Sew Mama Sew Giveaway Day!

Hi all,

Welcome to my blog if you are new! Feel free to have a look around!

I thought I would giveaway some of my favourite fabric….that I haven’t been game to cut into yet! I just can’t decide what to make, placemats or potholders???

SMS Giveaway 2

There is a mix of fabric here – Riley Blake Chevrons and the Michael Miller kitchen print. But they match perfectly!

SMS Giveaway 1

The kitchen print is so retro – I love it!

SMS Giveaway

In the bundle is 1 metre of the kitchen print and a fat quarter of each of the chevrons – green, navy, orange and yellow. These measurements are Australian so that is a bit bigger than a yard and the fat quarters are a bit bigger than the American!

To enter I would like to know what you would make for your kitchen with these fabrics?

And my followers, either here or on Facebook can leave a second comment letting me know how they follow me!

I will post worldwide and I will draw the winner a week from today!

GiveawayDayMay6

For more great giveaways head over to the giveaway pages on the Sew Mama Sew blog, there are loads there so you might need a cuppa and a couple of hours!

Probably pot holders. Or use them as a feature on plain white tea towels.

hi Jess, what a generous giveaway, that's so awesome of you. I had good intentions of doing a giveaway but was caught by unorganised-surprise! I'll pop across and see if it's too late to get something organised and join in.

I would get fussy-cutting with those gorgeous retro mugs and kitchen goodies and make a set of placemats and matching coasters - I'd use the chevrons and mix them in with something like a linen-blend here and there - maybe a log-cabiny design.

hope you get lots of new traffic popping by to see your fab creations. x

Katrin said...

These would make fabulous aprons for my SIL and my little niece. Thanks!
