$50! I would love to get some new clothing patterns to make my kids’ clothes for the upcoming school year. This would go a long way toward getting me there. Thanks so much for a chance! kristie_keely(at)yahoo(dot)com
Hello! I -NEED- that book, Handmade Home.
Awesome May Giveaway, thanks Jessika + Amy for your generosity!
Oh my word, I just wouldn’t know where to start! The shop is just filled with patterns and books that are on my to buy list. Definitely the bird and little bird fox and rabbit patterns though, I want to sew those up for my little boy’s room! After that it would be a toss up between, last minute fabric gifts, last minute patchwork gifts, sewing for boys and carefree clothes for girls! So you can see that this giveaway would really help make a dent in my never ending list of stuff to buy 🙂

What a great site, Amy! I’m loving the Doodle Stitching: The Motif Collection book – I’m plaing with the idea of merging fabric into my stationery designs… but, then again your Coastal Knits patterns are also scrumptious!
Thanks so much for your generosity!
I also tweeted this giveaway 😉
Curtains for the living room with some sweet and simple embroidery or stamping or something to make them OURS!

Wow this is awesome. Magpie Patterns have so many things that I want. I think I’d have to incorporate some gorgeous embroidery designs on clothing and a quilt.

Thanks for the great giveaway! I would love to sew up some cute crochet hook holders.
Awesome giveaway! I, like many other knitters, am completely smitten with the Beekeepers Quilt – those little hexipuffs are adorable!
Oh how fabulous, I just found magpie patterns the other day and loved every little thing! I would love to start stitching some Oliver & S cuties for my little baby coming this September. Thanks!
And this was too good a giveaway for me to not tweet it 😉 @michael_anns

We are decorating our childrens rooms and I’ve been wanting to make some embroidered pillows for my daughter, but I think I need to do the robot pattern for my boys. (might have to grab the wee wonderfuls book too)
I’d love to make some patchwork pillows for our couch. Also I’m super obsessed with embroidery, I haven’t settled on anything yet, but I want to embroider something big. in the meantime I embroider little things to hang in my kids rooms. Also for my three kids I really want to make each a lap quilt, but I’ve never quilted before. The list get larger every day!
The Little Monsters quilt is sweet! and I love the Good karma quilt for yoga.
Oh, what a treat! I keep on seeing lots of beautiful embroideries framed in hoops at the moment, and I would love to do some of my own. I would make lots of them and then assemble on the wall above my bed. So that’s what I would buy, I think!
What a great giveaway!
What?! Wow! I’d be so thrilled to win – have been loving and wishing to have some Magpie patterns for a while now : )
Love that she carries Jane Richmond’s knitting patterns. So hard to choose!
Definitely a book…the Doodle Stitching and Handmade Felt caught my eye this morning. Thanks for a great giveaway!
Just posted the giveaway on FB.
There are so many wonderful patterns, where do I begin. . . When I can take abreak from sewing our aprons, I want to knit:Decouverte, Dentelle Scarf Erik ( love that asymmetrical zipper) So many gems from these wonderful designers! Thanks for a great giveaway.
These patterns are absolutely fabulous! 🙂 How I would LOVE to win! Thanks for the chance! 🙂
i’m trying to psych myself up to make my first quilt, so i’d go straight to the ‘fresh quilting’ and ‘quilting: line and color’ books. beautiful!
I would definitely get the pattern for the Beekeeper’s Quilt and some of Penguin and Fish’s Animal Alphabet.
I would love a few patterns (olver+s) to make something cute for my little girl. And perhaps one of the quilting books!

Absolutely the Good Karma quilt!

definitely oliver + s patterns (like the family reunion dress), to make some sweet clothes for my little niece…..
The forty winks fox embroidery is just too darling and would be so fun to put up in the kiddos room. And I don’t quilt, but I’d be willing to learn so I could make that In Spring quilt. It’s so cheery, and will all the grey we have here is would be a perfect counterpoint!
Loving this animal quilt top – so so so cute!!! I would make it for my kids. Well, I would probably have to make two. One for each. It is so so so cute!!! Lovve it!
Thanks for the chance to win!

I have been sewing for a while, bu I am not a quilter, so two things on my list are 2 quilt tops, one entirely of hexy’s and the other of all yoyo’s! plus I love Magpie embroidery patterns!
i spent nearly an hour perusing their website–such a fantastic collection of patterns that they’ve curated. I love the Sunki pattern and am torn between the Little Things to Sew and the Growing Up Sew Liberated. THANK YOU to both of you!
