It's here again. Yay! Sew, Mama, Sew! is doing it again, their Giveaway
Sew, Mama, Sew! has ingeniously broken down on how you can go to giveaways that appeal to you. If you're just interested in bags there is a whole giveaway section for that, or if it's just supplies you want well there are giveaways for you too. Just hop on over to Sew, Mama, Sew! to see the list of all the bloggers and shops who are participating.
I will be participating in two giveaways this time, one will be a bag, as seen in this post (see below), and the other will be supplies, a bundle of 10 vintage sheet fat quarters. To enter for the fat quarters go to this separate post.
As some of you already know I'm into vintage sheets. I love the flow-y, softness of them and their colors are fantastic. This has become my median of choice for my sewing/crafting/obsession. My handmade items I sell on Etsy are mainly out of vintage sheets, with the occasional new fabric listing. Right now I have a variety of bags, bunting, and fat quarter bundles. All out of vintage sheets.
So for this giveaway you have a chance to win your choice, from my Etsy Shop, Reversible Vintage Sheet Market Bag. A fantastic large bag for a weekend around town, or everyday use,
and don't forget...it's reversible.
Approx. measurements
19" across
20" from bottom to top of handle
14" from bottom to bottom of handle
You have two chances to enter.
1.) All you need to do to enter is leave a comment. Any comment is fine. Do you love vintage sheets? Tell me why. Or what random things would you throw into such a large bag?
2.) For a second entry let me know if you follow my blog (recent or old).
This giveaway is open Internationally until Friday, May 25 5:00 p.m. PST. The winner will be chosen at random that following Saturday, May 26.

Don't forget to enter Part 2 of my giveaway if you're interested in a bundle of vintage sheet fat quarters.
Happy Giveaway Day hopping.
beautiful bag! I'd always toss in my phone, wallet and keys-- and now that it's summer, probably a book and an umbrella, too (just in case)!
ReplyDeleteI also follow your blog!
ReplyDeleteI follow through my reader :)
ReplyDeleteI think this bag is beautiful, and would be great for throwing spare clothes and a beach towel in for taking my daughter down to the neighborhood pool!
ReplyDeleteI love that these bags are reversible! It's like having 2 bags in 1! I really like bigger bags because having a 3 year old means carrying around a little more than I normally would!
ReplyDeleteThanks for hosting this giveaway! I love your shop and will definitely be checking it out more often!
I have a few large bags and I find i take them to work on nightshift as they hold a lot of stuff I need
ReplyDeleteI love vintage sheets! So many memories and so soft!
ReplyDeleteLovely bag! I would throw my Nook in there, along with a couple of paperbacks, my wallet, keys, a bottle of water, actually everything that is in my purse now. LOL
ReplyDeleteThanks for the chance to win one of your lovelies.
I love vintage sheets but I've only recently started collecting, so my stash is quite small!
ReplyDeleteI need a new bag to carry all my stuff to church on Sundays and this would be perfect!
ReplyDeleteI am a happy, longtime follower :)
ReplyDeleteI love vintage sheets because they remind me of my late great aunt's linen closet when I was a child.
ReplyDeletei recently started collecting vintage sheets and pillow cases for a picnic blanket project I hope to complete this summer.
ReplyDeleteTrust me, I'd be able to fill up this bag rather quickly. I always have a notebook and a reading book and a water bottle with me along with my wallet, keys, phone, chapstick, all that usual stuff!
ReplyDeleteI love vintage sheets. Is it funny that they remind me of my grandma's house? Beautiful bag hope I win. thanks for the giveaway!

