Giveaway: Bunny seeking kind new home

by Helen on May 16, 2013

Giveaway for Bustle & Sew

 Do you remember my Fuzzypeg softie pattern?  He was such fun to sew that I’ve made another – this time a friendly blue bunny in the softest felted cashmere.  His tummy is Fox Hollow organic cotton, and he has the cutest woolly pompom tail.  But …. he has nobody to love him.  Fuzzy lives here with me, and I don’t have room for another rabbit on my shelf, which means that this little fellow is looking for a kind new home – can you help?

  For the chance to win this little blue bunny please leave a comment below telling me what new softie pattern you’d like to see in the Bustle & Sew softie store.     The winner will be chosen by random selection and I will post worldwide.  The draw will close at midnight BST on Tuesday 21 May.

Good luck everyone!

I know that today is Mother’s Day in the United States.  Here in the UK we enjoyed our Mother’s Day back in March – but I’ve decided to celebrate all over again!  And because it’s not really Mother’s Day here, my gift is for all my free newsletter readers – whether you’re a mother or not!  It’s a copy of my Bustle & Sew Magazine….. 

Bustle & Sew Magazine April 2013

 If you’re  a newsletter reader, then just go to your free patterns library page on my website and you’ll be able to download your copy there.  If you’re not already a reader and would like to receive this magazine, then all you need to do is join using the form in the right hand sidebar.  You’ll then receive a link to the free patterns library – as well as more goodies over the coming weeks.  (And don’t worry, I never share your email address with anyone else).

Happy Mother’s Day!

Easter Eggstravaganza – Part One

by Helen on March 26, 2013

Today is bitterly cold and grey once more.  I am reminded of Narnia in CS Lewis’s “The Lion, the Witch and the Wardrobe” where the White  Witch holds Narnia in her frozen grasp – a time where it is always winter – but never Christmas.  Brrrrr…  

So I thought to cheer myself up I would have an Easter Eggstravaganza here at Bustle & Sew.  This will be a three-part event, starting today with a special offer for my Bustle & Sew Magazine ….. 

Easter Offer at Bustle & Sew

 Instead of chocolate bunnies (hard to give away online!) , I have decided to give away my Calendar Bunnies Quilt pattern book to all magazine subscribers this Easter.  

This means that when you subscribe you’ll receive the current issue together with The Stitcher’s Companion straight away, and then the new – April – issue on Thursday, together with the Calendar Bunnies Quilt Pattern book. (this is an Easter gift to all subscribers – both existing and new).   This offer is only valid until Easter – so please don’t delay – you can learn more and subscribe here.

I’ll be back on Thursday with Part Two of my Easter Eggstravaganza – watch this space!
