Up for grabs is a set of these Christmas coasters that I've been making for my shop and for City Arts Market.


These are perfect for

*Secret Santa exchanges
*teacher gifts
*wrapping up with some cocoa or coffee for your neighbor
*or keep them for yourself!

Look What I Won!

A few weeks ago I began reading the blog Happy Find. Venus hosted a giveaway last week, and I won this sweet little pincushion.

Sunstone Soap (and a shameless self-promotion)

(image from Sunstone Soap)

Last week I entered HandmadeinPA.net's weekly giveaway, and I won! Kim from Sunstone Soap sent me three bars of delicious smelling soap that I can't wait to try. Sunstone Soaps are all-natural, 100% vegetarian, and they donate a percentage of their profits to animal welfare organizations. I'll definitely be shopping here in the future.

P.S. I just saw that I'm featured on HandmadeinPA's Vendor Spotlight today! =)

Something New + Good Mail

I really needed a new hobby (ha), so when I found out that my local yarn shop was offering a beginning knitting class, I signed up right away. Luckily, Edna, the owner, is super nice and helpful. I've been to see her twice in the last two days for help. I think I've finally got it, and my scarf should be finished just in time for the weather to get warm again.

In other news, I won an amazing giveaway from Lisa at Lazy May. I can't wait to get started on those adorable patterns! Thanks, Lisa!

Scarf Tutorial by Chara Michele

One of my very first blogging friends, Chara Michele, is hosting a giveaway to celebrate her 3 year blogging birthday. She's also put together a great scarf tutorial on her blog (see the link on my sidebar). I've been wanting to make some of these, but hopefully I'll win one of hers!

Cleaning Out (Again)

After all of my Christmas sewing, my sewing room is a disaster (I'd show you a photo, but it's too embarrassing). My scrap basket is overflowing. Every time I try to look for something, the contents of the basket end up all over the floor. I really can't stand to throw these little scraps away, though. They are just the thing to freshen up your fabric stash. I have several gallon-size bags that I'm packing up with scraps, and I'd like to share them with you!

How to enter:: Link back to this post on your own blog, and in your post write about your favorite things to do with your leftover fabric. Make sure I see your post (either leave a comment or email me: waldeckdrygoods@gmail.com). I'll pick a winner early this week.

Thanks for helping me clean up!

Ways I Could Drain My PayPal Account, Part 2

If I don't win this giveaway on Simple Mom, I will have to go buy most of these things myself!

SimpleMom Blog Giveaway

I've been reading the SimpleMom blog for a couple of weeks, and it is full of great ideas for simplifying your life and home. Right now she's giving away this awesome printer. I am not much of a gadget person, but this is one thing I would LOVE to have.

Now, it's off to work. Yep, I am now working part-time as an ESL teacher.
