Apron Giveaway and Martha Stewart

Boy, I almost didn't make the September Giveaway!

I'm having another giveaway, a fall apron I had made. Just leave a post and your name will be in. I know this contest want have a lot of time, but the deadline will be October 2nd. That way the October giveaway will have time to run.

This apron pattern is one of the most popular, fits all sizes and has a little flounce at the bottom for the girlie look. Ties at the sides. I have this Indygo Junction Pattern in the online shop. www.calamityjanescottage.com

Martha Stewart

Martha Stewart is having a blog contest and you may even get to be on her show. If you go here and leave a comment you will be entered. I still can't believe I invited someone like Martha or a staff member to read my blog. This kinda leads to a story I have to tell ya about when I was in High School.

I took homemaking (favorite subject) and then I took business courses, you know the one back then that had calculators, Dictaphones, typing, no computers when I was in school. Anyway, my homemaking teacher and my business course teacher called me into a meeting. I thought oh no, what have I done. You see I could type 60 words a minute, (that was with just copying a page) but on a Dictaphone I had to stop every other word just to look it up in the dictionary. They told me at this meeting I should go with my homemaking skills. I guess they were correct in guiding me in that direction. I thank spell check now, just wish they had grammar check on here.

Don't forget to leave a post so I can put your name in the drawing!

Time To Post My Giveaway

Getting Ready For Fall

Deadline August 28th

I'm late posting this because I got the great idea of making two, one to giveaway and one for the shop, www.calamityjanescottage.com . I might take better pictures tomorrow and post them. It has been raining here and the pictures came out a little foggy.

I love different purses for the season. This pattern is from Indygo Junction-The Crestwood and it turned out larger than I expected. There are two pockets on the inside and I used denim in the inside to give it some body. It has a pin on it for closure and I scrunched the fabric on the handles. I have the pattern if you are interested.

I will put your name in twice if you leave me a post and post about it on your blog. Deadline for entries will be August 28th and I will announce the winner before Labor Day weekend.

Good Luck to everyone.
