Sew, Mama, Sew! Giveaway Day

I know nothing I give away this time will be as popular as my Lowly Worm doll from the last Sew, Mama,Sew! Giveaway… but I have so many Christmas presents left to make that there’s no way I have time to make another Lowly. I’ve already spent too much time fretting about what to give away, so I finally decided to post two options. The winner can pick which item he/she would like, the other will be for a Yankee Swap at a family party next weekend!

First up is a denim tote bag with leather handles based onΒ this tutorial atΒ Between the Lines. The photo shows two bags I made last summer. The actual bag I’m giving away is probably the size of the bag on the right, Β about 12″ wide and 15″ tall. Β It was too dark here today take a decent picture, so I figured the older picture was better.


Next is a pair of felt gingerbread guys from “Fa La La La Felt.” You may recall that I posted about them before. I think they are cute, but my husband thinks they are a bit creepy looking. So I’m happy to send them to a home where they will be better appreciated!

In the spirit of the holidays, no need to jump through hoops for a chance to win. Just leave me a comment! If you feel like it, tell me about the best handmade gift you’re giving this year.

Comments will close Friday night and I’ll announce the winner Saturday morning. I will ship internationally.

  • Oh, yes. That is when I started reading your blog – last Sew Mama Sew day when I saw that lovely Lowly.

    The best hand made gift I’m giving this year is zipper pouches…. mostly because I finally decided to try sewing a zipper and found out how simple it is! What was I afraid of?

    Love your giveaway. Thanks for the chance to win.

  • These bags are gorgeous, and your barely creepy little felt ornaments are stinkin’ adorable.

    This year I’ve made seven seahorses. I love them for toddler toys. πŸ˜€

    Thanks for the chance to win!

  • Diannne

    My best gift is one of those toteable houses with some peg people for my granddaughter.P.S. I would love one of your denim bags. Thanks for the giveaway.

  • Oh, what fun! My best handmade gift this year is a tie between these cute Advent gum packs and a homemade Justin Bieber notebook. (I love the notebook for its creativity, not the Bieber!)

    I think it’s funny that your husband says the gingerbread guys are creepy. Isn’t he the one that said your cute cute CUTE ruffly shirt looked matronly? He sure is funny.

    And I read the comment by Grace and thought to myself: “But zippers ARE hard, right?” I’m still too chicken to try them, but encouraged by Grace.

  • Lisa

    What fun prizes! Thanks for the chance to win πŸ™‚

  • I’ve been reading you since the Lowly-give away πŸ™‚
    I didn’t win a Lowly, hopefully I will win a denim bag.

    This year I crochet based-on-grannysquares market bags to all female in the family.

    (Last year there was a crocheted Lowly for my son http://lh3.ggpht.com/_TawZpbj5D9Q/S0id1wxTcYI/AAAAAAAADVs/vmL-yDcJkPM/s640/P1020181_resize.jpg (it’s my daughter in the pic))

  • I like the character of the slightly creepy gingerbread men!

    I don’t have the time or energy for handmade this Christmas (9 week old baby in the house + a toddler). The best present I made this year was Star Wars pot holders as a housewarming gift for my brother.

  • rebecca

    I’d love a bag like that! My best handmade gift so far has been a pink kangaroo from a My Little Mochi pattern- too cute!

  • lovely bags, i’m so in favor for handmade christmas, otherwise i’m just not giving material gifts

  • I absolutely love the denim bag!

  • Gem

    I heart that bag. Simple and gorgeous!!
    Still making handmade goodies for xmas – brooches and maybe a few cushions

  • ~Heather

    Great giveaway! This year is the first year I’ve made gifts myself. I think the ones I like the best are the album I’m making for my dad that will have a lot of sentimental value and the stuffed monster doll I am making for my son.

  • I love the jeans-bag! I plan to make a cute little dress for my brothers firstborn for christmas.

  • My husband also disagrees with me on what crafts are “cute.” πŸ™‚ Shows what he knows….

  • dana

  • Karen

    My best is a t shirt quilt I am working on for my husband. Happy Holidays!

  • Lora W.

    Thank you so much for the giveaway. I love the bag and those CUTE gingerbread men can have a new home at my house. I’m not making anything this year, as we are renovating the bathroom. What a nightmare.

  • Persia

    I saw those bags before and really liked the simple design of them!
    Also your blog is really nice looking I’m gonna look around some more πŸ™‚

  • I am loving the leather handles on the bags – I had never thought of doing that. And I think the gingerbread men are cute, not scary too lol! I see you are in NH, is that right? I’m in NH too, in Nashua – where are you?!

