Giveaway: Sew + Making

As promised, another giveaway! Not a craft book this time, but two crafty magazines instead :)

I'm having a big clearout at the moment as I don't have room to keep all my crafty stuff... and I'd much rather these magazines went to a loving crafty home than got recycled!


One lucky commenter will win both magazines: the launch issue of trendy UK crafts magazine "Making" (published Nov/Dec) and the December issue of Sew Magazine (issue #17) which is jam packed with sewing projects, including a dress pattern.


As always, I'm happy to ship internationally, so anyone can enter. Just leave a comment on this blog post for a chance to win! (If you're reading this on my Facebook page please click through to my blog to leave your comment on the original post).

Leave your comment before 10pm on Friday 29th April and
I'll pick a winner at random on Saturday 30th.

Please make sure you leave a name or pseudonym (no anonymous comments please!) and leave a link or email address so I can contact you, or make sure to come back to see if you got picked.

*** This giveaway is now closed ***

I would also love these magazines :) I can buy at least one of them here in germany... but way too expensive... nearly three times as much as if I would count the mail and the original cost together... so I mostly walk away from them *sniff*

Amy Gunn said...

Hi! I would love these magazines, I've just finished my first ever piece of clothing (http://magentamachine.blogspot.com/2011/04/my-first-ever-piece-of-clothing-from.html) and I'm keen to keep going (with a little guidance from a pattern). The dresses look ideal for my body shape too.
Here's hoping :)

Jopsy said...

I LOVE magazines! Just need more time to MAKE! Work really does get in the way ;)

Anonymous said...

Oh, that dress on the cover of Making looks amazing!

I only just discovered your blog (a friend posted something of yours on fb), and I have a drought of english language crafty sewing mags and books.
So it's great to have the chance to win some.
thanks!
