Spring Bloggy Giveaway - Tote Bag

CONTEST NOW CLOSED _ I'LL PICK A WINNER TOMORROW

Woo Hoo it is that time of year again!

Time for another giveaway!

NOTE: PLEASE LEAVE YOUR EMAIL IN THE COMMENTS OR MAKE SURE YOUR BLOGGER PROFILE HAS THE EMAIL TURNED ON - OTHERWISE I CANNOT REACH YOU IF YOU WIN AND THAT WOULD BE SAD.

I have decided this time to give away one of my hand-made tote bags - haven't decided which one yet, I think I'll whip up a couple new ones this week, so it will be a surprise. There may be a few extra goodies in there too!

Here is one I made to give you an idea of what they look like.

Contest open to those in North America only, due to shipping costs.

To enter, just leave a comment and tell me what your favorite hobby is - currently mine is sewing.

Please make sure you leave your email in the comment so that I can contact you (this format is best: me at hotmail dot com)

Contest closes Friday April 25th at 9pm.

I will announce the winner on the weekend.

Good luck all.

woohoo! I'm leaving a comment! lol.
I LOVE tote bags and SHOES. However, my favorite hobby is...cooking! Bet you would have never guessed! I love trying new things and I really love feeding other people and watching them enjoy the food I have made for them. Now blogging about it has become another outlet for me to fulfill my need to feed! :)

mommanator said...

first time viewer here. Love the tote- I have tried making them, but there is something I am missing from my tries! Maybe the color in the fabrics??
Right now am filet crocheting. New thing for me although a crocheter for awhile. Would use the tote for the crochet materials.
If truth be known I think my hobby is my family and grandchildren! does that sound stupid? Don't have much time for sitting and crocheting or much else!

My favourite hobby is knitting. I thought about saying it was reading, but in my case that's more of a lifestyle. (Knitting is well on its way to that status too. Perhaps I'm just obsessive about my hobbies?)

Let's see-- my favorite hobby right now is kind of tied between three things- sewing, baking, and gardening. Writing comes in there pretty close, but with working on a computer all day, I don't quite enjoy it like I use to.I can't decide which I love most, though!

Pretty! Right now my favorite hobby is sewing too. Well, the last two days it's been entering all these bloggy giveaways and discovering new bloggers. I just pulled my sewing machine out a few weeks ago and have made curtains for the living room, a Cars blanket for my daughter from remnants I got at JoAnns, and a sling for my son. I think the fabric shopping is my favorite part. I've got at least 100 yards in a giant bin. I buy way more than I sew... I'll get to that part someday!

This looks like it would be a great addition to my BYOB collection for shopping. Would it fold up and fit inside my purse? All the others are stiff canvas, and I usually forget to take them in with me and end up having to go back out to the car... So, anyway, please add my name to your drawing. I'd love to win one. And if I don't win it, and you make a bag out of that lovely floral fabric you showed in the next post, maybe I could buy one!

My granddaughter is my inspiration..should be fun! I am a firm believer in totes for everything. Yours is lovely. You can't have too many! Like you, my sister writes manuals for logistics. I'm with you...who reads that stuff?(smile). Enjoyed my visit.

I think my favorite hobby currently is collecting scrapbook supplies and organizing them. I never get tired of it. I was a little worried for a while, because it didn't seem to have a point, but really. Does it matter if it makes me happy??

I do do some scrapping as well, but I have much more fun just playing with my supplies. Much less pressure, less stressful.

I used to love to bake and sew, but I don't have the patience right now to sew. Maybe when the house quiets down after the kidlets move out. Which could be a while. Same story for reading. I used to read voraciously, but it gets discouraging if you are constantly interrupted with, "Mom! Can you come here?" Even if you say no, it still busts up your concentration. But I love Nora Roberts too!

But I do love your bags! Yes, I think you should sell them on Etsy, but I don't know prices. Check out a bunch of other ones that sell bags.

I really really love the green one, but that's because green is my absolute favorite color! If you pick me, pick whichever one you want to give, because I avoid making any decisions I don't have to. My brain runs out of the ability to choose after a while. Thanks for the chance to win!
