There's been a lot of thread through the needles since then.
But I thought I'd do a little giveaway to celebrate. I went to the pattern cabinet and pulled out 8 patterns to put into an envelope and mail to one interested Sew Random reader.
I tried to get a smattering of designs and pattern companies...and I will admit that a couple of them hurt just a little....those Big Envelope patterns , well, you know...
But a giveaway ought to be worth doing, right? And the winner can either keep all 8 patterns, or pull out the ones they're interested in, add a couple from their stash and give it all away again and we'll call it a pattern pyramid.
Anyway, a week from today I'll randomly draw a name from everyone who leaves a comment on this post and bundle up the lot and send them to you. And if I have to spend $$ on postage to somewhere overseas, well, I will.
Cause you guys have hung with me through a lot of good, bad and ugly, and I'm grateful!
Wow ... 8 years?? Congrats! I've enjoyed your blog and look forward to the next 8. And thanks for the chance at a generous giveaway. I spy at least 3 that are grabbing my attention. :-)
ReplyDeleteCongratulations Lisa on 8 years! It's funny how those blog years roll by! I've enjoyed following your blog! Here's to many more years!
ReplyDeleteHas it really been 8 years? I don't remember when I found your blog, but I went back to the beginning at some point and read through it. Have really enjoyed reading!
ReplyDeleteHappy 8 years! And here's to many, many more years of happy sewing ahead. Love the selection of patterns you have pulled together, a great selection indeed ... J
ReplyDeleteWow that is blogging dedication! I must admit I pop by the blog quite often to see what you are sewing up and would love to be in the giveaway draw even though I am overseas (UK). Thanks Ruthie
ReplyDeleteCongrats on 8 years! I'd love to be included in the drawing. Should I win, then I'll just have to find time (and mojo) to sew some of them.
ReplyDeleteI enjoy stopping by to look at your blog. 8 years is quite an accomplishment- keep up the good work!
ReplyDelete8 years? Congratulations! And thanks for sticking with it!
ReplyDeleteWill it mess with your drawing if I ask NOT to be included? I have a few of those already and about a bajillion more...
LOL...no, Kathleen, that won't matter; I just won't put your name in the hat :-) And thanks for all the support through the years!
DeleteCongrats on 8 years! I'm a reader of your blog just don't have one of my own. Maybe one day....
ReplyDeleteYou were one of the first blogs I started reading. I've been lurking since 2007-ish. Your stats encouraged me to start keeping track of my own sewing. I get closer to sewing up as much as I buy every year. I like reading about your sewing adventures.

Aw, thanks, Amy! And you've reminded me... I need to check and see if blogger has the widget issue fixed so I can update my stats...
DeleteYes! Throw my name in your generous giveaway! Hopefully it will inspire me to sew something instead of read sewing blogs, buy fabric and dream about things I want to make!
ReplyDeleteCongrats on the 8 years of blogging and the wonderful sewing projects you've shared with us
