Yes it's that time again, the SewMamaSew giveaway day! Not only can you be in to win great prizes but it is a great way to find new and inspiring blogs. If you are a new visitor here, welcome!
For my giveaway this time around I have a pretty little charm pack of "Ruby" , the latest fabric collection by Bonnie and Camille for Moda. This collection is oh so gorgeous and I really need to get some myself now that I have seen it in person to touch and see the lovely colour palette they have used.
Along with the handmade gift making that is going on in my sewing attic lately I have whipped up a sweet little birdie pincushion and a matching needlebook. The Birdie pincushion was made using this free tutorial here and is really so easy and satisfying to make. I think I will be making more of these in the near future. The needle book cover is made up of tiny little 1" squares of shabby chic fabrics with some coordinating wool felt pages inside taken from my precious stash of Heather Bailey felts.
In order to be in to win this wee collection of pretty sewing supplies just leave me a comment sharing one or more of your handmade gifts for this holiday season or perhaps a link to your favourite tutorial.
This giveaway will be left open till 16th December when a winner will be drawn randomly.
Overseas comments are most welcome and also please make sure I can contact you via email :-)

I havent even started my sewing for this holiday season! Finals end friday and then it will begin. First on the list is a makeup case for my friend.
I have been engaged in making little pincushions too as a handstitching project to do at my DH bedside while he was in hospital just recently. In fact the idea popped into mind when I was walking throught the hospital lobby and some ladies held a stall and there was a dear little pincushion in watercolour squares on the table for the princely sum of $2. Handmade! I bought it and it inspired me to make some of my own..now I have seen yours with some embroidery embellishment..I am encouraged to take it a little further still. I found some nice buttons for the centre and the possiblities are really endless..but I think your bird and book are just lovely.

Such a cute birdie!!! I have/am making phone pouches for friends this year, pattern by Anni Downs.
thanks for the chance in the giveaway...love fuby fabric :)
That little pincushion is gorgeous! This year I'm giving my little niece a little purse made from a cute Japanese linen with frog faces printed on it. Her mum saw my daughter's so I had a request for it.
I will be gifting scarves this year.
I just love the birdie. I've been making men's wallets. http://averagequilter.blogspot.com/2011/05/how-to-make-wallet.html
I'm working on a quilt for a good friend, I'm not sure if it will be done in time. Thanks.
That little bird just makes me so happy when I look at it - these are now on my list to make!
What a sweet pincushion! It's really adorable. This year I'm giving out homemade doggie biscuits for my four-legged friends and homemade biscotti to my two-leggers.
I'm sewing my sister a pillow for christmas!
I sewed Christmas stockings for my daughter (her first Christmas) and my step-son. They were a fun little project. I'm also hoping to finish a large lap quilt for my sister in time for Christmas... we'll see!
I made similar pincushions and needlecases for my sewing buddies this year. My pincushions were owls but your little bird is delightful
I made three of these library book bags for gifts for my daughter and her friends. Super easy and looks great. http://sewmamasew.com/blog2/2011/06/summer-sewing-summer-reading-library-book-bag-by-mo-bedell/ Thanks for the generous give away.
I've knitted a stack of mug cozies, and a pair of fingerless mittens, and sewed a stuff owl. I'm still working on the knitted toddler cardigan and sewing a cloak for my husband.

That little bird pin cushion is really lovely! :)
This Christmas, I made play mats (farm, jungle and ocean) for my niece and her cousins. I also made a travel stationary and pen holder for my other niece. Handmade gifts are so much fun!
That little bird is so sweet! I haven't made anything more interesting than a coaster that I'll give to my son once I've washed it.
Wow the little bird is so sweet! Not to mention your great fabric choice! I really didn't get much done this year, that darn job of mine keeps getting in my way! I made some pj pants for DH. Thanks for the chance
Oh I just love your little bird! Thanks for linking up to the tutorial. That would be so much fun to embroider on as well.
This year my big making-item is a quilt for my sister. I started it in June because the fabric just suited her so. Then she told me she wished minky blankets came in grownup sizes. So I'm backing it with minky. I really hope it works okay - I'm a little nervous. I don't think I'll really quilt it. Maybe tie it or maybe just a little quilting to keep it from shifting around too much.
What a delicious giveaway! This year I've been making many lined drawstring bags. Here's one with a link to the very popular tutorial I used ... http://www.flickr.com/photos/50636482@N00/6428613221/in/photostream/

A pillow for my aunt
My daughter and I are trying to make felt ornament balls for presents!
I live to make fabric selvage postcards -- I have a tutorial on my blog. They work great with Christmas selvages, too! Thanks for the chance!
I made both my daughters a dolly outfiitters doll carrier. It's a back pack with a doll carrier built in. I will fill each with American girl clothes that I have made. BTW! I love that pincushion you made. So cute!
Your birdie is adorable and would look great next the apple I won from one of your giveaways a couple of years ago :).... I have made 4 quilts so far, three that have been shipped off as gifts and have 3 still in progress...2 to be given as gifts... and the remailing 2, I have been making a couple seasonal quilts to keep as well... Merry Chistmas!
