DIY Couture Give Away and The Cloak I Made in an Afternoon!

Recently, after I sold out, I was contacted By Rosie Martin at DIY Couture.
She asked if I'd like to check out their books and I said "Yes, Please! Shall we do a give away!?"
Of Course, she said yes, or the title of the post would be totally different.

I got her first three books in the mail so fast. SO fast, all the way from England. It totally blew my mind.

They are great. Well written step by step  instructions and full of excellent graphics so if you learn better from reading, or from looking at diagrams, they have you covered. It's basic sewing without patterns; just using geometry and  borrowing lines from garments you already love. It works great.  I made a lined cloak in less than a day.

Not an invisibility cloak, not a visibility cloak, 

just a nice summer wrap.

This came out so much better than the caplette I made from a pattern... In fact I may remake it, using this system. The books look great and there is a bit of surprise art in the back that gives them a fun Zine-like vibe.


So here's your chance to comment and win a set of  these 3. Make sure I can get a hold of you, (all you anonymous commentators, email address please, or a code name...something!), and a link back to this post gets you a second entry. Just be sure to mention your intention, so I can come see your sweet little blogs. I found some fantastic new reads the last time we had a give away! Not a blogger? A Facebook link will work too!

The 4th of July Weekend has me hoppin',  so I'll draw the winner next Tuesday, July 6th!
Good Luck, all you wannabe DIY Couturiers! And a Big Thanks to Rosie, for sharin' the love!
