4x7 Sewing Challenge - Complete!

And that's a wrap! A whole month of sewing daily for ourselves is under our belts. I've really enjoyed seeing the variety of projects you've all worked on, from quilts to baskets to EPP to setting up a new sewing space! Thank you to all of you who joined me for the 4x7 Sewing Challenge this year.

I was on quite a roll the first half of the month, but slowed down toward the end. (Brief update from last week's post: that "epic teether" of mine rolled right from cutting some new canines into an ear infection... and then he destroyed my laptop... if you've wondered why my comments have lagged this past week, it was the lack of half the alphabet and a space bar to reply to you with!) I did get my pj pants done, and I've made a lot of progress on my pattern. But when the latter was put on hold until my new laptop arrived this weekend, I turned my attention to the clutter in my studio, cleaning and rearranging furniture so now I have a nice tidy space to get back to creating in : )

Was the challenge as successful as you had planned? Did you meet your goals? Hopefully you've formed a great habit by sewing every day this month, and have a lot of completed work to show for it!

Link up your last week of progress and you'll be entered to win the final prize of the challenge: a $25 gift certificate to Hawthorne Threads! It's my most favorite online fabric shop thanks to its great selection, volume discounts, and color search tool. I'm excited that one of you will be able to choose new fabric from them for your upcoming sewing projects!

And the winner of the 4x7 Sewing Challenge week 3 linkup is... #3! Congratulations, Elizabeth from Elizabeth K Ray Quilts! She'll receive two patterns from Yvonne at Quilting Jet Girl, "Red Herring" and "Triangle Transparency" Enjoy!

Link closes at 11:55 pm EST on Friday, March 4th. Winner will be announced on the blog on Sunday, March 6th.
