Once again, I would like to thank the two ladies who so kindly offered to test out the pattern for me and whose valuable comments and suggestions are most appreciated. Here are their versions of the travel wallet.

Because I am so glad this eBook is finally completed, I am giving you, my dear readers, a chance to win a FREE copy! Aside from the eBook, I am also sending the lucky winner a fat quarter of this travel-themed fabric from David Textiles so she (or he) can get to work on her (or his) wallet straightaway.
Interested much? To join, please share with me (in the comments section) which place you would most want to visit and why. Maybe you will even give me travel ideas in the process. Me? I would love to go to the Holy Land. I know it will be a deep spiritual experience for me. My daughter has promised me she will take me when she's older (and when she has the money). Hopefully, I would still be strong enough to travel when the time comes!
You have until next Sunday, the 26th. And yeah, don't forget to leave your name and email address, of course. (Any 'Anonymous' comments left will not be considered, sorry!) I will use the random number generator to determine the winner. Please, please, please join! It's no fun when there are only a handful of people to choose from...
Ok, before I go, let me just show off some of my baked goodies of the past week. Here are the Lalaloopsy-inspired vanilla cupcakes I mentioned in my previous post.
Have never really heard of Lalaloopsies till I was asked to make these decorations. I think these characters are cute...but at the same time, quite creepy-looking?! They remind me so much of the movie, Coraline. You know, the button eyes?
And here's another one....a unicorn cake! I really had great fun making the topper. I just love a good challenge.
So that's it for now. Have a great week ahead. And please don't forget about the giveaway. Hope to hear from all of you soon!
Oh Corinne,
ReplyDeletewhat a lovely idea... the fabric is gorgeous...
What kind of place would I like to see??? I don't know if you know that I have lived in the States almost 20 years ago... I would like to see that place in TN and how much it changed... or rather visit my friends in Florida... or see where my great-cousin lives in Australia (Wollongong)
But for that I have probably wait till the kids are grown... ;-))) and I can save up some more cash...
Your cakes are awesome... I really regret it that I can't order from you...
Maybe I should add you to my visit-list too ;-))))))))))))
Warmest regards
Andrea

ReplyDeleteI have a 7 year old that asks weekly to go to Disney World so yup, that would be my destination!
If I'm announced as the winner, I'll send ya my email address......you are the best!
Thanks!
Your cupcakes and cakes are so fantastic! Thank you for the chance to win your giveaway. I am, goodenpd(at)hotmail<.>com. I have always wanted to go to Morocco, but I doubt that will happen anytime soon. Something a bit more realistic would be traveling to Yosemite National Park here in the U.S. Regardless, I am sure I can find daily use for the travel wallet.
ReplyDeleteOh Looks great. They did a wonderful job....
ReplyDeleteThats a tough question I have a long list of where I would like to visit but I would really love to go to the great wall of China.
ReplyDeleteLooks like a great pattern :)
I would love to go to the Caymans or another Carribean Island. It looks like so much fun! I adore the travel wallet idea, and it's not ugly or clunky like some of the other kinds of wallets. leconam(dot)w(at)gmail(dot)com
ReplyDeleteGreat looking pattern! There are so many places I'd like to visit, it's really difficult to name just one, but if I had to name one, it would be France.
ReplyDeleteThanks for the opportunity to enter the giveaway!

ReplyDeleteThe place I would most like to visit, that is hard, since I haven't been out of Mo much, let alone out of the US,, so I will pick Spain..

Sorry, missed the "anonymous will be excluded" thing
I think I'd like to travel back to USA, so I can not only meet all my newly found Blog/internet friends, I can go quilt shop hopping - when I've been there before, I didn't sew and what a waste of shopping time I did have! Just think how much fun I could have now that I know what/where/how of sewing!

corinne,
ReplyDeletei love your lalaloopsies cupcakes toppers... do you have a tutorial for that? because i can't wait to make those cute faces... thanks!
Sorry, I do not have a tutorial for that. I was not really familiar with Lalaloopsy so I had to print out photos of the various kinds of dolls.
DeleteTheir faces are the same, only the hairstyles are different. I used a clay extruder for the hair so I can get even strands.
I'd loved to go to Spain. Eat Tapas and watch the bull fights :) My husband and I are planning to go to Spain for our honeymoon unfortunately due to lack of funds we end up in Hong Kong :)

ReplyDeleteWould love to go to Paris with my husband and kiss at the top of the Eiffel Tower..afterwards visit disneyland with our kids :)abigailcaidoy at gmail dot com
ReplyDeleteI would love to go to Australia! I've been there once before but it was more than 25 years ago and would love to see the changes.
ReplyDeleteI've got a whole bucket list of exotic travel locations, Peru, New York, Miami airport (to see that rainbow tunnel thing), Africa - all over the world really. But closer to home I'd like to visit Tasmania and WA - the only two states I've yet to visit in Australia.

ReplyDeleteI love your travel folder and would love to have a copy of the pattern.
Thanks for the opportunity! I was going to make one anyways but might as well try to win the pattern!
ReplyDeleteIt has been my dream to visit the United Kingdom, specifically London. My business is called london*purple! I am actually getting the opportunity to spend 11 days there next month (hence why I want to make a travel wallet) and I can't wait!
I've wanted to visit New Zealand and Australia since I was in high school. We were assigned to read "Green Dolphin Street;" I've wanted to visit ever since.
ReplyDeleteLove the travel wallet! Let's see.....I would love to take my son to Disneyland. Who knows, maybe one day we will do that.
