Christmas Design Competition

Fancy winning a Memory Craft 5900QC (RRP £799) and having your tutorial published in Cloth Magazine?

Fiona over at the Sewing Directory has a fantastic competition running at the moment which is really worth checking out if you like to come up with your own designs/tutorials for your projects.

All you need to do is to submit a unique tutorial or pattern for making something related to Christmas, whether it is a Christmas decoration, stocking, advent calendar or something that could be given as a Christmas present.

All the info is available here. With the wintery start to September and my kids already busy writing their Santa list (what is that about???), this competition is a very timely one for me....... So, my creative buddies, get your pencils out and get working on your entry! Entries are open internationally although some of the prizes are only available to peeps in the UK and Ireland, and the deadline is 20th October 2011.

Have fun!!!!

New Year's Challenge - I need your help!

OK, so in this post I am shamelessly asking for your help!

I found a fab challenge through a blog I read and decided I would like to take part. If you get selected as one of the finalists, you get to work with one of 12 amazing crafting bloggers - what a fantastic opportunity!

I entered my Charlotte Bag as my initial project - I am really proud of it, its all my own design, and I love the shape of it and the long strap.

So I would really love if you could do just 2 things for me:

1. I know I have lots of regular readers who are not signed in as "followers" of this blog. I would really love if you could follow the link in the sidebar to Follow my blog.

2. Click on THIS LINK for the competition site.

Then scroll down through the thumbnails and click on the photo of my bag (its no. 56) to link back here.



Thanks so much!

Sarah

PS. - I am working on something nice for a giveaway next week - keep an eye on the blog and/or my Facebook page for news!
