Owl Wallhanging, Giveaway Day (week) is here!

Ok so It is finally here! You're chance to win the very first Sew Little Fabric Wallhanging!!!
Designed by myself and beautifully stitched out by Lesley (my mum and co-creator of SLF) this is the very first design we are offering for sale. We will be selling the pattern as a PDF on etsy, complete with the easy to follow instructions of how to complete this cute little wallhanging, the embroidery design and colour chart. Measuring around 7 1/2 x 8 1/2 inches, it looks so cute hanging from a branch. It is also a great candidate for Redwork or Blackwork and we are also working on six other co-ordinating designs, each with it's own project, that will be able to be combined into a gorgeous lap or cot quilt.

Ok so here's how to win, simple really! All we want you to do is leave us a comment telling us about the last pattern you bought and where you got it from. Thats it! Easy Peasy!


Depending on how many comments we get, we may also offer a PDF copy of the design as an extra giveaway!


Entry's will be open until the 31st of May (Australian time)and the winner will be drawn randomly on the 1st of June. We will post internationally so enter now! Good Luck!

    Let's see - the last pattern that I purchased was a purse for me (still a work in progress) from Joann's fabrics.
    The last pattern book I purchased was at Hastings bookstore and was 50 Christmas ornaments made in a variety of mediums (sewn, knit, crochet, embroidered, etc.).

    Last pattern I purchased was Ottobre Magazine for Women. I needed it to make maternity clothing!

    I really really adore this owl! My husband and I have a running joke about owls and the decor of the nursery for our twin girls! This would be a perfect way to make us both laugh each time we opened the door (even if they are both screaming!)
