Sew, Mama, Sew Giveaway Day 2010


It's Giveaway Day! I am offering this mug rug featuring my hand printed linocut goldfish bag with a freezer paper stencilled little fish swimming around in it. The mug rug is pieced with a selection of orange and turquoise fabrics with a touch of natural linen thrown in for good measure. The tea and cookies are not included but here is the recipe if you want to give it a try!

You are aware of the mug rug craze right? A mug rug is a mini quilt that can be used as you would a coaster but there is room for a snack in addition to your mug! This one measures abou 7" x 9."

Your mug rug will be packaged in a reusable gift bag. You can pick the bag you would like from my shop. This is just one example.
My giveaway is open to everyone (international included) and will close on midnight December 17th. To enter, please just leave a nice comment. I will draw a random number and email the winner. Please make sure you leave your contact information. As soon as you get back to me with your address and choice in gift bag, your package will be in the mail!
Since only one person can win the giveaway, I am offering everyone who visits this blog page a 10% discount from my etsy shop through the December 17th. Just use the code "SEWMAMASEW10" when you checkout. I will ship same day if you order before noon, or the next morning otherwise.
Good luck!
