U.S.A., New Tattoo and Giveaway!!

Soooooo, we have a WINNER!!!

Congrats to #15 GCCMOM!!!! Yea!!!! Please send me a pic of the finished purse, I would love to see what fabrics you will use!!

Now, onto the surprise gift!
Yes there is a second drawing for my most favorite notion ever!! The The Seam-Fix Seam Ripper . 


I absolutely love this tool, you will never have to use tweezers to seam rip again! The rubber ends were made to rub out the little pieces of thread.... why didn't I think of that?
The Lucky second winner is......

 Giddy99!!! Yea!!

Congrats to you both and thank you all for joining in, I appreciate all the comments!!!  

 GCCMOM and Giddy I will contact you through email!



  Sooooo, I am ashamed that I have not been by in a while, but its been a mad house up in here! Lots going on with life and work. All good things though.
First off I got to make an awesome auction quilt for a good friend, and I loved every minute of making this one. It involves two of my favorite things, the U.S.A. and batik fabrics......

 Unfortunatly, I did not get a chance to take a final picture, but it was beautiful if I must say so myself ;)

Next on the blog agenda is........
My New Tattoo!!!
I wanted to have a wrist tattoo of something I absolutely love, quilting!!! 
So I choose this Sawtooth Star pattern, just love it. The quilt square may look a little familiar, It is from In Color Orders BOM. This star embodies modern and traditional all in one. That makes me very happy.

Well, lastly, the GIVEAWAY!!! For some reasons I look at a purse pattern and go completely stupid. I have a hard time grasping the whole purse making thing. But I do know you guys out there are totally awesome at making them. So, I am giving away an adorable purse pattern!!!
Yea!! The pattern is from Bella Nonna! The pattern is Pattern No. 159, the Boutique Shoulder Bag...... Super Cute!!
There is also a surprise gift with that Giveaway!!!! 

All you have to do is leave me a comment. Winner will be chosen randomly by Random.Org on Thursday September 13th by 9pm.
Good Luck and thank you for stopping by!!!

    Hey cool tatoo!!! And that looks like a great bag :) I've only made a few hangbags so far and sometimes the directions stump me but I walk away and go back to it after a little break.

    I've been thinking of a tattoo for ages and just love, love, love that you got something that is so very dear to your heart and essentially you :)

    I just got me baby (Elna beaut from the 70's) back from the sewing machine doctor and would love to give this bag pattern a whirl.

    Thank you for a great giveaway and the chance to win it.

    Love your tat, wrist must be a tender spot to have it done in. I have one that goes across my spine. Painful but well worth it.
    Thank you for the chance to win this give away. I'm sure that the teenage girls down here would love a bag like that.
