sew, mama, sew giveaway day!
May 16, 2010 | 326 Comments
Congratulations to Vicki for winning the Sew, Mama, Sew giveaway tote bag!
. . . . . . . . . .
I’m participating in Sew, Mama, Sew’s giveaway day again. I just love this idea. You can enter my giveaway below and then head over to their website and enter hundreds more! (Yes, hundreds!)
I’m giving away a tote bag. It’s a little smaller than some of my recent bags — the perfect size for knit and crochet, small sewing, and embroidery projects. It would also make a cute purse!
It’s got two big pockets inside and closes with a ribbon tie. The outside and pockets are from a really cute upholstery fabric sample.
How to enter: Leave a comment and tell me how you would use this bag — to hold creative projects? as a purse? something else?
Bonus entry: Subscribe to my rss feed and leave another comment to be entered.
Another bonus entry: “Like” my Facebook page and leave another comment to be entered. (Why did they change that? It sounds even weirder than “Fan.”)
I’ll ship internationally, so everyone has a chance to win! You have until Midnight CT, May 20th to enter. I’ll pick the winner using a random number generator. Good luck!
Now go check out more giveaways over at Sew, Mama, Sew!
recycle: All of the materials for this tote were thrifted (i.e., saved from the landfill).

That bag looks perfect for the small amount of knitting I have sitting in a box beside my bed side… I might actually complete it if it were in a bag like that!!

Loving your bag. Very ace indeed. I think I would use the bag to store creative projects I want to take with me when I’m on the go. It is such a sweet bag. LOVELY.
May 16th, 2010 @ 6:38 pm
I wish I knew how to knit! Since I don’t, I’d be using this cute bag to carry snacks and an extra diaper around : )

Cute, as usual, Julie! I am in dire need of a little bag to seperate my knitting. Those harmony needles are being treated like the (expensive) babies they are!

love your work, Julie, already a fan and follow your aweseom blog. I would use the bag when I go out on my own
(ie without the kiddies, so no need for a truck load of STUFF)
May 16th, 2010 @ 10:57 pm
I really like the print on this bag and would maybe use it as a purse or a small library bag.
May 17th, 2010 @ 2:31 am
It is a beautiful bag. I would use it to carry my crochet project to do on the train … or in the park … or at a cafe …

I just subscribed to you blog – I am looking forward to exploring it – looks lovely!
May 17th, 2010 @ 3:23 am
I’d like the lovely tote bag to carry my knitting things in.- The socks will be ready in time, just before the feet are grown a lot.

May 17th, 2010 @ 4:34 am
That tote would probably hold a knitting project or balls of yarn.
May 17th, 2010 @ 5:00 am
Too cute! I’d have to use it as a purse, for sure.
May 17th, 2010 @ 6:52 am
I love the fabric you have used in this tote… I can see my stockings in here. I would get uspet if I fot it dirty, so it would be hanging in my wardrobe, taking care of the delicate things
May 17th, 2010 @ 7:01 am
I’d use this bag to carry my knitting projects with me. I love it!
May 17th, 2010 @ 7:13 am
I love the bag! I would use it to keep my music together by the piano, or to haul library books back and forth!
May 17th, 2010 @ 7:22 am
What a wonderful tote. I’d use it to help carry my little projects to our Brown Owl meetings. It’s so cute!
May 17th, 2010 @ 7:26 am
I’d use it as my purse – one that doesn’t do double duty as the diaper bag…wouldn’t that be nice.
May 17th, 2010 @ 7:29 am
I would use this to carry a few things to the gym like my water bottle, headphones, etc. But it’s definately too nice to put sweaty clothes in!
Crossing my fingers.
May 17th, 2010 @ 7:32 am
Lovely! My mother in-law has very kindly agreed to teach me to knit, so I’m imagining this as a storage place for my soon-to-be-acquired knitting supplies!
May 17th, 2010 @ 7:37 am
I love it! I’d use it in anyway I can. Going out, carrying small quilting projects to quilter gatherings, getting books from the library. A bag like that should be shown! Thanks for the giveaway.

May 17th, 2010 @ 7:42 am
love this! would give as a gift to my mother!
May 17th, 2010 @ 7:50 am
I’ve said it before and I’ll say it again, cute cute! I don’t think this is large enough to hold my stash, but it may hold enough yarn for my beginer’s project. I crochet but have recently decided to take up knitting. You can never have too many hobbies. (lol) Especially ones that involve yarn.

