Giveaway: 250 Followers!

peonies are always appropriate

Update: the contest is now closed. Congratulations to isaspacey of As I Said…, I\’m sending you an email!

In April I held a giveaway in honor of you all; this blog had reached 100 followers after several years of intermittent posting and a lot of neglect. I\’m so pleased to be back with another one–this one for hitting 250 of you lovely readers! Thank you all so much, I\’m thrilled to be a part of your bloglovin\’ feeds.

I started this blog in 2012, but it was only this year that I really started trying to make a go of it, posting regularly and taking semi-decent pictures (for the most part). I also did a little blog redesign and got a new name and a custom URL to match. Thanks for being there with me through several changes!

To thank all of you, I\’m hosting another giveaway. It\’s running from today until the 21st (two weeks) and the winner will be the recipient of a mystery box filled with sewing goodies, treats, and some vintage patterns as well!

Rafflecopter–so annoying, but I\’d love to check out y\’all\’s instagrams and blogs (if I don\’t follow you already) and facebook pages (if you have them) so I\’ll be poking around after you!

Edited to add: this giveaway is open internationally! I will mail my mystery box wherever it can go!

Finally, I wanted to say: in addition to a fancy URL, etc., etc., you may have noticed I\’ve been adding some shopping widgets and the like. For the sake of transparency, here\’s a bit of my thought process: I love sewing–this will always be a sewing blog–but I\’m trying to also get into the & style part of sewing & style. As this blog grows, as I hope it will, I\’d rather it veer into personal style & sewing rather than into the business of sewing, with patterns and the like. You may or may not care about this, but I thought I\’d let you know!
Again–thank you all so much for reading, and good luck!

xoxo,
allie

  2. Congratulations indeed! Love seeing what you come up with. I second what missmaddysews asked – is this an international giveaway? Following you from the UK here!

  4. Congrats lady cakes! I hope you get to 500 even sooner! I already follow you on facebook and Insta so im commenting to enter. My fave non sewing blog is Designlovefest. Bri is like my dream girl (love heart eyes emoji)

  16. Yay! I'll enter now 🙂 my favourite non-sewing blog is The Lingerie Addict – although seeing so many expensive pretty underthings is very trying on my budget!

  18. Congratulations! Favourite non sewing blog is probably Humans of New York but sometimes it makes me cry not smile

  21. Non sewing blogs? Hmmmm….I don't read to many of those! Let me see….NieNie Dialogues or Chronically Vintage….and by the way, I love your style! I totally want to make similar things!
