Sew Spoiled Edith Apron Giveaway!

After making many Aprons in an Hour from Fabritopia's free tutorial and her Edith Twirl Skirt, I wondered if the two could be combined to make an Edith Apron! It can be done and here is the end result. This is also my March Sew Spoiled Giveaway Gift this month!
Just incase you have not noticed, I am trying to giveaway one Sew Spoiled gift each month! January was my Scrap Happy Giveaway with the Tic Tac Toe Pincushion, Birdie appliques and the Buttercup Bag, February was Name this Bag month and I gave away one free Sew Spoiled Cabrio Tote ePattern and this month, March is the Edith Apron! So make sure you check each month for the fun surprise! This month is extra special because it is Sew Spoiled's Birthday month! Two years ago, March 22, 2008, I began selling my first Sew Spoiled Wristlet epattern! Just two years later I have over 12 different patterns in my shop and can be found in 3 other online stores. (You Can Make This, Pink Chalk Studio and Above All Fabric) I have recently written for Sew New magazine and my work was featured on the front cover. It has been so exciting to sew and share my enjoyment with others and they too find enjoyment making gifts for others or themselves.
Back to this great giveaway, it will run through midnight on March 30, 2010 with the winners being announced on March 31, 2010. The winner will be chosen using Random.org. We will send it priority mail by April 2, 2010! All friends are welcome! What do you have to do to enter to win?? Just post a comment about a birthday wish/ memory or the latest project you want to venture! I love hearing from my readers! Please make sure that you also sign up to follow Sew Spoiled's Blog to find out about new up coming giveaways, tutorials and PDF patterns!!!
 Good Luck!!

Birthday wish? That it is just a good relaxing and fun day. The last few b-days of mine weren't that great, so I just want normal. :)

Great giveaway!

Hmmm a birthday wish? I think it would be to sleep in and have a whole day of daddy entertaining the kids so mommy could find a great pattern and sew uninterrupted for the entire afternoon. Then definitely a wonderful home cooked (by Daddy of course) dinner & DVD with my family, followed by a hot bubble bath. I know, it's a lot to ask but you did say a 'wish' right? :D

My birthday wish would be to have a whole day to run on the beach and then walk the whole island (Siesta Key), then come home and take a shower and watch tv. Something I have not done since having children...I love the apron and I love to wear aprons! My daughter says "Mom, they're for cooking, not as part of your outfit!", but I love nice aprons! My neighbor got me one for my last birthday but I love the one in this pic!

Leah, this is an easy one for me. My birthday was yesterday and as I blew out the candles my wish was to be pregnant before the end of 2010. My husband and I must do IVF with ICSI (check google) to get pregnant. That's how we had our daughter. However three more fertility treatments left us with empty arms. I just learned a couple days ago I was approved to do an IVF on our military base which is discounted; the only way we can try one more time. So my wish was (is) to get pregnant from our last treatment. I would love a serger and an embroidery machine, but neither of those would give me another child; only God in whom I put my trust.

Sweet Coin Purse Tutorial for Teacher Gifts

This time of year is so special to me because I get to show my gratitude for all of the hard work that goes into teaching my daughters. I love to make handmade gifts and this year is no exception. Since money does not grow on trees around here, I looked at my stash (I keep my scraps in hat boxes ) and tried to see what I had a lot of; small zippers, trims, Peltex strips ( from making iPad cases ), fabric scraps and some hardware for key fobs. So I set to work.  Materials: Plastic multipurpose 5" Zipper  Fabric Scraps Lightweight interfacing 808 Pellon Trims (We clipped  key fobs  with 1.5" swivel hooks onto our coin purses . There are tons of tutorials on making key fobs .) Step 1: Print out the Coin Purse Template  PDF.  Cut 2 main fabric, cut 2 lining and 2 interfacing using the template.  Optional: Cut a 2"X2" square of your choice main fabric or lining. This strip of fabric is used to clip a key fob to your coin purse later. We used a 1.5
