This is a GREAT prize. I've entered... I'm curious to see if we'll have any shared experiences with the couple! I'm actually blogging about our own first-home DIY, if anyone has any advice for us?

Awesome giveaway... I NEED THIS TO LIVE! For me, beginners patterns are medicinal because so far I haven't managed to get any of my projects 'just so'. *crosses fingers, toes, eyes*
I'm Moobug, and I'm struggling to type right now.
Wiksten pattern and fabric giveaway and quilting notions winner
I've often joked to my more sporty friends that summer is my indoor season here in sunny and humid North Carolina. It's hard for me to get motivated to even open the front door when temperatures are in the upper 90's and 100's as they have been lately. The garden gets super weedy for a couple ...
The 'Tea Time' designs are beautiful - they really caught my eye and I could think of umpteen One-Quart-Wonders I could start with them!
I'm Moobug on Spoonflower :)

That sounds like so much fun! I order the pot luck factory seconds from Clothkits for the very reason that I have no idea what I'm going to get, but will be able to make something awesome! I love the idea of it being random crafts too...

WhimseyBox giveaway and craft business book winner
To me, one of the unexpected benefits of Stephen having started Spoonflower is that he is now well-versed in all things crafty and sewing-related. If not actually a practicing member of the sewing obsessed tribe himself, he is fluent in the language and customs. This is mighty handy around gif...
Wow! I wish I had half of your energy, and that is an experience list to aspire to :D

We're giving away a copy of Weekend Sewing by Heather Ross!
With Christmas chaos behind us at Spoonflower, we're finally getting to catch our breath, slow down, and consider our own creative projects again. I love this time of year actually, when everything seems to come to a sudden halt compared to the previous week's frenetic pace. (But don't worry...

Holiday Giveaway Wrap-Up: Congrats to our final two winners
Thanks so much to everyone who participated in our 12 Days of Giveaways this year. It was a bit of a marathon putting it all together (thanks, Darci!), but I think it went really well. Reading through the enthusiastic comments left each day was a real treat. I just wish we had a prize for every...

I've got 6 fat quarters in my cart but I've only got the cost of one discounted... do I have to do all these separately and pay postage three times? :(

Wow - Sammyk seems like such an inspired young woman, and the snapshot I've seen of her prints is a thing of beautiful, chaotic awesome. I can't wait to see the two new collections. I have plans for my kids' bedrooms and I think her work will be part of it!!
I'm pretty new to Spoonflower and I always wondered about the background behind most of the artists. It's so refreshing to see an art production site that shows such a comfortable interest in their designers. I can see myself getting addicted to various artists or themes and trying to collect samples of every design... curse you all!
Thanks, Spoonflower. Wish me luck on my decoupage rampage...
