I love hand and machine embroidery. This is a great giveaway and a way to find more things that I love to do!! Thank you sew much, Jan
Way back in the day, 1940’s most little girls learned embroidery. I’m glad to see this useful skill make a modern comeback.
Completed bonus by following you on FB and already followed Indigo Junction on FB. Tweeted: https://twitter.com/deedeethatsmee/status/423882555612332032 and thanks again!
I just love the denim pack colors and have them in my wardrobe since they are my faves. Would love to win this book so fingers crossed! Thanks.
I haven’t been this excited about a newly released book in the last couple of years. There are so many inspiring projects in Stitched Style that I have no idea which one I want to do first!
