Happy Saturday guys - so I have some bad news for me and some good news for you guys! I recently signed up to a complete a "Box of colour" swap on Craftster.
However, my partner seems to have disappeared from the face of the earth and as such the organiser of the swap has advised me not to send the package of stuff I made, as I'm unlikely to receive anything back. I've done a lot of swaps and this is the first time this has happened, and it kind of sucks.
Luckily, I can use some of the package for another swap I'm currently taking part in, but it does leave me with a few handmade items with no home to go to - so I figured why not have a giveaway.
My partners colour choice for the box of colour swap was black - so here's a few of the things I made which are now being given away right here on the blog.
First up is this apron - its the same pattern I used to make Jess' apron, the main fabric I received in a swap and the check fabric I picked up in the Arthur Toye closing down sale. It DOES need an iron, I had it all folded up for sending and it got a bit crinkled.
Here's a close up of the wee pocket - I'm getting pretty good at pockets!
I'm also going to include a whole bunch of buttons I made from fabric scraps I have - I bought a button making kit when I was in the USA last year. These are really fun to make.
So if you want to win these things, all you have to do is leave a comment below and tell me about your worst baking/cooking related disaster! The giveaway will be open for two weeks, I will announce the winner on Sunday 23 May and I'm happy to send anywhere in the world. Good luck guys!
