My own sweat, blood and tears...okay, I'm going a little to far saying that, but I think you get it :) Also, I LOVE LOVE LOVE my readers. You guys are the best! Seriously, so sweet and talented. I want to make you something to tell you all that.
So with out any further ado...
I will make a custom made piece of clothing for the winner!
You can pick ALMOST anything that I have sewn in the past or send me something you want me to refashion for you...you decide! Keep in mind that the fabric may be different, but you can choose what kind of fabric you like.

ReplyDeleteI love the box skirt and the circle skirt, but everything is so cute!
ReplyDeleteI would love to have that box-pleated skirt because I have been looking for that kind of a skirt but haven`t found it yet and my sewing skills aren`t good enought for me to do it myself. It`s nice that you desided to do this giveaway again. :)
ReplyDeleteI love everything you make and have spent countless hours drooling over your work. I would pick the box pleated skirt or maybe the pencil skirt.
ReplyDeleteI would definitely go with one of the skirts! They're all so cute!
