Socialite Skirt GIVEAWAY

A few days ago I hit 1000 followers.  When I first started this blog I would have been happy with 100.  I just want you all to know how much I appreciate your kind words and comments.  It really makes my day.  And to be totally honest, I consider you all my friends.....it sounds much cooler to be able to say that I have 1000 friends, right?

So as a little thank you I thought I'd do a giveaway! Anyone want a Socialite Skirt?  Because that's what is up for grabs.  I will make you a Socialite Skirt completely custom to fit your body.  You can even pick the fabric!



In order to enter you must be a follower of my blog.  Just leave a comment saying what kind of fabric you would like your Socialite Skirt made out of.

For a second entry, post about this giveaway on your blog, and leave me a second comment telling me so.

Not too hard, right?  

The giveaway will go from today until Thursday, June 2nd, and I will announce the winner on Friday.


Good luck everyone!!

    So excited about this giveaway. I am in love with this skirt, but terrified to sew knits. I would love a striped one like yours-- maybe in a yellow and white or a red and white. Or blue and white. Decisions, decisions...

    Oh Wow! What an honor to have a skirt made by you! I love yours so much! I REALLY shouldn't be doing the horizontal stripes though... :( I am very into that yellow color of your pinwheel skirt though! I bet that would look amazing!

    I'm a GFC follower and a new sewer and so totally inspired by everything you make! I'd LOVE one that is in the exact same fabric you made it for you. It is so cute! Or perhaps seersucker (but would that work, it might not then be stretchy---I'll defer to you b/c you'll have the expertise to know). In the same blue as yours (or perhaps green or coral).

    Oh I'd so love to win! (almost the only thing I can think of that I'd rather win is a weekend with you to show me how better to use my sewing machine--I made your canvas beach bag and somehow yours came out so much better than mine. Sigh... I have a way to go to learn still (although I'm loving my trial and error learning along the way).
