It's the kick-off to Sew Grateful Week. Aren't we so lucky that the name of our hobby sounds so much like a word used so often in the English language? The potential plays on words are so endless.
Debi of My Happy Sewing Place is the charming hostess. As she puts it, "This is the week to show your thankfulness for our wonderful sewing community and people in your life that support your love of sewing!"
I think the main idea is to make something using fabric, pattern, notions, etc. you won in a giveaway from someone else's blog. I still have not won anything, try as I might, so I've decided to host my own giveaway in order toincrease my karma points show you how much I love you. You are wonderful, after all. I'm so glad I started a blog because I've re-discovered a skill I absolutely love, and all your support makes me want to keep getting better.

A FABRIC BURRITO. (Zero calories.)
I mean, some fabric yardage that just happens to be rolled up like a burrito in that photo. This is a lovely purple and black plaid medium-weight wool, 58 inches (1.47 m) wide and 2.333333 yards (84 in) (2.13 m) long.
I live in a smoke-free, pet-free home, but I did buy this fabric from a secondhand store so I do not know the conditions of its previous habitat(s). It is in good shape and does not have any rips or stains. I did not wash it or do anything at all with it besides store it on my fabric shelf. I will lint roll it much better before I ship it, though, promise!
This wool needs an owner who will give it the attention it deserves. Such as turn it into a chic jacket and blog about it, for starters.
Oh, the possibilities!
