Bag Giveaway

I have been making some bags from Nicole Mallalieu's book 'You Sew, Girl' and it has been fantastic!  Such great easy patterns and easy to understand instructions with lots of photo's of the steps.  I have enjoyed the bag making so much that I couldn't stop at just one!

I can't keep them all and so I am going to give one of them away.  I had a really hard time trying to choose which one to keep myself and had to get the eeny, meeny, miny, moe ritual to lend a hand.


Made from sturdy denim and cotton flap.  It has a key chain fob attached to lining.  Also a phone pocket and a zippered pocket.

A (not very good) view of lining, pockets and key fob.




If you would a chance to win this bag all you have to do is:

1) Leave a lovely comment!

To have more entries in this giveaway, you could also post about this giveaway on your blog. (feel free to use any of my photo's for the job:) This provides you with the added bonus of having an extra blog post for this week. (thumbs up to quick and easy posts!)

You could also become a follower for another entry!  I love lovely crafty friends!

Giveaway closes on the 4th of September, which incidentally is Fathers Day.  Maybe I should have made this bag out of manly fabrics! 

PS:  Open to all (on Earth!)

Good luck!

    Kylie, that bag is sooooo cute! I love it and of course would LOVE to win it! I will blog about it for you tomorrow. I was just gifted one of Nicole M.s bag patterns, but haven't made it yet. I have heard, though, that they are some of the very best bag patterns out there!

    Thanks so much for the chance! (And you know that I already follow you! :o)

    XOXO,

    Cyndi

    Nice little bag. Will have to check out the book to sew one too. I can imagine embroidering some decor on the flap.
