I had so much fun with this contest! Thank you so much for sharing your stories with me! I had so much fun reading them. I also want to thank Shambhala Publications for donating these wonderful books for our giveaway!
Without further ado, the winners are:
Alex"I don't really remember my first sewing project, I was just a girl. I remember sewing doll clothes by draping little bits of fabric onto Barbie dolls and making a few stitches. They were hideous and usually fell apart instantly."
"I don't think that I did any sewing as a child, despite the fact that my mom and grandma were always sewing! I decided about a year and a half ago that it would be fun to try sewing some stuff, so I asked my mom for a sewing machine for Christmas. With the sewing machine, she gave me a kit to make an apron, and it turned out really well! Since I got my sewing machine, I have made 2 quilts, dresses, shirts, and pj's for my daughter, knitting needle holders, doll quilts, colored pencil holders, and who knows what else! Who knew that I would turn into such an addict??"

"In 7th
grade I made a cotton top in home ec class. I was in the midst of a
growth spurt (I'm 6 feet tall now) so by the time I finished the top,
it was too small! My mother was proud none the less. "

"Hmmm... I think my first sewing project was when I was in high school. It was a denim skirt that I never ended up wearing. My second project was a dress that I never finished (but I still have the fabric!), and then I took a sewing break for like 7-8 years to recover!"
Congratulations! I already emailed the winners! If you didn't get an email then leave me a comment on this post with your email so I can contact you.
