Today is a momentous day. It’s my first giveaway. {blush}
Erin from Slipcover Your Life recently opened a new etsy shop, with the most lovely selection of modern cross stictch designs, and she offered to do a giveaway for all you lovely people. You’re so lucky.


The winner will either get to choose between these two finished pieces or a kit so you can sew your own. (I loved doing cross stitch when I was young.)
Here’s what you need to do:
1. Visit Erin’s shop and take a look around. Let me know what you like. Your comment gets you one entry.
2. Twitter about this giveaway, then leave a comment with the link to your tweet. That gets you another entry.
3. Blog about this giveaway, then leave a comment with the link to your post. That gets you another entry.
This giveaway will end next Tuesday, April 6 at precisely 11:59 PM Pacific Time (I do live in California). The winner will be chosen via Random.org and announced the following day. Good luck!











I’m not sure I can pass up this Queen E, even though a Keep Calm is a classic. This totally reminds me of the time my friend and I spent time in the Hobby Lobby cross stitch section laughing about all the designs of the Pope. Irreverent. That’s my middle name.
And how exciting that you are giving things away now!
Woo hoo – your first giveaway, how exciting!! I have to say I love her too long daschund – how adorable is that?? I’m loving the queen too – very cool!!
I haven’t done cross-stitch since I was young…I think it would be so fun to try it again…I could use the relaxation that it would bring
What a great giveaway! Her shop is so wonderful, I had trouble picking a favorite but I really like the owl ones. Or else I think it would be really cute to buy the ‘Keep Calm and Carry On’ one and put it next to the ‘Now Panic and Freak Out’ one.
Erin’s shop is awesome! I really love the “Owl and Owlet” slipcover. This really makes me want to take up cross stitching again!
Oh Brandi! YES! I’ve been searching Etsy for cross stitching kits and haven’t come across anything that I like. These are awesome – I totally want!!!!!
I am now obsessed with everything in the shop but I love this one the best and might buy it if I don’t win. http://www.etsy.com/view_listing.php?listing_id=43721493

I tweeted about it – of course!!
Not sure if I’m doing this right so I’m going to include both links.

so cute! I love the thistle and the deer head!
I have to say I love her little shop! and I’m in love with the Queen Elizabeth cross stitch.
She is added as one of my favorites. I can’t wait to see what she comes up with next!

I’d love a kit to do my own…but they won’t be half as good as Erin’s!! I thought the owl one was my fav, but then I just saw the polaroid one – so cute!

This is really great. So happy for Erin! Never been into cross stitch but have to admit that my interest is piqued.
The ‘Too Long Daschund’ is too cute!
I was hesitant about entering since I’m hosting the SYLS giveaway on Friday but since I won’t enter my own I figured it was acceptable to enter yours! Erin is a rock star and I love all of her gorgeous pieces. Please head to raenovate on Friday and enter yourself!
I’m so proud of Erin & excited for her fabulous shop!!! I LOVE the Owl & Owlet! SO so sweet! Crossing my fingers! xo
Ciao!
I’m a big fan of Erin’s creations!
It’s really hard to pick a favorite, but if I have to choose i say the thistle: I love the unusual color combination with the grey aida cloth!
Thanks for the geneorus giveaway and crossing fingers!
