Giveaway!!!!! My new patterns








Hi peeps! Man, this has been my busiest holiday season ever, which is awesome, but exhausting. Don't worry I'll be posting more regularly soon. The No Coast Craft-o-Rama went great this weekend. It was super fun hanging out with my crafty friends. I still have to clean up everything still (and from Quilt Market too) but I'll get there.

Thanks to everyone who's stuck with the bloggy blog during my lack of posting. I'm going to do a little giveaway for all y'all! I'll be giving away my 4 new printed patterns to one lucky reader. All of you who guessed alligator here were right, my first sewing pattern is the little alligator in the first two pics. He comes with a fold out template and a booklet of easy to follow instructions. The other 3 patterns are my new puppy embroidery patterns, Boston, Golden and Maltese. Each puppy is sitting in a pretty border. The best part is that the patterns include an iron on transfer, woo hoo!

To enter the giveaway just leave a comment below. I'll pick a name randomly on Monday. Then you'll still get the patterns before Christmas! All the patterns are available as printed patterns and as pdf downloads in my etsy shop. Thanks all! -alyssa

I'm really happy on your behalf. How great that you are busy - eventhough it must be hard. :))

And, I just bought one of your fabulous dog patterns (it looks a lot like our dog Otto!) but I will try out my luck anyway. :))

Thanks so much for the chance to win such cute patterns! I would love to sew an alligator for my son. Although I'm not so good at embroidery, my younger sister loves it, and loves dogs. It would be a lovely gift to send to her!

Alyssa,
I love these patterns. Isaac would love the alligator.
Actually, he'd probably drool all over it then try to eat it :-).

I love these patterns! The Boston looks just like 2 of my grand-dogs. Abby and Rachel. I have signed up for your email.
My question too is, do you have a Chihuahua pattern? That is what I have a fat Chi! She is black with some white and weighs about 16-17 pounds. LOL Told ya she's fat!

Hi Alyssa! I just wanted to let you know I received the patterns in the mail yesterday. They are so great - thank you! My post office lady got a real giggle out of the alligator on the envelope and I had to explain there was a wonderful alligator pattern inside the envelope! lol I will send you a pic when I get him made. Thank you again!
