Have you heard about the Traveling Stash boxes? They're such a fun idea. A large priority mail flat rate box has been filled with sewing goodies, a drawing is held on a blog for a winner, and when the winner gets the box, you can take anything out of the box (as much as you like!) to keep for your stash. The only catch is you have to replace it with items from your stash of equal value and hold a give away on your blog to mail it to the next lucky winner.
I won the box that Susan had last, and now I'm going to pass it on to one of my lucky readers! To enter, just leave a comment telling me what your dream traveling stash box would have in it. Please make sure I have a way to contact you if you win! I will choose a winner on Sunday, August 11, around 9 pm Central time using a random number generator. Please be aware that if you win, you will be responsible for mailing this box to the next person via Priority mail flat rate for a large box (~$15). Sorry, but this is for US addresses only at this time!
In order not to spoil the surprise when the lucky winner's box arrives, I'll just post a couple pictures of what I put into the box and what I took out. There's a lot more than what is in my pictures here, trust me! It's also a mixed variety of several different tastes and items including fabric, notions, buttons, magazines, and other fun stuff.
Here's most of what I'm adding! Lots of QuiltCon swag there. |
Here's what I'm keeping for myself! |
Also, here's a WIP to keep you satisfied this week :) I'm working on my paper pieced fussy cut blocks for my friend Amanda's swap. Here are the couple I have finished along with the centers I've picked for the rest of them. I'm sure glad I have a stash of kawaii fabric from Bunny's Designs!
I'm linking up to Show and Tell Tuesday, Thursday Threads, Fabric Tuesday, We Did it Wednesday, Giveaway Directory Thursday.

thanks for posting Emily -- please include me in the drawing.
Oh this is such a neat idea!! My stash is SO SMALL right now, I'm almost embarrassed. This would be a godsend if it came my way, haha!
Loving your fussy square blocks :)
