Welcome! I am hosting a giveaway this week in conjunction with
Sew Mama Sew. The prize is a $50 Gift Certificate to my shop to be used in 2015. You can purchase merchandise or use it toward a custom item – memory pillow, T Shirt blanket, baby clothes blanket, or any of the other items I sew.
THIS GIVEAWAY IS NOW CLOSED! OUT OF 109 ENTRIES, RANDOM.ORG SELECTED #108. THE WINNER IS BONNIW AND SHE HAS BEEN EMAILED! THANK YOU ALL!
If you are here for the first time, I’d like to share a little information about me and my business.
I am a custom sewing studio, a manufacturing plant of one.
I sew to meet your needs.
Custom sewing – T Shirt Memory Quilts, Memory Pillows, Totes and more
Finished products include practical solutions for busy families.
Fabric I love: Classic, retro, eco-friendly, vintage, fun!
Handmade means it passes through my hands – fun for me and quality for you!
You can read more about me here. The short story is that I am an engineer by training, a mom by nature, and a sewist by passion. (Does that make it sound like I love sewing more than my kids?)
To enter my giveaway, you only need to enter your name and email in the form below. International entries are welcome. Please note, the Gift Certificate is for a total value of $50, including shipping. You are welcome to purchase a more expensive item and I will apply the $50 toward your purchase.
Because I am social by nature, I invite you to share one of your social sites with me. I have made friends on Twitter and Facebook over the years and have had so many people encourage me along the way!
I would love it if you connect with me!
Facebook – I usually post one photo per day and it is typically about my latest creation
Twitter – I share links to things I am passionate about – sewing, my business, Cleveland, mental health, to name a few
Pinterest – I pin things that I love and also showcase my work. I have a lot of sewing boards!
Instagram – I don’t have a smart phone! I do have an Ipod, so I occasionally share a behind-the-scenes look into my studio or family life.
Bloglovin’ – I share a lot of my creations on my blog and occasionally share a bit about my personal life. I also love to create
sewing tutorials. Etsy – I have been on Etsy since 2009. You can check out my items and my feedback. I also have a
website that I am in the process of upgrading.

RSS Feed – If you want my blog posts emailed to you!
Newsletter – I send out a newsletter about six times a year that includes my latest tutorials, shop news, and new products.

I have so many tees that I have collected for the last 25 years. I never wear them but can’t bear to throw out the memories. A tee shirt quilt is the answer. Thank you for the chance to win.
