Won't you join me in being Sew Grateful?

One of the things I really love about the online sewing community is how generous everyone is! There are so many giveaways, tutorials, sew-alongs, pattern and fabric swaps.  I thought it would be great to have a little challenge to show our gratitude for these things.  Hence, the 'Sew Grateful Challenge'.  As you may know, Thanksgiving is in two weeks in the United States (Nov. 24th).  It's a great holiday for celebrating and remembering to be thankful for everything we have and for our community of friends and family.

The Sew Grateful Challenge
Join me in using an item of fabric, pattern, book or other item that was given to you in a giveaway or as a present from a family member or friend and showcase your project on your blog during the week of November 21st.  This is a great time to get around to using that amazing pattern you won in a giveaway, or that lovely fabric someone gave you--even those buttons or special notions that you've received! Haven't received any material sewing items lately?  That doesn't matter either--we can be sew grateful for the time people put into organising sew-alongs, tutorials, etc.  Why not jump in and participate in that sew-along you missed or make something from that tutorial you've been thinking about?  Even if you don't get around to finishing a project, maybe spend some time blogging about what you're grateful for in relation to your hobby and the sewing community?

Feel free to grab the button and let me know if you'll be participating! I'd love to do a highlights post at the end of the week!

Readers, I don't know if I say it often enough but I really am so thankful for all of your support and lovely comments every week! Thank you so much!!
