Another giveaway? So soon?!


Late last week I received a message from Samantha from Pattern Crush (funny how both my sponsors are named Samantha!) saying that Windham sent her a couple free charm packs of Heather Ross's Briar Rose to giveaway! So we're giving one away here this week! Yep, you heard me right, that's BEFORE the fabric arrives in stores! So to snag some Briar Rose early leave a comment below. 



Here are the rules:

  1. One comment - tell me something, anything. A funny joke? Your fav way to entertain small children in the summer? Whatever you like.
  2. One comment - follow me on bloglovn (or any other way: twitter, facebook, instagram, flickr) and leave a comment saying so.
  3. One comment - follow Pattern Crush (blog, newsletter, instagram, facebook, twitter) and leave a comment saying so.

    I'm going to jump in first here! Pretty sure I already do #2 and# 3......so that leaves me with one option. My fun summer kid activity is shaving cream fun. It's so smooshy! Add food colors, play, "paint" in the back yard, rinse liberally. Child does not even know they've been washed: bonus.

    My son is young enough that it doesn't take a whole lot to entertain him. We did go to a swim park for the first time last weekend and I see a lot more of that in our future :)

    Hmm... I have no jokes but I LOVE sidewalk chalk with the nieces during the Summer. And you can never go wrong with turning on the sprinklers =)

    In the summer just toss the kids outside and they'll entertain themselves with their imagination - you just have to play along with the storyline.

    My kiddo's (8 & 14) have been doing a lot of camping in the yard this summer as well as taking walks and swimming. They also love to do crafts on those days when everyone feels lazy. Today they are wanting to do origami.

    Thanks for the wonderful giveaway. These fabrics would be wonderful to put on the back of the latch hook pillows the kids are working on.

    My favorite way to entertain young children over the summer is water. Pool, water balloons, sprinklers, anything with water.

    I have bought lots of different hats ( kids size ) in a kind of Halloween costume shop. My little nephew uses them every single day in his play. The same. ( bowler ) hat is a " fireman's" hat, Michael Jackson's hat, a pirate hat and of course a police officer's hat! He just loves dressing up with hats and little vests.

    My three-year-old granddaughter loves to play "fabric." I give her a big pile of small scraps and she puts them onto my flannel design wall. The objective of the game is to cover the whole wall as high as she can reach.

    When impatients go to seed a little ribbed pod appears. My grandmother taught me how to gently squeeze the pods when they are ready and they POP open! They will do this by themselves and throw the tiny brown seeds far. I always laugh because volunteer impatiens come up through the bushes by my parents front door from seeds popping out of the flowers in pots. They even will cover the front door with seeds. I can never pass an impatient without popping a pod if it is ready and thinking of my Grandmother.
