Yes it's that time again, the SewMamaSew giveaway day! Not only can you be in to win great prizes but it is a great way to find new and inspiring blogs. If you are a new visitor here, welcome!
For my giveaway this time around I have a pretty little charm pack of "Ruby" , the latest fabric collection by Bonnie and Camille for Moda. This collection is oh so gorgeous and I really need to get some myself now that I have seen it in person to touch and see the lovely colour palette they have used.
Along with the handmade gift making that is going on in my sewing attic lately I have whipped up a sweet little birdie pincushion and a matching needlebook. The Birdie pincushion was made using this free tutorial here and is really so easy and satisfying to make. I think I will be making more of these in the near future. The needle book cover is made up of tiny little 1" squares of shabby chic fabrics with some coordinating wool felt pages inside taken from my precious stash of Heather Bailey felts.
In order to be in to win this wee collection of pretty sewing supplies just leave me a comment sharing one or more of your handmade gifts for this holiday season or perhaps a link to your favourite tutorial.
This giveaway will be left open till 16th December when a winner will be drawn randomly.
Overseas comments are most welcome and also please make sure I can contact you via email :-)

Well I don't have a blog post for any of the handmade presents I'm giving out yet, because I don't want anyone to figure out the surprise just yet. But I'll tell you that I'm busy making patchwork place mats, tea towels and oven mitts for a few people on my list. :)
