I am sorry I didn't get this up yesterday!
We are getting down to just a couple more patterns! I cant believe we are this close to being finished. Time flies when your having fun! This time I picked the Dress with Contrasting Patches and you are going to have two months to finish!
This dress would make the perfect holiday dress, don't you think? It is a little more involved then some of the other patterns which is why you have two months, but not to worry, its not hard. I know I will need extra time with all the holidays around the corner!
Can you imagine it in Christmas red with tiny white buttons and candy cane striped patches? Or maybe a deep forest green with brown buttons and an embroidered forest friend? I cant wait to see what you all come up with.
The prize for this month is a little different. I have gotten to know you a little better through this sew a long and I wanted to do something a little more special this time. Its a surprise prize! Something knitted or sewn by me special for you! I will let you know what it is a little closer to the end of December, when its finished.
I hope you have fun with this! Happy sewing!
Hey! We were out of town this weekend, so I'm late on my usual applause :-) for the new choice. I like how you gave suggestions/starters on this pattern, for I will admit, this one had me staring BLANK. Hooray for the creativity boosts you wrote, as well.
And TWO months! I was also nervous about the December rush....which starts now for me. That's like a gift right there!

I agree with Tanya...the 2 months is a great gift right now!! I was a bit panicked as I've been working on getting my products photographed for my etsy shop and didn't get to check in until now! I thought I'd just knocked a week off my time..and you've added 4..YAY!
