This is the first giveaway I’ve done. Initially I thought it was something I’d stay away from doing but I decided to do it as a huge thank you to all my followers. I started this blog just to keep busy in a small town this past July and yesterday I broke over 14,000 page views this past month, including a record of just under 1,000 in one day!…which is still small beans compared to the major craft bloggers but it’s crazy to me! The blog is growing by leaps and bounds each month and I want to celebrate by giving away two things: (1) a handmade tote and (2) a 1-year subscription to the new HGTV Magazine.
Here are some pics of the tote I made just for this giveaway. It’s 100% Organic Cotton and was made using fabrics from the Nancy Mims for Robert Kaufman Organic Pick-a-Bunch Line (from Fabric Envy). It’s fully interfaced with fleece, has two pockets, a magnetic snap closure, and lots of room.
Let’s get to the good part.
HOW TO ENTER:
*Since this giveaway is a thank you to my followers, you must be a follower of the blog to win. See the little box on the right under followers (Google Friend Connect)? Just click follow to be eligible to win.*
Then to enter, simply leave a comment below telling me you are a follower.
And for up to 5 extra entries (Make sure to leave a separate comment for each item you do to receive credit for it!):

- Follow me on Pinterest
- Follow me on Twitter
- Sign up for emails via the box in the right hand column. (You’ll only get an email when I post something).
Winner will be announced on the blog and Facebook page as well as contacted directly via email. If your email is not public via your Google Friend Connect account, make sure you leave it in your comments below so I can contact you if you’re the winner!
*Giveaway will last approximately 10 days and will end Sunday, January 29 at 9pm EST. Winner will be chosen using random.org on Monday, January 30. Sorry, but at this time, the giveaway is open to U.S. residents only. A new winner will be drawn after 48 hours should the original winner fail to claim their prizes. The tote was made using this IThinkSew pattern. Approximate giveaway value is $65.*
**This giveaway is not sponsored. It’s coming out of my own “fun money” simply to celebrate and say THANKS for the support!!**
