Sarah Fielke - yes that Sarah of Material Obsession fame has launched a new venture... SEWN. And to help her celebrate the big June launch - there's a blog party. Not being one to miss a party - we are joining in! And it wouldn't be a party without some gifts would it?
In Sarah's words,
The website will have just about
everything you can think of that you would want online as a sewer.
There are forums, online advice from industry experts, conversion
charts, colour wheels, free patterns and class listings.
There will be interviews with all your
favourite designers, quilters, patterns makers and authors. There will
be tutorials with me and with other sewers from here and overseas,
podcasts and coverage from shows and articles about all maner of
exciting things.
Best of all, there are great unique
gadgets - Fabricmatcher, which is an online tool which lets you match
patterns to fabrics and see what your project will look like without
sewing a stitch, and Find Fabric, which is the niftiest thing that will
find the fabric you are looking for without you having to search for it
for hours on the internet. It's so clever it even searches shops in
your vacinity first to save you on international postage. How cool is
that?
Plus there will be an online buy and sell
area called SEWiNg, which is where you can sell the stuff you sew to
the people out there who don't sew - and some of the ones who do :)
Sound cool?
So I am giving away the following...
One of these... The Saucy Apron Recipe. Now available in the Made by Miffy Store, Etsy and at the Retailers in the Left Side bar!
And a kit of pre cut fabrics so you can make one of these... An Apron in an Hour, using super cool Miss America's tutorial. That would be Jona - but I think she would kind of like being known to all us Aussies as Miss America!
To win one of my prizes - just leave a comment here. And after that - go visit SEWN to check it out. If it is not live yet - just keep up to date with all the participating blogs here at Sarah's place We are all doing giveaways so join in and help Sarah celebrate. She's a super cool chickie!
Winners will be drawn here on June 8! Party Day!
