Win It Wednesday Special...

Wednesday, 23 July 2008 15:12 by sara

The apron is on its way. I've deviated from the original Ben Franklin version, and I'm working on adapting a Martha version. It's going to be worth the wait, I promise. 

But for now, familial obligations have called me away from sewing for the rest of the week.  Instead, for this week's Win-It Wednesday, I give you:

Your very own, new (okay, I took the wrapper off because I had to see the inside!), never used Quilt-It Kit by Denyse Schmidt.

I know we have a lot of quilting readers, because I read your blogs, but this would be great for anyone who wants to experiment with small projects or even patchwork. It's awesome.

Fifteen different projects, and it could be yours! Leave a comment on this post by next Wednesday, and you'll be entered into a random drawing to win-it!

I wanted to tell you how much I like your site! I came across it one day while searching the net and have been reading it since. I love your list of favorite sites you just posted and had to laugh because I also bought a bunch of fabric to make my little ones summer clothes and have yet to find time to do it! Thanks for sharing!

I like Denyse Schmidt's designs, but I've never splurged on such an item. Lovely and inspiring.

I made one wee and simple doll quilt, but it didn't rid me of my fear of patchwork. It just left me in awe of those wonderful quilts you see on blogs everywhere.

Hey - nice blog, just looking around some blogs, seems a pretty nice platform you are using. I'm currently using Wordpress for a few of my sites but looking to change one of them over to a platform similar to yours as a trial run. Anything in particular you would recommend about it?

The beauty of these blogging engines and CMS platforms is the lack of limitations and ease of manipulation that allows developers to implement rich content and 'skin' the site in such a way that with very little effort one would never notice what it is making the site tick all without limiting content and effectiveness.

I personally have embraced the new technologies and the CMS platforms, I think the new tools only make the web designs better. I am glad that new technologies are coming out in web design that make things easier, improved, and better looking for design.

Great post! I am just starting out in community management/marketing media and trying to learn how to do it well - resources like this article are incredibly helpful. As our company is based in the US, it?s all a bit new to us. The example above is something that I worry about as well, how to show your own genuine enthusiasm and share the fact that your product is useful in that case.
