To keep the fun going...a second giveaway!!!
The last Sew Mama Sew giveaway week was about the same time I started this blog. I was new to the whole blogging thing, as I still am but this time I want to join in the fun by having my first giveaway!
Who doesn't need a new bag for summer? This colorful and fun handbag was made using Noodlehead's 241 pattern.
It measures 15" W x 10" H and has pockets galore! There are 2 zippered pockets on the outside, that hold much more than you think possible, and two generously sized slip pockets on the exterior that easily fit in a large pair of sunglasses and cell phone.
The interior also has a smaller slip pocket to further keep you organized. The strap is the perfect length to toss over your shoulder or wear cross body if you prefer.
This giveaway is open to anyone who resides on earth and all you have to do is leave me a comment telling me about your favorite summer activity. I will announce the winner the following Saturday May 11th via email. Please make sure to leave your email address, if you don't have a Google account so I can reach you!
If you follow me, you get an extra entry...just leave another comment letting me know that you are a follower For another chance to win like my Facebook page and leave an additional comment letting me know.
That's 3 chances to win!!!

I love this bag! Just my colors :) One of my favorite summer activities is knitting by the fire while camping while the kids run around barefoot. Two more months!
You made the perfect bag to take along a good book, sunglasses and water bottle to the zoo. My favorite thing to do is to watch the little kids watch the animals.
We love to attend the free concerts in the park on summer evenings after a long day at the spring fed pool. Can't wait for school to be out!
Oh, good - I'm an earthling, so I've got a chance to win this pretty bag! In the summertime I love to have picnics or dinners on the back deck. My boys are usually swimming in the pool with friends, and it makes me feel like a kid again, on summer vacation.

My favorite summer activity is to chill on the beach, but since there is no beach near me, I like to hula hoop in the park!

Anything to do with water. Be it the pool. A splash pad. A little sprinkler. As long as it keeps me cool during the 3-digit Texas summery days, I'm ALL about it!
I love going to the beach. We've done it almost every summer since I got married. This year due to coming baby and husband's MBA classes...no beach. Sigh...maybe the lake?
My favorite summer activity is wearing flip flops everywhere. Sounds simple....but I love it!
I love, love, love the beach ... especially if there are waves to bob in.
We usually go to the beach but what I really like is to seat outside with a book :)

"Anywhere on Earth" - hahaha. Love your sense of humour :)
Well, we are crawling into winter on this end, but I discovered how much I loved walking around the forests here in Cape Town. We have two young border collies and they need out time every day for at least an hour. With this I learnt how therapeutic it is to just enjoy nature and watching them get all giddy with all the scents and other dogs = bliss.
Thank you for an amazing giveaway. I am tentatively eyeing the 241 pattern to try out. It's scares me a little as I am still in the normal tote phase. This one is amazing and whoever the winner is will be a lucky fish indeed.
Thank you for a great giveaway and the chance to win.
