Last week Seamless turned the grand old age of one! Hurrah!
To celebrate, I’m holding a giveaway with a SURPRISE PRIZE! Oooooooooohhhhh…
Oh, alright then, I’ll give you SOME clues. The winner of the giveaway shall receive a bundle of goodies, perfect for anyone taking the Seamless Pledge. This shall include.
1. Something to refashion.
2. A vintage pattern from my collection
3. A handy something to add to your sewing toolbox
…and whatever else I can think of!
To enter, just leave a comment below and you’ll be entered into the random draw. This giveaway is open to everyone around the world, whether you’re taking the Seamless Pledge or not. If you want an extra entry, link to this blog on Twitter and mention @elenacresci with the hashtag #seamlessgiveaway or leave a comment on the Facebook page.
I’d also love to know what kind of thing you’d like to see in the surprise bundle. Is there a little something missing from your sewing box? Have you got a vintage pattern style you’ve been eyeing up?
You’ve got until midnight on 12 November to enter. Keep an eye on out for sneaky hints of what you could expect in your surprise package…


Hi, I have just started my blog Sticky-back-tastic which takes on a new creative challenge every month, from food to fashion. This month is Christmas pudding but next month I hope to make a tie and bow tie from scratch so I shall have to swot up on my sewing skills.
Great blog btw!

Ooh aren’t you one of the new CJSers? I spotted your blog name a while ago and meant to hunt it down… Love the idea! Feel free to shoot me an email if you ever need tips or anything, not that I think you’ll need it
good luck with your challenges!
Thank you!
Happy Birthday! Love your project, and have stuck to my pledge so far \o/
Hiya, Yep, I am a magger on CJS. I may need a few hints and tip from a pro so thanks for the offer! Congratulations on a year of success!
Happy birthday, I’ve been on the pledge and stuck to it up to the date I’d intended, then I went out and got some workout gear as mine was dying!
Congratulations and Happy Birthday!
Happy blogiversary!
Happy blogiversary!
Happy blogbirthday! Keep it coming
Happy blogiversary! Hmm, there are too many things I’d like to add to my sewing box, but top of the list is some new sharp silk pins!!
I sew and refashion alot of my clothes, I really enjoy your blog and maybe one of these day’s I will completely take the pledge!
Congratulations on your blogiversary. Last weekend I sewed a shirt for my son from an old tshirt of mine.
hint hint! thanks for a lovely giveaway.
My sewing box is missing one of those handy sewing gauges for measuring hems
It’s been a year already?! Wow, that time has flown by! I’ve stuck to my pledge bar one pair of shoes which I needed for work as my shoes died during the working day – I managed to replace leopard print with leopard print though!
It sounds like a fabulous bundle! I love fit and flare dresses and have to agree that pins are always soo useful to have. I love trying out different marking tools too.
Happy Blog-Birthday!
Wow – good for you!
I love wiggle dresses, shirtdresses, dresses really!
I’d love to have a pressing ham – but that’s rather bulky – pins are great, seam gauges. And I’m kinda desperate for some seam binding on of these days….
Ah, I love surprises. Aaaand it would especially wonderful because I get back to the merry UK after a 4 month absence a few weeks after this giveaway finishes. What a welcome home that would be! Congrats on one year, such amazing talent xx
Happy blogiversary! As much as I love surprises, there’s one thing that I would really love to be added is a letter by you (like these which are handwritten, smell of ink and other person’s home), it would be sooo nice! I’m keeping my fingers crossed
Congrats on your blogiversary! FYI: my iPad auto corrected blogiversary to ‘blog overstay’ – glad I noticed that before I submitted
That’s such a great idea for a giveaway! I do love a surprise! I’m not sure if my skills are up to it but I’ve been looking at 1960s single breasted coat patterns over the last couple of weeks, the lovely Peter Pan collars are what’s tempting me!
Happy 1 year! Mine’s coming up soon!
Happy bloggin’ birthday you muthablogger.
Yay giveaway! Happy bloggiversary. I’m nearly done with the vintage Vogue I won from your pattern giveaway earlier in the year. I can’t wait to show it! As for missing items that would make a good giveaway bundle element – I’m missing a sewing gauge: http://www.amazon.com/Dritz-Sewing-Gauge-6-Inch/dp/B000YZ8N46
Yaaay happy blogiversary!!!
Happy to enter the giveaway send be grateful of anything that makes up the prize
I am slowly getting back into sewing after a lengthy absence. Your blog is great fun to read. Good luck for year 2.
Happy Blogiversary β just got back to the UK after spending a year in Greece. Great to see the giveaway to enter β could do with a win to help sort out my wedding dress β itβs a black retro dress and I need to funk it up a bit. Have now started following the blog.
I love all the vintagey embroidery scissors I’ve seen around on various websites like Sublime Stitching with the handles shaped like owls or storks etc. My sewing kit is most definately missing a good thimble! Sore fingers/thumb not nice! Would come in handy for knitting too.
happy notable date reach!
