2. A vintage pattern from my collection

3. A handy something to add to your sewing toolbox

…and whatever else I can think of!

    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!

    Congratulations on your blogiversary. Last weekend I sewed a shirt for my son from an old tshirt of mine.
    My sewing box is missing one of those handy sewing gauges for measuring hems :-) hint hint! thanks for a lovely giveaway.

    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 Blogiversary – just got back to the UK after spending a year in Greece. Great to see the giveaway to enter – could do with a win to help sort out my wedding dress – it’s 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.
