Craftastic Monday Link Party & Giveaway News!


Welcome my crafty friends.  It's time for another Craftastic Monday Link Up.  My craft room is a mess of fabric, patterns, project parts and the like right now...and I couldn't be happier! It feels good to be making things.  I can't wait to see what goodies you've got to show us - link 'em up below and give us a peek!

Last week I shared my DIY Exotic Sunroom Back Porch Makeover:  

I shared all my thrifty secrets for taking things from drab to fab on the cheap;)



It's time to announce the winner of the floral Fabric Bundle Giveaway:

Renee from Southern Gal Thoughts!

Congratulations Renee & enjoy that fabric.  Also a big thank you to Timeless Treasures for providing this fabric

Remember to link back to the party somewhere.

I can't feature your link if you don't share the party in some way.

I also feature these projects on Sew Can Do's Craftastic Picks Pinterest board 
AND share each of them on Twitter too for even MORE exposure!

Ready to link up your crafty creations?
 
Party rules are simple:
  • As long as it's crafty, and made by you, it's Craftastic (no links to giveaways, shops, link parties or other people's work).  Add the link to your specific post (not the main page of your blog).  Product reviews, plagiarized or sponsored posts for random items will be immediately deleted.  
  • Grab my party button & put it on your post or blog somewhere.  Party pages are fine.  If you want the chance to be featured, this is key.  The button code can be found HERE.
  • Check out some of the other fabulous links and share some crafty comment love.  We all love getting comments!!

  3. Thank you so much for featuring my daughter's dress! Yes, I really don't like those big 4 patterns. I also wish there were more patterns for the tween age.

    1. I hear you Lindsay and it's funny you mention that - I've got a post coming up this week about where to find tween/teen patterns for boys (the most neglected group when it comes to patterns). Several of them are perfect for girls too;)
