  1. My favorite thing about sewing is knowing that I'm going to be the only one wearing my unique garment! There's nothing worse than wearing a fabulous garment, only to have a style twin wearing the exact same thing. :)

  2. My favorite thing about sewing is that I can make something just the way I want it. I sew more for my home than I do clothing and making throw pillows, curtains, slip-covers & quilts is more economical than purchasing them.

    The clothing I do make is usually for my teenage daughter and I like that she has me alter necklines, straps, etc...

    I'm drawn to this Marc Jacobs fabric-it sort of reminds me of birch trees. Thanks for a terrific giveaway!

  5. Wow that fabric is cute! I didn't really see it's potential until I saw it made up in the trench, and now I WANT! Haha. My favorite thing about sewing is that I get to wear exactly what I want - no looking through the stores for the perfect dress!

  6. My favorite thing about sewing is that my dresses and garments fit my curves and actually flatter them! It's also relaxing for me :)

  10. My favorite thing about sewing as a hobby is that I have something to show for it at the end. I'm not just throwing my money away. I can show that I can make something useful.

  11. My favorite thing about sewing is that my mother taught me how to do it. She is gone now, but I feel like she is right there when I sew. I'm following you on twitter.)

  13. ooh ooh!
    Too easy... my favourite thing about sewing is seeing something materialise from flat fabric into a 3d shape. Design lines and unusual forms intrigue me. That I get to gad about in something made specially for me, in the colours I like and the fabrics I love is a wonderful by product of this this we call sewing!

  14. ZOMG I saw that fabric and thought PERFECT for Sewaholic Robson... then the second image was a coat! freaky!
    I follow your blog and on twitter.
    My favourite thing about sewing: CREATIVITY. The ability to conjure images from my head into my wardrobe via my precious sewing machine :-)

  15. That is beautiful fabric, but I have a soft spot for Marc Jacobs fabric as a rule anyway :)
    My favorite thing about sewing is being able to create garments that I cannot find in the shops that reflect my personal style as opposed to what is "fashionable".

  16. Hi Erika!

    I found your blog in good time :)
    I've just moved (back) to Central New Jersey this February after 4-odd years in Europe. It's nice to be back, and I was trawling the 'net for a friendly neighbour.

    The favorite thing about sewing is simply making things according to my taste and size... We all don't come from the same cookie cutter! Also, I just love to make things with my hands!

    Followed you on twitter and will do that on Instagram... Not just for this great giveaway, but because I think you're too cool for school. Can't wait to hear more!

    Sincerely,
    Juanita

  17. My favourite thing about sewing. Seeing some flat fabric turning into a chic dress that looks far better than the dresses sold in the shops. And wearing it proudly because you know it is well made and cater for your own body.

  18. I love that I can make clothes that fit, are just what I'm looking for, and are better quality than the RTW I can afford.

  19. My favourite part about sewing is the time that I spend by myself doing something just because I like it!!
