A Winner!

I actually have two winners to talk about today~
the contest winner (more on that later) and a 'winner' of a pattern! :-)

With back to school right around the corner, I recently had the pleasure of testing a book bag design by Shelly of The Grey Wren.
This was the first time I have tested a pattern for Shelly and I loved it! She tells you where she purchased her supplies and the cost, so you have a good idea what to look for and where to find it. :-)
She takes a lot of photos, so each step is easy to complete.
I made the Wren Elementary Sized book bag.~




 The bottom is faux leather, the main bag a decorator weight print and the inside a quilters cotton print.  I really like how it turned out. Shelly sells the pattern in her Etsy shop (link above) at a very good price!  

The next winner is the winner of my little guessing game in my last post.
It was Multnomah Falls in Oregon~ a really beautiful waterfall!! In fact, there were a lot of lovely falls just down the road from each other and DH and I had a lot of fun exploring each one.

I put all your names in the hat and DH drew for me~
the winner is .....

Congratulations!  If you can send me your snail mail address I will finish up your little prize this week. ;-) 

Until next time~
Happy Stitchin'!!

The backpack looks amazing! I love the matching faux leather bottom. Whoever receives this backpack is going to be over the moon.

That looks great and is so practical too.

Who knew that having a Halloween Hop last week would bring the chilly weather?! We had rain, wind--- the power even went out for a few hours...
