I'm not sure if there is a limit on comments, problem with blog traffic or a problem with blogger."</i><br /><br /><br />I would enter the following comment if I could: "What a wonderful set! I would love set #1 for womens clothes in American units. I would also love the Burda Dec2011 issue. As for my favorite sewing moment, it was when I took a couture sewing class last year with Susan Khalje of Threads fame. As a result, I now have to debate if I want to do "couture" or not on all my future projects!" <br /> <br />Hopefully I can still enter the giveaway? I can still keep checking to see if your blog takes more comments later but wanted to at least alert you to a problem.<br /> <br />Also, I have been inspired by your blog and others so I just started my own blog at dashingmarmot.wordpress.com (or www.dashingmarmot.com). Hopefully, I'll stick with it for a least a year ;).<br /> <br />Kind regards,<br />Javie (aka Janet)<br /> <br />P.S. I live near Chicago, Illinois in the USA. It's getting colder here!Claire (aka Seemane)https://www.blogger.com/profile/05175575205044308437noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3949413743239587665.post-14764008784636663952012-01-13T08:38:38.772+00:002012-01-13T08:38:38.772+00:00Hi'ya and congrats on your first blog-i-versar...Hi'ya and congrats on your first blog-i-versary and giveaway, and a lovely blog it is and a lovely generous giveaway to boot.

I'm at calicostretch[at]gmail[dot]com.<br />4. My favourite sewing moment was getting my new coverstitch machine finally purring after a very very useful lesson.

Something hinky happened when I clicked on Google connect so I'm not 100% sure. <br /><br />I would choose version #1--women's clothing--since that's what I sew the most in American measurements. <br /><br />I would also choose BurdaStyle January 2012. <br /><br />My favorite sewing adventure this past year was attempting to draft my own dress pattern for my boyfriend's sister's wedding reception. I managed to draft the pattern with some success (based on my toile) but my fabric, and old sari, wasn't up to being cut and sewn. And I ran out of time to baste it to it's lining. Oh well! Next time! <br /><br />Tina <br />http://retrorabbithole.blogspot.com/Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3949413743239587665.post-58096237164387999592012-01-10T22:25:00.290+00:002012-01-10T22:25:00.290+00:00What a giveaway!
