I'm so excited to be a part of the Sew Mama Sew Giveaway Day!!
I'd like to welcome all the new-to-my-blog readers coming from Sew Mama Sew today!! My regular readers already know about the Happy Little Pouch Hop that my friend Elaine and I are hosting right now. This hop is for all you pouch making enthusiasts! So it's only fitting that my giveaway today should be pouch related!
Today I'm giving away a box pouch and the supplies necessary to make your own pouch!
The pouch I have for you measures 6" x 4" x 2" and is made from a vinyl coated reusable shopping bag. This is the larger size (with a slight variation) of my PonToms pouch tutorial that I shared last week.
Also included with the pouch will be the supplies needed to make yourself another pouch that measures up to 7" x 3" x 3"! -Perfect for storing your rotary cutter and other sewing supplies!
To enter just drop me a line down there in the comments! You can write anything you want there to be entered - but if you'd like you can also share something fun (your fav handmade gift, something that inspires you, a story that's funny, etc). Seriously though, you can write anything in that box to be entered!
(Not related to the giveaway, but If you take a look around the blog here and like what you see - by all means click the "follow/join this site" button over there to the right!)
I'll draw a winner December 7th. Check out the other awesome giveaways here.

What a delightful giveaway!
ReplyDeleteRight now I'm creating six doll dresses for a friends niece for Christmas. There's nothing very funny about that though especially considering how frustrating it is turning out to be to sew all those tiny pieces.

ReplyDeleteThis is my first year quilting (I am a guy that has made more then 50 quilts in one year though, you will have to check out my blog to see them all) What I have never done is a bag or any thing not a quilt. So the goal for this next year is to try different things like bags, simple clothing etc.

And I can make its little twin
so then I'll have a double win!

ReplyDeleteOh, I'd love to try that pattern! Fabulous pouch!
ReplyDeleteThanks for the great giveaway!
I there,
ReplyDeleteYour blog is so cute.. and now I will hop over to your tutorial, because, maybe,... I can do some on my own ;)

ReplyDeleteThat is so cool, to repurpose that shopping bag! Would love to try my hand at making one, too! Thank you for hosting a giveaway!

love the pouches.. i think i would make them for my sister in law for a cute little gift :D
ReplyDeleteThanks for hosting this giveaway!
ReplyDeleteVery cool idea! I wish I had something terribly funny to tell, but I don't. I lead an awfully boring life. :)
ReplyDeleteWow, what a great idea for all the reusable bags I buy and forget to reuse!!! I have found that they are not really reusable if you always forget to take them with you when you go shopping!hehe What a fabulous give away this is! Thanks for the chance!

This is a great giveaway. It's a brilliant idea to use the reusable bags for the fabric! Laminate is so expensive that I've never used it. Many thanks for the chance!
ReplyDeleteellen(at)myerly(dot)net
I love pouches..yours are beautiful! I think I have no use for them...until I take a trip and end up using ziplock baggies as "containers" for makeup and other things..then I kick myself and say "why dont' you get some pouches!" Or at home and my drawer is filled with stuff, that is all over the place and I say "why don't you get some pouches!"
ReplyDeleteThanks for the chance!
great box bag and the chance to make one myself would be great. thanks for chance to win.
ReplyDeleteI love your pouches! I really want to try to make a box pouch so hopefully I can win and have that chance!

ReplyDeleteGreat pouch and such a unique medium to create it with!
ReplyDeleteThank you for the chance of winning not just one but two items. So nice to make and giveaway one of them.
ReplyDeleteI'd love to have a pouch. Making one for myself totally scares me, especially out of that fabric. So if I won you'd be pushing me out of my comfort zone. Which would be good right? And I was just looking at your pontoms last week and admiring how super teeny tiny they are.
ReplyDeleteI keep meaning to master pouches - thanks for all the good info on your blog.
ReplyDeleteWhat a great shape that pouch has! Love it! You know, it's 1:15 am. I really should stop exploring all these blogs and go to bed!!

ReplyDeleteWhile I have seen many box bags, I believe this is the first I've seen in a laminated fabric. Very smart! I am a collector of purse and pouch tutorials only I rarely make any. Execution is not my strong suit so I'm glad it is yours! Thank you for the giveaway
ReplyDeleteWhat a great project!

ReplyDeletei could really use that bag when I'm traveling. Thanks for the giveaway!
ReplyDeletewriting anything and nothing - it's snowing heavyly at the moment and as most people here think it's almost the end of the world if the snow actually stays - public transport is a mess at the moment, almost no sidewalks were cleared this morning building sites have taken a break and I made a car miss the green light because the drivier was watching my fascinated riding my bicycle through the snow ... (they are really not used to snow here)
ReplyDeleteYour pouch is so bright and fun. Thank you for the chance to win.