I love vintage sheets! The colors and patterns get me every time!
ReplyDeleteI'm also a new follower. Love your blog!
ReplyDeleteEek! I love that bag!
ReplyDeleteOoh. I love vintage sheets mostly for the feel/ texture - worn softness, but also the colors. This bag would most likely hold whatever my current project-on-the-go is. It could be knitting socks or a sleeve to something, or it could be some hand-sewing, perhaps a little embroidery or mending a hole in a beloved shirt. Something like that.
ReplyDeleteThis bag is gorgeous, would love to throw my crafty stuff in there for embroidery or hand sewing on-the-go!
ReplyDeleteBeautiful bag! I might use it for trips to the library.
ReplyDeleteNice bag :-) It would be great for shopping.
ReplyDeleteI love the vintage look of your bags.
ReplyDeleteI now follow your blog
ReplyDeleteI could though material into the bag. But I think I would let my daughter or wife use it as some might look at me funny.

Honestly I don't know much about vintage sheets but from reading all the comments I'm starting to think they're pretty fantastic! lol
ReplyDeleteI'm always on the lookout for more project bags for my knitting so this would be a perfect bag for a sweater project.
I'm a handmade bag addict
ReplyDeleteI've recently been making shoppping bags from vintage pillowcases, so this is right up my alley! I probably wouldn't use this for shopping, though. This would be my every day bag with my wallet, book, water bottle, travel tissues, green shopping bag (just in case), phone and car keys. That's what I usually have with me at all times
ReplyDeleteLove the colors you chose! And I love vintage sheets too. :) I just turned one into curtains for my bedroom!

ReplyDeleteWhat a great use of Vintage Sheets! I have a good supply of them in my linen closet....may just have to pull a few out and make a similar bag. I'd throw all my Bible Study stuff in mine to use each week!
ReplyDeleteI do not know where to find beautiful vintage sheets and use them as well as you:)

ReplyDeleteI love vintage sheets! Something about it brings me back to my childhood. The bag is big enough for everything from my umbrella, notebook, wallet, etc, etc. How fun would this be in the summer time? Thanks for the giveaway!
ReplyDeletevintage sheets remind me of my parent's sheets growing up! :) i still have some that i use for everyday ... and bags like this are so nice instead of grabbing plastic grocery sacks to put stuff in...changes of clothes, notebook and things for a meeting...etc...

I love the feel and color of vintage sheets. I also enjoy repurposing and using sheets certainly fits that bill.
ReplyDeleteLove vintage sheets - usually they have pretty color combos
ReplyDeleteI love that bag, especially that it's reversible! Vintage sheets, yay! Why don't they make sheets like that anymore?
ReplyDeleteI'm a new follower :)
ReplyDeleteI do love vintage sheets. It's the colors, softness, and the idea that someone used to love them just as much as I love them now. Thanks for the giveaway.
ReplyDeleterobyn(dot)Geddes(at)gmail(dot)com
I'd carry knitting supplies in that, plenty of room for everything I'd need!
ReplyDeleteI love vintage sheets. I'm planning a quilt made of hexes.
ReplyDeleteI am seriously crushing on this bag and especially love that it is reversible and both sides are beautiful. I love vintage sheets too and I buy them whenever I can find them. There is something about the history and they quality is better than new sheets.

I would the bag as a gift bag. It looks like it would hold quilt. What better gift to give than a quilt and a bag.
ReplyDeleteI am trying to be more green and this bag would sure help with that.
ReplyDeleteI am now following you.
ReplyDeleteI love to find sheets at thrift stores or garage/estate sales. There's so much variety and I love the thrill of the hunt!

ReplyDeleteI love vintage sheets. I would toss in some lip gloss, a book, sunglasses, and my camera.
ReplyDeleteThat's a pretty bag! I'd use it for library books.
ReplyDeleteI think this bag will work perfectly for some thrifty shopping at the local flea markets and charity stores around Cape Town. I love going in rainy weather as most people opt to stay indoors and I have the bargain shopping all to myself :)
ReplyDeleteThank you for a great prize and the chance to win it.

I have not made anything yet with vintage sheets. I know years ago, we used to back our quilts with sheets but then were told that wouldn't work as well. I have seen some lovely quilts made with them now though.
ReplyDeletei haven't made anything with vintage sheets but think they are very pretty!
