I know boasting is a sin, but if a sewing blog is not about blowing one’s own trumpet, then what is it about?! 🙂
A couple of posts back I wrote about this dress which I made to enter the Tessuti Gridlock Sewing Competition. You simply have to check out the Pinterest page which features all of the entries. There were some amazing, amazing entries.
The (very worthy, IMO), winner of the $1,000 AUD prize was Sandra’s coat. Cute, right? A fantastic frankenpattern, if ever there was one.
Anyway, the ever so generous Tessuti people have decided to also award five entrants with a $100 Tessuti voucher….and one of those entrants is me!! After seeing the standard of some of the other entries I really never expected to win anything, so I am absolutely thrilled.
Check out the details of Sandra’s coat and see the other 4 runners up from this link.
Until later….bye from a very happy me!

Hey Sam, don’t know if you will check this/ get this, but just tried to leave some comments on your blog and it wouldn’t let me…the security thing wouldn’t come up properly to let me type the words in…will try later on…just letting you know I stopped by to admire your handiwork!
Thanks for letting me know you had a problem. I’ve recieved other comments today, so not quite sure what happened (and I’m not very good with the technical side of blogging!) Thanks for stopping by anyway.
