So recently I hit my 200th post and with the holidays in the mix it basically went by unnoticed. Time to celebrate!!! To think I have had well over 200 different things I wanted to talk about and that you read them! So as a way to say thanks and keep the creative juices flowing around the world I am offering up a box to one lucky reader filled to the max with all kinds of crafty goodness but mostly fabric. We are talking new, old, and very vintage fabric. Buttons, ribbon, and various trims. I may even throw in a book or magazine.
You have until Thursday January 17th to sign up. Leave me a comment and let me know what you would like to see or not see on my blog this year.
Anyone and everyone can sign up, note though if you are outside of the US your box of goodies may be a little smaller due to the cost of shipping.

I'd love to see anything you have done with vintage fabrics. They have so much history and a life of their own. I'd love to win your surprise box...what fun.
I agree with sbonetsue on seeing things you're doing with vintage fabrics! I don't know of a decent place to get vintage fabs around here! Throw me into the box chances please!
Thanks! I look forward to reading the next 200!!
Congratulations on 200 posts!
I love posts about your projects and amusing photos. I could do without the big long list memes, but I really don't mind them - I just have a tendency to scroll past them, for the most part.

I love to see the finished products as well as the process of making! Mostly because I the inspiration is good for me, because I'm not the type of person who can create ideas on my own.
More pictures of the cute kid and the dog are good too ;)
I just love perusing your blog and loving all the crafty beauties! Vintage fabric? Did someone say vintage fabrics? I wouldn't pass that up!

Congrats on the 200th post.
I would LOVE to see more tutorials. Keep up the good work!!
The one thing I always like is lables for posts. It is so much easier to find things. Great giveaway!
I just found your site (also via Sew, Mama, Sew) and have enjoyed looking through some old posts. I don't know if I should say what I would or would not like to see since I'm a new reader, but I'll throw in my two cents anyway. :)
I love to see what you're making and love those photos of your daughter and your dog. (I also have a beagle -- with plenty of photos on my blog.) Like ikkinlala, I don't usually read the memes.
Congrats on the 200th post!
I came via Sew Mama Sew, so I don't yet know what your blog's about, but on with the craftiness, I say! :)
Congratulations on your 200th post! Anything creative and crafty is fun to read about.
Also, yay for the Packers!

I love tutorials and just any fun, easy ideas of things to make. One thing that I am always at a loss for is what to make for kids between the ages of 6-12. I have cute baby, little kid projects that I like to make for gifts, but that 6-12 age group is a hard one for me. So, if you have any ideas for them, I'd love to see them!
Congrats on your 200th post! I came over via Sew Mama Sew. I'd love to see any posts relating to quilting. And I'd love to win some of your fabric stash. I'm collecting purple fabrics for a scrappy quilt.
I love reading about projects. I'm always inspired by the way others see beauty.
wow! great find! i would love to see more things for kiddos...always looking for ideas.
I will be linking your blog to mine!
A couple other crafty people out there in my world would enjoy what you have to say!
Congratulations on all the wonderful things you have done so far!
I'm a crafty mom, so I love to see handmade things for wee ones! Love your blog.

I love sewing tutorials! Especially of things I can make for my little girl. :) Congrats on the 200 comments! What great fun!
I kind of stumbled across your blog a little while ago, and I have to say that I LOVE all of the pictures that you put up, especially the flickr ones! I also love that a few weeks ago you said that you have only been sewing for a little bit, and it encouraged me so much! You have made so many beautiful things! So thanks for the encouragement and inspiration!
What a cool giveaway! Please enter me! I'm new to your blog, but I've loved what I've seen so far.
Congrats on your 200th post.
I am a Mama. I am a crafter and sewer. And I am a wanna be photographer. I am attracted to blogs with tutorials, photos, and being REAL. So-that is what I like to see. PLease enter me in your drawing. It would make my WEEK if I won! Thanks for offering it!
I just discovered your blog via Sew Mama Sew. I love everything I've seen so far, so I would say moe of the same. I'll be back to visit very soon.

I love your blog! I can so relate to the stop shopping for all the stuff we really don't need. I agree, most people think your nuts to deprieve your child of plastic. I've tried to adopt this attutude along with fashion rewardrobe challenge, I think I reduced our family imprint slightly! Would love to see more vintage fabrics, and quilt ideas!

Just found your blog and I love it already. And your daughter is a cutie!!

I am new to your blog and voraciously reading back... I love seeing what other Mom's are doing, and finding inspiration to my own ideas.
Please add me to your incredibly fun sounding giveaway... a box full of sewing and crafty goodness would be just the ticket to a bleary upstate NY winters day. -grins-

Yay! 200 posts is pretty remarkable, a lot of discipline to post regularly! Keep it coming, I love this blog!

