There is lots going on....

The past week has flown by.  I hope that everyone who received gifts with their orders liked them.

Knit fabric has arrived at The Pattern Loft:

This fabric is from Free Spirit and is 96% cotton with 4% lycra.  The fabric feels very nice.  The prints are in very limited quantities. They can be found in "What's New" for now.  Later, they can be found in the Fabric section under Free Spirit.

There are a couple of design contests that all creative people should know about.  The first contest is the Vintage Modern Design Challenge.  It is sponsored by Indgyo Junction, Singer, and Coats & Clark.  Also, it is hosted by BurdaStyle.  The second contest is the Your Style to My Style Contest.  It is sponsored by Islander Sewing Systems, Brother, Fiskars, and Creative Keepsakes.

Now through the end of the month, I will be giving away items because we are still celebrating.  Leave a comment and I will use a random generator to determine the winner. This is open to mailing addresses within the United States only.  The first item is tags:

Aren't these sweet?  Comments through January 23, 2012 will be accepted.  Drawing will be Monday, January 24, 2012.  Make sure I can contact you.

Happy Sewing!
