That's what I did last month with the Sew, Mama, Sew May giveaway day. I saw that Sabine at Farbenmix was giving way enough ribbons and trims to fill a bathtub. I decided this was certainly one worth entering... and I won the grand prize!!! Before you get too jealous, I've got a plan to distribute the wealth!
And what sort of wealth might I share?! You see there were some ribbons...

Ribbons with rockets... Ribbons with robots... and well some more totally awesome ribbons.

Not just a small little taste of these ribbons, but 2 meters of each! If you're searching for these on the Farbenmix shop, look under Webbänder. This next batch looks perfect for trim tags!

Did I mention that it was a bucketload of ribbons? I think it's the entire range.

But if that wasn't already enough, Sabine actually added more prizes to the box. Including a mega-clever sewing notepad to help track our projects. There were keychains, diamante patterns and notecards.

and some packing tape which is a must because as I mentioned, I am certainly going to share these gems out!

Then to my surprise, the package even had meters of poplin fabric.

because it would take me a lifetime to use up all these gems, I've decided that I'll be having six weeks of Farbenmix giveaways to share with you, my blog readers. Each Monday, I'll post a giveaway package and let you know how you can win. Sometimes it will be a quick easy "leave a comment", other times it might be a bit of scavenger hunt! Too fun!
Wondering what we can make this all of this greatstuff, pop over to the Farbenmix blog for inspiration. Leave a nice comment and say hi to Sabine while you are there!
So check back on Monday for your first chance to win!
Amy, you are very generous to share the wealth. I'm not sure that I could do it. You will definitely earn some good karma.
ReplyDeleteOh man that is too much ribbon coolness! And I totally agree with you on giveaway karma, For instance, I don't enter any FMF giveaways because I already have my share of that pie and someone else really needs it!
ReplyDeleteI'm the same on giveaway karma, but I would have entered this one if I had seen it. Fantastic Amy!
ReplyDeleteI completely agree... I don't enter every contest, just the good ones!
ReplyDeleteHoly crap that's a lot of ribbon. Your karma plan seems to work nicely. I'll have to remember that one!
ReplyDeleteHow lovely you are to share your joy! I'll be waiting with good Karma for those Rocket ones.
ReplyDeleteWow you are sooo generous!! I will be looking out for it as we cant get it here!! I have dog collars to make with beautiful ribbon like that!!
ReplyDeleteI'm gonna be waiting and watching!
I'm a Farb fan too and am one of the other 1700 people who entered.
ReplyDeleteI was really pleased to see that it was a fellow Aussie (and one whose blog I read) that won, and I think you are very generous to share this gorgeous loot.
Can't wait til Monday.
I'm another giveaway-karma subscriber (and I'd really like the good karma to roll in my favour come Monday!!!!) That is quite the haul - and I am so impressed with your generosity to give some away...I'd be a little tempted to hoard it all!
ReplyDeleteYou are great!
ReplyDeleteNice greetings from Germany
Sabine
