Hi everyone!
Happy Wednesday! We hope everyone is having a wonderful day so far. The workweek is almost halfway through, and the month of January is almost coming to an end as well. Wow, where has the time gone? We are busily (and excitedly!) coming up with some fun Valentine’s Day themed things for the blog so be sure to keep your eyes on the lookout. Stay tuned for lots of love-themed things!
And speaking of love, we absolutely LOVED reading all of your comments from our Iconic Fabric Giveaway. This has honestly been our favourite giveaway to date, because we have very much enjoyed reading all of your comments. We will not deny keeping the giveaway link as one of our tabs and happily refreshing the page throughout the day for any new comments. It was so exciting to hear someone squeal “A new comment!” before the rest of us would giddily rush to read it so we could all swoon together. Thank you to everyone for making our hearts happy! We love…love!
The most difficult thing about this giveaway was choosing a winner. Everyone in the Design Studio had different (and multiple!) favorite answers, and so alas we decided the only fair thing would be to choose at random. How can you choose a favorite romantic moment?! They were all SO good. But only one winner could be chosen, and with the kind help of a randomizer, we have found our winner. Our Iconic Giveaway winner is….
…. Delaine!! And just for another swoon-worthy moment, here is her comment: “I saw an old black and white photo of a very elderly couple standing outside in a light snow storm. They were turned toward each other, and the gentleman had his hand cupping her cheek. She was looking up at him. They were looking straight into each others’ eyes. You could just tell that they loved each other immensely and they probably weren’t even aware of the snow at that moment. It is the most beautifully emotional photo that I have ever seen.” – Awwww!! Absolutely, breathtakingly beautiful right?! Thank you so much for sharing, Delaine.
Once again, congratulations Delaine! We will be contacting you by email, so be sure to check so that we can send along your amazing FQ bundle :) As well, thank you to everyone who participated in our Iconic Giveaway. We love you all for participating, sharing your wonderful memories, and for warming our hearts. Be sure to stay tuned for next week’s giveaway…it’s going to be another wonderful one! Until next time…
Happy Sewing!
