GIVEAWAY: Izzy Little Red Doll Soft Toy PDF Sewing Pattern

Meet the Little Sew & Sews Little Red Riding Hood doll - named Izzy after my friends' daughter, who wanted a Red Riding Hood cape for her Book Week costume :)  Not only am I making (and selling) the finished products, I have started writing up the pattern for other crafters to make this gorgeous doll!  The pieces have been sent off for testing and I hope to have the PDF Sewing pattern available for purchase towards the end of this week - keep an eye out on my Facebook page as I will post on there when it is finished and for sale.

GIVEAWAY TIME AGAIN!

If you would like to be the first lucky ducky to receive the completed Izzy Little Red Doll Soft Toy PDF Sewing pattern FREE, simply leave a comment below this blog post telling me the name of your favourite childhood storybook character - feel free to tell me why too!  You must also leave your full name and email address so that I can email the pattern through to the Giveaway winner.  Only one entry per person is permitted.  Comments will close on Wednesday 22 August, 2012 at 6pm Perth time.  GOOD LUCK!

GIVEAWAY TIME - The Superhero pattern is ALMOST here!

It is almost here! I am beyond excited to be releasing the first of my original design soft toy dolls as a PDF sewing pattern VERY SOON!  I am wary of giving an exact day and time that it will be ready, as every time in the past few weeks I have set myself a target date to have the photo tutorial completed, something goes awry (camera death, delays in receiving replacement, man & toddler flu just to name a few).   But ... it is almost finished, touch wood, AND after much deliberation the pattern will include both the boy and the girl versions (as opposed to doing two separate patterns).

GIVEAWAY TIME!

If you would like to be the first lucky ducky to receive the completed Superhero PDF Sewing pattern FREE, simply leave a comment below this blog post with what colour combination you will be using for your first Superhero.  You must also leave your full name and email address so that I can email the pattern through to the Giveaway winner.  Only one entry per person is permitted.  Comments will close on Wednesday 15 August, 2012 at 6pm Perth time.  GOOD LUCK!

Waiting ... waiting ... waiting!

For those that missed the update, I am very sad to announce the demise of my much beloved little Casio digital camera that I purchased over 9 years ago when pregnant with my first son. *sniff sniff*  - I am very excited though that somewhere in this world is my NEW Canon DSLR on it's way to me.  In the meantime, I must wait, and while I wait my pile of 'to be photographed' products is getting big enough to have a nice lean happening ( I think I need to start a new pile!).  

On the pile is all the beginnings of 3 different sewing patterns, 2 new original design softies, 1 new style of dress, 1 new addition to the Role Play series (including some delectable little extras from Perigren Creations to use as props) as well as a small fabric shop of materials for the upcoming Spring Blossom & Christmas collections.
If you don't hear from me in a week, it means my camera has arrived and I am tackling Mt Fabric!
