... and much more!
I'm sitting here tying all loose ends before we take off on our Spring Break vacation (in just a couple of hours....eeeee!) and as I was answering emails and packing up last minute things, I thought, "GAH, I forgot to tell everyone about the Virtual Book Tour! And by the time I get back it'll have started already!"
So, without much further ado, Sewing MODKID Style will be making its rounds the week after next and stopping at the following awesome blogs in crafty blogland. Each blogger will review the book and give away a copy to a lucky reader (courtesy of Wiley). So here is the list:

Don't forget to check it out and leave your comments at every stop for 17 chances to win your own copy!
Before I go, I also wanted to share a couple of entries in the "Show me your book" FaceBook contest. If you'd still like to enter, just head on over to our FB Fan Page and share a picture of yourself, your kid, your pet or your favorite inanimate object with a copy of Sewing MODKID Style. You may shoot it at home, at a bookstore or on vacation. Get creative! I will be giving away a sweet prize (could be a bundle of knits, or a gift certificate to our website... or maybe both?!?) so, go on... show us your book!
Here are Shirleanne Sander's adorable girls showing us some love...
Here is Joey G., better known as Mr. Jona (Stop Staring and Start Sewing!):

And since I would never ask you to do something I wouldn't do myself, well, here ya go (stalking the Crafts sections at Barnes & Noble)...

Oh what fun! Can't wait!
ReplyDeleteMy girls and I looked at our local bookstore and they didn't have it yet or we'd have sent you another photo! :)
How fun Patty. Thank you and Wiley.
ReplyDeleteHave tons of fun on vacation which I'm sure you will. You always go to the best places. Can't wait to see pics.
Woo hoo! I cannot wait to blog it! I need to enter the book contest too! Have a super fun vacation girl!
ReplyDeleteI love this book -- stylish patterns, clear instructions, inspiring photos! I have one question, though, that I'm hoping someone can answer, and I'll use the halter pattern as an example. The chart shows the finished chest size, but since I'm fairly new to knits, I'm not sure if I should choose the exact size of the wearer, allow an extra inch or two for wearing ease, or perhaps even choose a smaller size since knits stretch. Ideas, anyone?
