quilted bags & gifts ~ a giveaway

I'm really happy about this news.  Akemi Shibata's book is finally available in English and I happen to have a spare copy to give away.  Zakkaworkshop kindly asked me to help as one of the English editors and I'm really proud to have been involved in bringing this lovely book to the English-speaking part of the world.  It has so many beautiful and fun projects.  I've already made two (including the coolest bag I've ever made ;) and I plan to make more cute things.

Ok.  To enter this giveaway, just leave a comment here stating your favourite season. That's it!

Happy Sunday, all!

PS:  Zakkaworkshop - along with selling the book in their online shop - will also be selling all the cool hardware that is used in this book.  I'll let you know when!

My favorite season is Fall. The leaves on the trees change color. The weather is cooler (especially in the south). People seem happier and life seems to slow down just a little.

[Kelly]

My favorite season is probably autumn. I love the cooler nights and beautiful foliage up here in New England. I used to teach and September always felt like a time of new beginnings - perhaps the real start of the New Year! However, the other seasons also have their own charms and pleasures.
