Congratulations!

If you like to sew or make crafts, this is the site for you.From the site: “YouCanMakeThis.com was created with the goal of serving the curious, “do-it-yourselfer” by providing high quality, easy-to-understand guides. We do this by partnering with designer-authors who share their expertise in a variety of eBooks. To eliminate the hassle of shipping, all of our guides are in convenient eBook format. These easy-to-use electronic files are available to download immediately after purchase! No waiting!

A while ago, I was searching the internet for a pattern to make a diaper bag tote for my baby boutique. Unfortunately, I couldn’t find the exact one I was looking for. So, imagine my surprise when YouCanMakeThis.com contacted me to sponsor a review/giveaway and when I went to check out the site, I found the pattern I was looking for! I guess it was just meant to be.

Once I chose my project, I was immediately emailed the download link. It was so easy to access it! And I loved the step-by-step instructions and accompanying photos. They were clear and to the point to ensure I wouldn’t get lost along the way.

They have so many craft projects to choose from like sewing, embroidery, cooking, knitting, quilting, scrapbooking, woodworking, jewelry making, and many others. These eBooks are written by Moms just like you who want to share their expertise in a way that even the most novice crafter can understand. What a cool concept!

From now until June 25th, you will receive 15% off your entire purchase (one-time offer per person). Just enter the code “ISLAND15″ during check-out.

    The name of that web site surely means they have not had to teach the likes of ME to make something with my own two hands, but if they think they’re up to the challenge I’d love to try the Baby-Safe Bunny Rabbit Pattern.

    Wow! I’m bookmarking that site! Even if I won this giveaway, I’d still go back for more.

    If I won, I’d definitely pick one of the jewelry making books. I’ve been making bead jewelry for a while but I’ve kind of gotten burned out on it because I only know a few techniques. I’d love to learn something different, maybe expand my Etsy shop which currently only has like 5 bracelets on it. :(

    So there’s my comment entry…

    And I’m also subscribed to your feed AND your badge is on my blog’s sidebar.

    I would love to learn how to make the Trendy Tote Bag. I have really been noticing these boutique-style bags that I see women carrying, but they are out of our budget. Think I could make one of them if I had a good, simple pattern. Thanks for the contest and giving me the chance to win!
