Huge Giveaway! (Sort Of)


I was just cleaning out my craft "junk" boxes, as I tend to do every now and then, and decided I should actually get rid of some of this stuff I have and will never use. Since I am feeling generous I have decided to make some grab bags filled with nic-nacs, scraps, and other bits and pieces. The catch is I will make them pertaining to color. I will take a gallon ziplock bag (or other brand) and fill them with: Bag1 - Red, Bag2 - Orange, etc....

(Colors: Red, Orange, Yellow, Green, Pink, Purple, White, Black)
 
 
How to win? Well, just leave me a comment telling me you are a follower, what your favorite color is, and a link to something sewing/ craft related, be it a pattern or organization tip, etc... All in one comment.
 
Disclaimer: Only open to US, AND only eligable if you do all THREE mentioned above. 

I will choose the winners November 1st.

EDIT: There will be 8 winners total. :) Good Luck!

    HI! I am a follower! My favorite color(s) are blue and green which I used as one color lots of time. Now for the link! I had an organizational hint but would I find a link to go with it? I did, and it is a great idea for me to use also! I get new pizza boxes from our local pizza store and put my quilt projects in them. Small, flat and handy! Keeps everything in one place. Now for the link....I found someone who shows how to cover the boxes so they aren't so "pizza-ish"(Don't think that is a word but it will have to do! http://www.sweethomequiltco.com/weblog/?tag=pizza-box See what you think!

    I am a follower and can't wait to meet you at Sewing Summit! My favorite color has been yellow lately, for sewing I mean. LOL You should bring your scraps to SS! Did you see that someone is organizing a giveaway? You may have seen it already, but maybe not, so I am sharing the Art of Choosing series - http://www.incolororder.com/p/art-of-choosing.html - I used this to reorganize my stash when setting up my sewing area! Refolding all of my fabric took a couple of days, but it was definitely worth it. :)

    I'm a new follower too but I like what I have seen so far. Humm favorite color(s)Purples & White/Creams. Well there are soooo many great sites to play on that just picking one is very hard to do. Because I like to make things that include embroidery in my doll quilts, I like to pick out all the needed flosses, a package of needles, a seam ripper and small pair of scissors and place them in the a empty Crystal Light container. These have a nice snap on lid and are crush proof.

    (http://www.walmart.com/ip/Crystal-Light-Lemonade-Sugar-Free-Soft-Drink-Mix-3.2-oz/10292766)

    I can also place spools of thread in them to go with my hand appliqueing projects.

    Thank You for such a great give away. I love playing with scraps and bits in my doll quilts & crazy quilting patches.

    Sincerly,
    Tricia
