Sew Mama Sew is hosting another Giveaway Day! There are hundreds of blogs participating. I am one of them so, WELCOME!
I am giving away a hand-spun skein of art yarn made from all kinds of fibers, mostly wool. This is one of my test skeins to see if I really was allergic to wool. The answer is yes which means I can't use it but maybe you can make something out of it in your crafting adventures. There is about 83 yards.
In addition to the yarn I am including two of my project notebooks. Both books have the Turkish spindle on the covers and are hand sewn with baker's twine. I am also including a notions bag/cosmetic bag in the whole deal. I used this pattern to make it.
How to enter: Just go to my etsy shop, take a look around, come back here and let me know what you like, don't like or leave any constructive feedback. That is it! One entry per person. This giveaway is open internationally too. Please leave your email in your comment or have your email turned on in your blogger profile. All entries must be in by 11:59pm (EST) of the 25th. The winner will be selected by a random number generator and announced on May 26th.

I absolutely love your yarns. (I favorited one on Etsy)
My only comment about your store would be if you end up with any more things in it to have a category function to one side. So if I was just looking for yarn I could just click the yarn section rather than scrolling through all of the stuff.
Thanks for such a neat giveaway!
i love the spring notebooks. too cute! :)
I'm loving the Bumble Bee Hand Spun Alpaca & Silk Yarn - those greens are gorgeous!

your shop looks really nice! i like the yarn and the handsewn notebooks. the notebooks are small enough that they'd be great for keeping in a project bag to make notes on whatever i'm knitting.
alpaca and silk yarn sounds wonderful. I think you should make what you want. it's etsy. the whole point is it is fun! I think your stuff is really nice.
I like this hand spun yarn:

Yay! Art yarn! Ilove your handmade books. I have a book on how to make books, but I haven't gotten into it yet. I think it may be something I only get in to intellectually and not physically.
I thought the spring notebooks are super cute.
Wow, how generous of you. I am a constant list maker and these notebooks would be perfect. Thank you for the chance to win.
Wow, that is a beautiful range of vibrant and bright colors with your notebooks. Nice! I'll have to order some if I don't win ^^
Thank you for the chance to win!

Beautiful notebook and bag...and yarn for that matter! All of your books are so beautiful, I love them.
The bumble bee handspun yarn. Beautiful. What a generous giveaway.
I love love love the notebooks!
I love your yarn "Sunshine on a Cloudy Day" - it's beautiful! My only contructive critism is that the last "a" in Maya is hard to see on your banner.
Thanks for the chance to win such lovely goodies!

Lovely! Thanks for the chance.
The sheep coptic stitch journals are fab.

Wow, love the yarn & the grey notebooks. I agree that categories could be nice on the side. Thanks for the giveaway
I love all your little notebooks!
Trendymeg@msn.com
You make really beautiful items. I would suggest using more colorful fabric or paint to make your items POP and add more variety to your shop :D
I like the Oriental - Coptic Stitch Journal.
I really like the styles you have available in your etsy shop. The colors are bold but not wild and 'in your face'.
Only critique I can think of is maybe build up a little more inventory, but that tends to come with time from what I have heard.
Thank you for the chance to enter your giveaway.
I like the Spring Notebooks - 3 pack:) thanks for the chance to win:)
I love little notebooks and your project notebooks look wonderful.
I like everything you have in your store. The only constructive thing I can come up with is a different banner that shows more of what your shop is about. But that's minor and is perfectly fine the way it is, too. Thanks for the chance to win!

I love your books, and I wish you had more cards for sale. I go through birthday cards like crazy.
urchiken at gmail dot com
I love love love your project books! Actually, everything in your shop is great! It takes a while to build traffic for etsy, so keep at it! I read a top seller say once that they tried to list or relist every day. I don't have time for that, but I do my best to be very active.
Love the Time 2 Accordion Book - Gray.
Thanks!

I love your yarns! Both of those in your shop are gorgeous. :) epeanut79 at comcast dot net
I haven't seen a handmade accordion book before!!

I'd say the categories thing is a good suggestion. I like your header... and, in case I don't win, you can check your email and see I like your stuff too :) your notebooks look like my antique (but in-use) spinning wheel!
Nice shop. Your pictures and descriptions are great. That yarn is very lovely!
mindfulhome at gmail dot com

very lovely! happy to have found your blog!
i love the notebooks! all of them!

Lovely shop. I like your 3pack of spring notebooks.
Constructive criticism? The last "a" in your banner is hard to read since it's background is darker...maybe try a different color font, or making it just a bit smaller so it doesn't end on that dark spot?
I really like the project notebook you have in your shop, it's really pretty!
i like the Sunshine on a Cloudy Day Hand Spun Yarn
kscratch82 at gmail dot com

Like the yarn, would feature all your best sellers first though
I love the notebooks!!
delainaj36(at)gmail(dot)com
Your shop looks really nice! Great pictures!!
My suggestion would be clarify shipping costs, unless it's mentioned somewhere and I missed it. Some items had $0 shipping, some had slightly higher.... Consistently offering free shipping, or else charging, would be awesome :)
My favorite things in your shop are the flower journals. I also just love the yarn, it looks like it would knit up sooo nicely.
I think that your yarn is great! I think it would be nice to have the notion bags also.
I love the handspun yarn and the music not accordian books.
I really like your shop. Your notebooks are really cute.

Wow, this is a very generous giveaway! I think your Etsy store looks great. You've got really nice photos, which goes a long long way towards making the store look good, and you're carrying really nice items. The yarn is gorgeous, and I'm particularly fond of the project books. Thanks for taking part in Giveaway Day and for offering such a great giveaway!
I like it all! The yarn is beautiful, and the notebooks are very clever. I like the simplicity of them and their designs.
Thank you for the opportunity to win such a cool prize, and I'm sorry you are allergic to wool. :-(
i like the antiqued damask accordian
thanks for the giveaway
radiyas(at)gmail(dot)com
your shop is lovely, and your prices are awesome... i'm ordering something right now. The little notebooks, while fabulous might not be useful to very many people, but, as a stationary lover, i'd buy them as cards! could you make just the outside and sell it as a card? the print on it is lovely, esp the pink! If the free shipping is for real, make that more obvious!
I really like the variety of designs for your notebooks and would love to see more for the Coptic Stitch Journals. I love the 'Oriental Journal' print and would love to see more along those lines. But everything you have up is gorgeous.
Thanks for the generous giveaway!
I hope I am the lucky one..
I loves Oriental - Coptic Stitch Journal from your shop ^^
The Japanese doll is so adorable :)
Gosh, everything in your shop is lovely, love the yarn and the oriental journal. Thanks for the wonderful giveaway.
I love all the bright colors you use on your books! That and the contrast between those colors and the black or white...I also love the music note one!

This is an amazing giveaway. Thank you.
I love your notebooks. The spinning wheel is an especially cool design. And the alpaca and silk yarn is beautiful is is probably the softest thing in the world. Great combination!
I really like your projects, and i think the photography shows them off well. consider using a more colorful, or textured backdrop to set off the items. Just an idea. Thanks for the giveaway.
