It's the day we've all been waiting for! Sew, Mama, Sew! is hosting Giveaway Day!
I've got two chances to win today, one for a finished Buttercup Bag (adapted from the design by Rae Hoekstra) in a creamy white linen/rayon blend with a simple sage green cotton print lining and band.
Then! Another reader will get a kit to follow my tutorial and make a complete cubed drawstring pouch. 5 charm squares (Michael Miller and... I forgot. Cute, though), a linen/rayon blend for the lining, 16" of trim for the casings, 44" of ribbon for ties, and a scrap of decor bond to sturdy up the bottom. You're totally covered, just add sewing machine and thread.
