So lets combine hearts and dresses... for this contest you need to make a dress with at least one heart on it... it could be heart fabric or a heart pocket or maybe heart buttons... be creative. You have until Heart Day, February 14th to mail your dress to me or give me your dress. I will keep the dresses and they will go out with an organization delivering dresses to girls in need. I will post pictures of all the heart dresses and the winner or winners will be chosen at random. If we have 10 entries there will be 1 winner... if we have 20 entries there will be 2 winners and so on.
Here are my ideas...not entries but my inspiration for this contest...
or a little more subtle...
Do you see the heart on the t-shirt?
Now for prizes...
Each winner will win their choice of
a box of fabrics to sew dresses (including the pattern)
or a box of trims and bias tape
or a dress kit with everything you need to make one dress
(the tube, the elastic, the bias tape, the trim and the pattern)
I cannot wait to see your creations!

Love it!! So fun! I am actually making a Valentine Dress today for the local craft store to display and then I will get it back to donate to DAG. Can't wait to see all of the great dresses that come in--I love your blue "tumbling heart" one. You truly have a heart for girls.
Well... you will have to make one for the contest!!!
I'm thinking on it :-). Just told my daughter a few minutes ago I was figuring out a heart themed one. BTW, I am making scallops on the one for the shop--first time I have done that and I saw that on your blog and that is what gave me the idea.
Sure will do this!! Thanks!! Can we send you more than one dress for the contest?? I will probably send you more anyway b/c I have some dresses already made up that can be donated.
Yes you are welcome to send more than one dress. Just remember each must involve hearts!
I am making a dress for the contest. When is the deadline?
You have until February 14th to mail it or hand deliver it to me
Suzanne, this is a great idea! DAG Maryville is sewing again on the 23rd...should each person attach their name /address on the dress they make so you will know for the drawing?
Yes Please do attach name, address and email to the dresses
It's in the mail :-). SEW FUN!