    Thanks

  • Leigh Anne

    My best gift will prob be a ruffled apron πŸ™‚

  • Brenda

    I clicked back on Lowly Worm; don’t know how I missed that last year. I had the pleasure of introducing my old busy town books to my little grandsons this year. They are loving them! I like the denim bags as I am a saver of jean leg backs for projects such as these. I am creating a “studio” space (a whole room!) this year so homemade is going to be maple syrup and grape jam (both from our property) and soap (deer and sheep fat) probably. Hope my studio happens so I can get back to sewing!

  • My fav homemade gift I’m giving away this year is a scarf I made for my brother. Your giveaways are lovely, I’d love to win that bag! πŸ™‚

    thanks for the opportunity to win!

  • Marilyn W

    A friend and I get together once a month (more often if we can) and quilt pot holders or placemats or fabric bowls (that’s the last 3 years) for our neighborhood bunco group. We average 12 – 20 gifts and it isn’t so hard (monotonous) if they are spread throughout the year.

    This year we made placemats using strips of Christmas fabrics (most of which we had on hand) using the stitch and flip quilt as you go method.

    At least 2 of the ladies teared up when we passed them around at our Christmas bunco party.

    That makes all the hassle and bother COMPLETELY worth it…to know that they appreciate what we do.

    Would love to win your giveaway.

    Thanks

  • My best present has to be a stuffed frog cushion for one of my favorite little boys.

  • hmmm, I’ve made several, but I think the 2 tree skirts I made for my brother and sister’s family’s are pretty darned fabulous. Thanks for your give away – please come and enter mine if you haven’t already!

  • My second son has asked for very random things this year and one of them is Christmas pajamas so that is what I am making and I know he will love them!

  • Emily

    Very simple but stunning!

  • Heidi

    I love fabric market totes. The leather handles are a great touch.
    This year everything I am giving is handmade. My favorite is a vintage style tablecloth that I am hand embroidering for my mother. The designs are kitchy birdies with spoons, teacups, bowls, etc.

    hugs from snowy Ontario, Canada

    I’m making gallon of milk sized reusable grocery totes with matching foldable grocery sacks for all of my families this year. In colors to suit their personalities, of course!

  • Aw, the creepy little felt dolls are awesome! I don’t actually think they’re creepy at all. πŸ™‚

    I think the best handmade gift I’m making this year is a quilt for my almost-three year old. I’m new to quilting and totally overwhelmed, but he’s seen the top and didn’t want to give it back so that I can finish the quilt. πŸ™‚ Or perhaps my little sister’s hair pillow. She was diagnosed with a very aggressive breast cancer earlier this year and she let me save some of her (amazing, super soft, auburn) hair to use as stuffing.

    Thank you for the giveaway!

  • Who doesn’t love a roomy, groovy bag? I love bags that let me get a lot of use out of them. These are fab. And I love the little gingerbread art dolls. Handmade dolls make me smile. I have a very small collection that I adore. Never too old for doll babies! Thank you for such a fun gifting on the giveaway. Tina

  • Oh, as I am giving almost only handmade gifts this year I hope that they all will turn out great! πŸ™‚
    I will post about all of them on my blog once I finish them … SIGH Some of them are beanbags with removeable covers, a stickhorse, a hooded scarf, a Christmastree cushion, an owl mobile …. I always keep forgetting some …

    Great giveaway!
    Merry Christmas!
    Tanks.

  • Creepy? I think those little “gingerbread guys” are so adorable. I love making handmade gifts especially for Christmas. It is fun to think up ideas for each person on the list. Sometimes, however, I make lots of the same things to share. Last year I bought handmade soaps on Etsy. Then crocheted scrubbies myself for every on my list…lots of oohs and aahs.

    Thanks for the giveaway and the chance to win.

  • Laura

    The bags are my favorite!

  • Oh my, the denim tote is so simple but chic! And the gingerbread guys are pretty awesome themselves. Thanks for the lovely giveaway and have a happy handmade Christmas!

  • crazyestonian

    I am not sure what the best made present will be this year. Maybe the stranded mittens for my dad? Maybe the candles we decorated with my daughter? Last year the hat for my husband won the best title, he wears it constantly even though it is not the first hat I’ve made him.

    It is funny, I loved those gingerbread men but my husband thought them creepy as well πŸ™‚

  • adriane

    Thank you for the simple giveaway! I really adore the bag and love (the slightly creepy) dolls! πŸ˜‰

    Lovely bag I’d love to win it…well my dad goes to work early in the morning and the winters are specially tough on him so I made him a tea wallet with lots of pockets to keep his favourite coffee and tea bags, stirrer etc and I also found a lil cup that collapses flat and a matching flask for hot water and I sent it by post…he was so thrilled and I was so so happy πŸ™‚