What a fun idea, any tutorials using vintage felted sweaters would be great!
oh count me in for a chance! how fun!
I always love tutorials, and reading about what kind of functional things people make for their homes! It seems like I am always sewing but have few things made by me that we actually USE. ;)
I love seeing tutorials. It helps a ton to really be able to understand projects that I otherwise would dare to try! Keep up the good work!
I'd love to see anything you do with vintage fabrics. Just found your blog!
Congratulations on reaching (and passing!) your 200th post!! I can't wait to see what comes next. Mary A.
Hi,
I'd love to see your vintage finds and what you do with them, particularly using vintage fabrics. Also, as I'm from Northern Ireland, how about the odd photo of Wiscosin as it makes me think of the 'Little House on the Prairie' series which I read as a girl, and loved.Thanks.
Hi, I'm a regular lurker to your blog. :)
Congratulations on your 200th post.
Please count me in on the giveaway.
Anything having to do with vintage fabrics ranks high on my list. Also, I seem to be in a tote bag rut, and would like to see some different types of (simple) sewing projects.
Thanks! Kimberly :)
I also come by way of the Sew, Mama, Sew blog. Cool stuff going on here.
I love tutorials and am comming to love vintage fabric. Thanks for the giveaway.

I would love to see more turorial type posts. I love to see the finished products as well, but am often stumped as to how it was made. Keep on creating good quality, long lasting masterpieces.
Definitely more of your completed projects. It is so much fun to share inspiration with and see what others have created!
Tutes! Vintage! Love it all.
I think you are doing a great job with your blog. I just recently found you and I love reading everything. I do agree with some of the other comments though and would love to see what you are doing and learn how to do some of it myself. Thanks for the amazing giveaway too. Here's hoping you pick me!
As a fellow mom of littles, I think it's way cool seeing another mom provide the everyday extras that only crafty moms can. Congrats on your 200 posts...that's quite an accomplishment!
would love to read about your sewing projects, with pics, of course!
I'm a newby seamstress, myself.

I'm new to your blog -- but I'm pretty easy to please. Show me pretty fabrics and fun things made from them and I'm a happy camper!
i just started reading your blog a while ago. i would love to see some tutorials for the things that you make. also, i am just a sucker for pretty fabric and cute kid pictures.
holy moly 83 comments! Well happy 200th! I enjoy reading your blog as I relate to you a lot! I especially love all your vintage finds.
As a mom of a little one, I like to see projects that are simple and don't require a lot of materials.
Congratulations on your 200th post. I always love just seeing pictures (lots of pictures) of what people create. :D
I love reading your blog and especially enjoyed the "Please tell me I am normal" post, as I can totally relate. I look forward to reading more of your creations and seeing your pictures. Congrats on the 200th+ posts!
'grats on hitting 200 posts! I like to see process shots, fabric to FO
Wow, I just found your blog and now I can't wait to go through all your archives. Love seeing your projects, fabric, and your living cuties, too.
I would love to see hints on how to use vintage fabrics, i.e. how to ensure the fabrics are strong enough and how to stabilize a weak fabric.
I am just getting back into sewing for my children, or at least thinking about it lots! I really get inspired by your work. I love the vintage fabrics. Congrats on your 200th post.
Thanks for doing the contest!

Hi. I just found your blog and enjoyed looking around. I enjoy your photography and you have a beautiful child. I love color, texture, fiber, beads, etc. I am in particular looking for more uses of vintage textiles that get them out of the closet but not use them up.
Another Sew Mama Sew transfer... I've been poking around a bit and want to thank SMS for constantly referring me to such fabulous crafty sites! I love tutorials and have to agree with others, I'm just getting into quilting so more tutorials and quilting (or a combo!) Thanks!
Linked over from Sewmamasew...I love seeing tutorials and general crafty inspiration!
Congratulations on post 200!
I'm a lurker but have never posted - I love your blog and get lots of inspiration and ideas, just never think I have anything new to add. But I'm resolved to post and since there's a giveaway at stake, all the better! Best wishes for another 200 plus posts!
Sara
Congratulations! I'm a lurker, but have never left a comment - get tongue-tied a guess, but when there's a giveaway at stake, guess I'll put in my 2 cents. I really enjoy your blog and get lots of inspiration and idea - I've bookmarked a number of pics and posted them on my inspiration board. Thanks and best wishes on another 200 plus posts!
Sara
I found your blog on Sew Mama Sew, and it's very inspiring! :)
I'd love to see what you do with vintage textiles and fabrics, especially if you use them to make things for your little one.
I am a huge fan of tutorials...everything from purses to clothing! Since I'm a beginner sewer, I really enjoy reading about all aspects of sewing!
Congratulations on your 200th post. I have a daughter about your daughter's age and it has caused me to broaden my sewing horizons as well. The fact that I live on an island in Panama makes it a bit of a necessity as well.
I love vintage fabrics and anything made from them I also love tutorials on how to make great and easy things.
oh boy, I love tutorials and seeing what everyone else is up to, to get inspiration. Congrats to you on 200!!!
Tutorials, softies, and anything little girlish!
