I started quilting since my mom started and wanted help - I thought it was all for old ladies, but now my fabric stash is bigger than hers! The zippered pouches are cute - I want to make one but my list of to-do is long! Thanks for the giveaway.
ReplyDeleteHi, I'm Stephanie. I first learned to sew as a young girl. I love dabbling with all things crafty. I mostly sew clothes, but am working on branching out a little more. My latest crafting experience has been with paint and mod podge.
ReplyDeleteI'd love a chance to win! i've been quilting for almost a year now, and i love doing baby quilts and doll quilts, especially since my kids are little and i don't often have much time to focus on a large project!

ReplyDeleteI'm 20 and I'm a part-time student - I took sewing classes when I was in middle school but I never sewed again later until last year for Christmas I asked my parents to buy me a sewing machine and so they did, and I started my new addiction of sewing bags and other accessories!

My mom taught me to sew and I made some lop-sided shorts in a high school home ec class, but it wasn't until about 5 years ago that I discovered how much I love making things for friends & family. Thanks for the giveaway! leahclaireh(at)gmail(dot)com
ReplyDeleteYellow polka dots! Sorry, got distracted...
ReplyDeleteI started cross-stitching when I was 12. That first one remains undone, but I've done plenty others since. I started sewing and quilting a few years back, but am still firmly in the "dabbling" category for those. :)
How cute! :) My grandma taught me to sew when I was in 3rd grade. I still love it! Just opened my first etsy shop online selling aprons. Having a great time networking and meeting others who love the sew as well! I joke and say that it's cheaper than therapy. But as a stay at home mom, I need to do something fun for myself once and awhile. Nap time is my time to do that!
ReplyDeleteThanks for the giveaway!

I've always been attracted to all things artsy, but it wasn't until this past year that I've really gotten into crafting. I've learned nearly everything I've needed to know for projects from reading blogs. Right now I have been mainly focusing on sewing projects for babies. I'm hoping to learn to do other things with sewing and hopefully dabble some in knitting and quilting.

Oh, I love this clutch tutorial! I want to make one too.
ReplyDeleteI don't know when I started crafting. I know my mother sewed and did some crochet. I always tried to learn but I never got into until a few years ago. Since then I have just exploded into the crafting side of life. I spin yarn, make book and I am starting to do some pottery too.

ReplyDeletei recently picked up sewing again shortly before my daughter was born 9 mos ago. I've been having fun sewing clothes and making my first quilt.
My love of crafting started with home ec class in the 7th grade. We needed to choose one book mark disgn and I ended up makeing all three in cross stitch.
ReplyDeleteI've been crafty since I was little. I was always saving everything because I could create with it. My mom would try to throw egg cartons and such away when I wasn't looking! Now that I'm older, things haven't really changed - I just have the money to support my addition now! lol

ReplyDeleteAlso, hi! My name is Abby, I've been sewing/crafting for the past couple months. I really love sewing but my sewing machine is broken right now D: I started because I got stuck in a sewing class in my high school and then realized how much I enjoyed it. So far I've made a case for my laptop and awesome ninja turtle hats.
I have been sewing since I was 12 I made my wedding dress and all of my prom dresses. But for some reason I flunked sewing in high school. If I remember right it had to do with the way my teacher wanted me to put in a zipper. I did not like her way I did it the way my mother taught me (she was a seemstree for 30 years). Love your clutch don't have as much time to sew as I would like to. LOL never enough hours in the day.

More recently I reconnected with crafting when my boss had a baby and I made her a custom collegiate themed burp cloth. I had been longing for something productive while my husband studied for the CPA and realized just how much I love crafty kind of stuff!
From there it's been a wonderful journey into sewing, quilting, crochet, bow making, made a valence, baby blankets and such and I just love it!
thanks!

ReplyDeleteMy name is Deborah and I live in Atlanta, GA. I'm 58 years old, and I made my first quilt when I was 52 years old when my granddaughter was born. Since then I've only made maybe 4 or 5 quilts, so I'm still very much a beginner and learning something every time I sit in front of the sewing machine. It would be awesome to win something that has already been made and doesn't require me sitting down and figuring out how to do it. This prize would truly be a gift to me.

ReplyDeleteI love the noodlehead clutch. :) Let's see, my mom taught me to sew when I was six. I got a sewing machine for Christmas that year (I still have it, 22 years later), and my mom says I sewed on it for three days straight. She also taught me basic crochet, and just a couple of years ago I learned how to knit, after wanting to for YEARS. I have so many little crafting stories my mom has told me, and I love remembering them and sharing that with her.
ReplyDeleteThank you for the lovely giveaway!
Oh, that fabric is so pretty! Love it!
ReplyDeleteI learnt to sew when I was a child, then forgot it for a decade or so, and taught myself again when I was at university as I was fed up of sleeves always being too short for me (I'm quite tall). These days I make lots of vintage styled garments, mainly from the 1950's - so much fun! :-)

My first sewing was a small purse with a zipper, Grandma taught me..maybe age 6-7. Since that time always interested in making something with fabric.
