Crafty Gals - we have a Giveaway for you!



We are all about feeling pretty. If you are going to vacuum the floor, then your vacuum should be pretty.



I tried to explain this principle to the hubby recently when I was picking out a new broom. He looked for size and economy, I looked for the pretty color. Guess which broom came home with us?! When you are sewing, an old fashioned red, tomato pincushion will work just fine. It will patiently hold your pins for you, and the little strawberry will keep your needles sharp (yes, that is what it is for!), but this little pincushion Liz created is much prettier!

We are going to start doing giveaways on a fairly regular basis, 'cause that's the kind of girls we are, and we are starting with this sweet little pincushion.


All you have to do to enter is leave a comment on this post before midnight, Tuesday 9/2. We will pick a winner and post the winner Wednesday morning!

Until then, happy creating, you crafty gal!

Beautiful pin cushion! I would love to use this when (and if) I ever sew again!

Oh, and you're right about "pretty" (vacuums, brooms, hammers?)it make the "job" more enjoyable!

Oooh! I would love that for my new sewing room in my new house in California near my dear friend of a long time Missy... ;-) Can't wait to see you Missy....

Emily said...

I'll enter, it's darling! I don't even own a pincushion, isn't that sad. I just store my pins in a little box. I would feel like a real grown up lady if I had my own pincushion.

I have a red strawberry and I have a red tomato, both are from my grandmother's sewing box, thus old and Vintage...but they are certainly not SWEET OR FUNKY! I would love to win that precious pin cushion so that they can be a family in my sewing box and I can voo doo them all up together!
