Hello sew-alongers!
Fall for Cotton has been a great experience for so many of us. Rochelle and I have been happy to help, wrangle, and hopefully inspire you along the way! It’s been an honor and pleasure being one of your co-hosts for this great sew-along challenge, and I couldn’t have had a better co-host than Rochelle! ♥
Ready for prizes?? Today’s our special giveaway day for Fall for Cotton participants. If you submitted at least one photo of your final garment to our Flickr group by the deadline last night, you’re eligible to win one of four prizes! That’s right, four chances to win. You can win one of two prizes in my giveaway here today, or one of two at Lucky Lucille today!
By Gum, By Golly Prize No. 1
The first prize here is one gorgeous wristlet bag created by the wonderfully talented Vicki (AKA Mama Golly) over at That Clever Clementine! It measures 10.75″ wide by 8.25″ tall and is 2″ deep.
If you’ve followed my blog for awhile you might find that some of that fabric looks suspiciously familar. Well that’s because I worked in cahoots with her, and some of the fabric featured in this wristlet is vintage fabric scraps from my own past projects. Isn’t it a wonderful little bag?? Her shop is full of fun fabric bags and bowls that are great for small projects. This wristlet was made exclusively for Fall for Cotton, but look for a variety of wristlets coming soon!
By Gum, By Golly Prize No. 2
Prize two is a sewing prize pack! You’ll get 2.5 yards of a gorgeous cotton print, .5 yard of a matching peach piqué, a blouse pattern from 1957 and some vintage notions. The pattern envelope and instructions aren’t in the best condition, but it’s a great pattern–in fact one of the first vintage blouse patterns I ever used!
Now, how can you win one of these prizes, or one of the prizes at Lucky Lucille??
Rules to enter
- You must have finished your Fall for Cotton project with final photos submitted to the Flickr group by the deadline (which was last night).
- In your comment, please include your Flickr username, first name and email address.
- You’re allowed one entry on this post and one entry on the Lucky Lucille giveaway post. There are 4 total prizes, and we will draw 4 winners at random. (Meaning you can’t win 2 prizes, sorry, we’re spreading around the love!)
Giveaways on both Lucky Lucille and By Gum, By Golly will close Saturday, October 5th at midnight.
Thanks so much for participating, we sure hope you had a blast! ♥

Jenny Johansson says
Hello, I like that the give away is open world wide. 🙂
My name is Jenny, my mail is jenny.johansson (a) gmail.com and I’m a bit at a loss about the flickr user name since I log in by my gmail… but on my page on flickr it says “Jenny Johansson” followed by “JennyJohansson”, so hopefully it’s one of those.
Thanks for giving me a reason to sew something special!
Nicola says
Hi, It was so much fun taking part in this. It was my first sewing challenge/sew along doo dah. Also gave me an excuse to use a different pattern, and to get one of my “can’t do”s out the way (the lapped zipper)
Very very happy with my new skirt. Now going to make it in some wool that I have in my stash.
