Hi everyone!

Happy Wednesday! We hope you are all having a fantastic day!! It’s super cold here and we should be expecting a couple more centimeters of snow, we’re hoping it will be the last with the end of February nearing.

Today we are announcing the winner of our Chalkboard Fabric Giveaway! We want to thank everyone for taking the time to participate in last week’s Winsday. We wanted to know what you would create with our chalkboard fabric, and we received lots of innovative and great answers!! We have the most creative readers ever!! :)

After reading all the answers, it was definitely not an easy feat to choose just one. But alas, we can only choose one winner for our giveaway. Our chalkboard fabric winner is…

Congratulations, Lacey Dudiak!! Everyone had such creative answers, but we especially adored Lacey’s idea “I teach little ones with learning difficulties, and I would turn this chalkboard fabric into many different letter-tracing/fine-motor/spatial awareness activities! I could also use it to sew a small patch on a student’s backpack (maybe heart or star shape) to write notes or reminders on that are visible right before they leave school!  Or, I could add a fun bias edging and turn it into a multi-purpose floor mat- hopscotch, car mat, jump to the letter, etc. OK… I need this!” – We hope you enjoy our chalkboard fabric, Lacey!

Be sure to look out for next week’s Winsday! It’s going to be another fun one. Until next post, have a great day everyone!! :)

Happy Sewing!
