BONUS! Giveaway Contribution from Me!

I hope each and every one of you know just how thankful I am to have you a part of Hopeful Threads! This is a community of talented and caring seamstresses that I am proud and very happy to be a part of!

To show my gratitude for your enthusiasm and support this month I have put together a "Boy Bundle" from my stash as a bonus prize for our giveaway at the end of the month.
 The bundle includes 5 Fat Quarters, some of my favorite boyish sewing labels and buttons!

How to win???

Simple.

Participate in this month's sewing project here at Hopeful Threads. We're sewing shorts to be donated through the organization Children In Families.

Sew your shorts for donation. Take a picture and add it (or have me add it) to our Shorts Sewing Flickr Album. Then, email me for shipping address. Mail your shorts to me!

They'll all be traveling to Cambodia with a friend of mine that makes regular trips.

At the end of the month, Tuesday, July 31st, I'll announce the GRAND TOTAL of shorts contributed for our monthly project (we were aiming for at least 100 pairs and have passed that already!) and select winners for all of the sponsored prizes from the entries in our Shorts Sewing Flickr Album!  International seamstresses welcome! Each pair of shorts sewn for donation will be counted as an entry. An entry # is added below the picture as a comment by me once the photo is added to our album. Winners will be randomly selected from all eligible entries, announced here and under their photo July 31st, 2012. Winners are asked to respond within 48 hours of announcement, claiming their prize and providing shipping information if applicable. One prize per winner. *Please note, shorts do not have to be received by me by July 31st, but I do ask that you ship them no later than August 5th.*

If you're sewing along, you can still download the Mud Puddle Shorts pattern at Fishsticks Designs for FREE until the end of the month too!

There is still PLENTY of time to sew and donate a pair of shorts!

Check out our album and all the AMAZING shorts that have already been made! There are OVER 100 pairs! Thank you all so much for making this a reality!

I love sewing with you!

 Be sure and check out the other prizes already posted from Figgy's, Muddy Max Designs & Fishsticks Designs too! And there is still something special to add from Fat Quarter Shop too! :)

Can't wait to see the GRAND TOTAL of shorts for little boys we end up with at the end of the month! SEW EXCITING!
