Welcome everyone--friends and new visitors alike to my homemaking blog, Comin’ Home! I’m so glad you dropped by today. I’m joining Sew Mama Sew for the annual give away extravaganza!
I’m giving away some fun sewing supplies….everything you see at the top here. :o) It’s already packed and ready to ship. :o) Read all about it….
Comin’ Home is not a ‘sewing’ blog per se..but I am an avid seamstress and quilter! I try to post a good sewing tutorial or show and tell every week. My archives are chock full of tutorials like
In fact, I recently posted how to make a dishtowel tote bag and I have three or four tutorials coming up in the next month or so..how to cover patio furniture, make throw pillows for the couch….
make fabric wall art and how to do a sew or no sew cover for office baskets. :o) I’ve been doing a LOT of sewing this month. (Sew much fun!! Pun intended.LoL!)
I’d like to invite you to enter my giveaway which is part of a huge sewing/crafty/homemade items giveaway put on by Sew Mama Sew. Several hundred bloggers and crafters will be listing their giveaways at Sew Mama Sew’s website.
The prizes will be in three categories and you can choose which blogs you want to visit based on what they offer:
- Hand crafted Items
- Crafty Supplies and Materials
- Sewing Supplies and Materials
I’m giving away a yard and a half of darling fabric..very lightweight and sparkly…just perfect for the spring! I was wanting some new and stylish spring fabric for a nice Sunday skirt. So I splurged a little. :o) I bought two pieces of fabric. One piece of fabric got used for the skirt below.
I was planning to make another tiered skirt for myself with the second piece of fabric..and then my good friend Trudy of Sewing With Trudy reminded me about the contest. So instead, I’m passing on this gorgeous fabric…to you!
But that’s not all…I’m also including some extra notions I had on hand..just to add to the fun. There’s a 14 inch zipper, ribbon, buttons, new needles and thread..and other goodies to use as you like. :o)
If you like to sew..or you like handmade things, be sure to join us this week. If you are a regular reader and would like to enter my contest..just leave a note. You don’t have to be a regular visitor of Sew Mama Sew to enter.
But be sure to drop by Sew Mama Sew for a list of all the great bloggers and ETSY shop owners who are hosting giveaways if you can. You can enter as many giveaways as you like! :o)
Remember…the contest STARTS on Monday May 23 and ENDS on May 25th!
You've got three days..so have fun!
PS. I do apologize to my subscribers who are getting this twice. I needed to re-post it for Monday. :o)

Lovely giveaway :D
Thanks for the chance!
How fun Donna! Love the picture of you and your granddaughter!
Don't know if you will not accept early entries, but I got the email post and decided to hop over.
That is lovely fabric and I love your new summery skirt!
I think that's fine to go ahead and enter. I don't remember reading anything about it.
I just posted early because I will be busy all weekend. :o)
What wonderful info about the Sweeteners!! Thanks so much for the post. Great Give-a-way also! hugs, Kerrie
Loved that photo with you and your grandaughter! Sounds like great fun, I unfortunately am not so handy. I received a birdhouse from the Habitat for Humanity that I was to assemble, paint and send back to them al for a good cause for a contest, instead of using the glue gun they sent me I started nailing it together and ended up splitting the front panel right in the front. Not sure how to incorporate it into a design feature when I a paint it now :)
Have a great weekend Donna!

Thanks for the comments on E & and her dress. I had so much fun making it and I surprised myself that I could do it! That fabric is Tutti Frutti and it is on sale at Joann's for 50% off right now $2.50yd and then with your teacher's 15% off that, I am thinking you could make Lena a precious dress too!! They have many styles and colors. I am off to get more this week.
