Pattern Pyramid Giveaway!

 Giveaway now closed!

I was one of the very lucky winners of the first round of the Pattern Pyramid giveaway hosted my the lovely Karen of Did you make that? 
My parcel!
THE RULES
  • Anyone, anywhere can enter the giveaway by posting a comment below by midnight GMT Wednesday 18 July BUT you must have an active blog. (Reasons to become obvious.)
  • I will randomly select one winner.
  • I will post on a selection of approximately 5-6 patterns and/or Burda magazines to the winner, along with the Pattern Pyramid hand woven labels to be sewn into anything made from one of these patterns.
  • The winner will pick one pattern to keep for themselves, then host their own giveaway. They will randomly select a winner, post the remaining patterns to that Person C. Person C will pick a pattern for themselves, host their own giveaway and post the remaining patterns to the winner, Person D. Person D will…
THE SMALL PRINT
  • The patterns have not been checked so pieces may be missing, it is pot luck!
  • If you’re a winner, I would love it if you could make a small contribution to The Brooke. This is a charity close to the heart of Catherine, who so generously provided these patterns.
 So go ahead, enter the giveaway and you get to choose your pattern from the lovely goodies provided.  Below is a little sneak peek of what will be arriving in your package.


Finally, this is the pattern I chose.  I cannot actually believe my package contained this pattern, as it was the one I was lusting over on Karen's original sneak peek post and I just cannot wait to make it up!  (Apologies to anyone else who was hoping to receive this one!)
How pretty!!

    Oh, wow, I'm really pleased to see that pattern find a loving home. I couldn't pull it off but I just know you'll turn this into a beautiful dress. Good luck with the rest of the giveaway! What a tantalizing sneak peak of the other patterns, also. I'm dying to see someone do something marvellous with those dungarees!

      Thank you! The dungarees are very '80's but I am sure someone could really remake them well.

    Please count me in too! I love the idea of patterns spreading around the world and new blog connections. My blog has been on a break for a few weeks, due to IT issues and real life (over)committments, but this is just what I need to get me back into the blogging frame of mind. Off to browse your blog now.