Julie,
I love your tote bags. I would use it to keep my to-go stuff in. I keep a bag with items to-go with me when I leave the house: knitting, bank deposit, book, family schedule, etc. Right now I am using boring tote. This is just so pretty–I would love to pamper myself and use this pretty mama-sewn bag!!
May 17th, 2010 @ 10:43 am

May 17th, 2010 @ 1:54 pm
This is a lovely tote that I would so happily use to tote my embroidery supplies this summer on our family trips. Thanks for posting!
May 17th, 2010 @ 1:55 pm
It looks the right shape for a little stack of books, perhaps sewing books to hang over the bedpost and ready in bed
May 17th, 2010 @ 2:01 pm
That is so beautiful! I love it!
Also giving away over on my blog.
May 17th, 2010 @ 2:17 pm

May 17th, 2010 @ 3:15 pm
Very pretty, I like to take a tote with me in my purse when I go into town, so I don’t have to use plastic bags for any unplanned shopping
May 17th, 2010 @ 3:21 pm
I would put pens and my little writer’s notebook in it, and take it with me when I go to coffee shops.

May 17th, 2010 @ 4:00 pm
I would use it for projects or to carry small things to and from the car. In reality though, my 2 year old daughter will probably swipe it and use it to tote her favorite toys around the house.
May 17th, 2010 @ 4:01 pm

May 17th, 2010 @ 4:28 pm
Oh, this is lovely, makes me think of cool frosty mornings for some reason.
I’d use it to carry my sketch books and pencils, i think. Looks like the perfect size, skinny and tall.
May 17th, 2010 @ 4:36 pm
I would use it for craft projects. I love sewing yoyos so this would be perfect to use. I would be able to take them out and about with me and sew anytime I have to wait around for something (you know, doctor’s appointment or train, that kind of thing) I think your giveaway is just lovely!
jessmellifont@gmail.com
May 17th, 2010 @ 4:38 pm

May 17th, 2010 @ 4:53 pm
I’d use it for a project bag for my knitting! Lovely colour combination!
May 17th, 2010 @ 5:08 pm
Very lovely bag – I love working with upholstery samples (I get them from freecycle, and have bought sample books at fabric stores!) – it has a really nice feel to it, and is lovely to sew on. I would use the bag to carry my ever-present notebook (because the older I get, the more forgetful I become, lol) and whatever novel I’m currently reading
May 17th, 2010 @ 5:13 pm
cute bag…I would use it for going to the shops!!

Hi! What a nice bag – im in LOVE!
If I was the lucky one to win it I think I would use it as a purse….it is just too nice to have “only” for my crocheting projects…
May 18th, 2010 @ 6:34 am
Love it! I would use it when I needed to take a book back to the library after dropping the kids at school
May 18th, 2010 @ 7:10 am

Julie, your creations are so unique and inspirational, beautiful work I came across your blog because of Sew Mama! I am a new follower. I would use the giveaway bag for my biblestudy journal,bible and workbook I carry usually bu hand on Monday nights, it would work beautifully.

Love the bag, kind of looks like dragonflys.I’d use it to cary my take along quilt I do while waiting for my little ones at gymnastics.
May 18th, 2010 @ 7:47 am
The fabric you chose is just lovely! I can see myself using this a traveling craft project bag to hold a project that I can take with me to waiting rooms or parks (usually embroidery). Thanks for the chance to win!
May 18th, 2010 @ 7:48 am
Oh, nice fabric! That would be perfect for keeping a cross-stitch and accessories in. Much better than wondering where I put the little scissors last, and if I’d get to them before the toddler does. She’s *quick*.
May 18th, 2010 @ 8:02 am
Lovely tote! Thanks for such a sweet giveaway
I’d use the tote to keep my wips (especially small shawls)…
May 18th, 2010 @ 8:13 am
I love this! The colors are great! I would use this as a “diaper bag”. I’ve never liked traditional diaper bags, they are huge and bulky. I only need to carry a diaper or two and a couple of little toys to keep my little one occupied. This looks perfect!
May 18th, 2010 @ 8:22 am
I would use it as purse!

May 18th, 2010 @ 1:58 pm
I would use a bag like that all the time – for all different things.
Looks like it could hold diapers and wipes for small trips. Could hold goodies for bigger kids. could hold a book, ipod for me. could hold maps on long trips. Or crocheting or hand piecing materials. Lots of ideas!

Oh wow! Well I think the bag and the fabric is just too pretty for daily use with two kids often tugging at me with sticky hands!
I think I’d really enjoy it as my “nightly reading bag”. A little treat for me at the end of each day, I’d fill it with a book or two each day and have it waiting for me on a its own dedicated hook – encouraging me to crawl into bed a bit early (except on these SMS giveaway nights, ha!)
thanks so much! xo.
