This giveaway is now closed.

The winner of yesterday’s giveaway is Tiffany {__andtiffany@yahoo.com}. HIP HIP HOORAY! Tiffany, please email me with your ruffled selections {you’ve won a diaper/wipe wristlet, a medium zipped pouch and a small zipped pouch, along with your mailing address, xoxo!}

Tuesday night I took the bus downtown {a quick 20-minute ride} and met Zack for dinner at my favorite restaurant. We feasted on yummy Italian food and seriously enjoyed the celebration of Gussy Sews 1st year. My mother-in-law mentioned something that I really think is amazing: write down what the end of year 1 feels like, so I can remember it in the future :] I totally agree, some times it can be hard to remember the little details. There are definitely a few from my first day that I don’t think I’ll ever forget… mmm. I’m very thankful.

The first two picks on the top row are from our date Tuesday night. The bottom two pics are from yesterday (Wednesday). Bauer and I usually walk with Zack to the bus stop, then the bow-man and I take a nice, loooong morning walk. AND THEN MY DAY GETS CRAZY, hah! I’ve been thinking a lot lately on “the power of asking for help” — how much it’s assuaged me and seriously benefited the biz. {mom, do you remember that vocab word, from like 7th grade? hah! assuage. and how you told me how I should remember how to spell it!}

♥ Here’s the last batch of new product — remember the discount code “wednesday20” for 20% off your order expires tonight! {Thursday at 11:59pm CST} —

Vintage Romance small zipped pouch and medium zipped pouch

Vintage Romance wristlet/clutch and clutch

Vintage Romance make-up bag

Giveaway #1

Today I’m giving away $100 credit to my shop! Imagine the combinations you can create with this amount of shop credit! Seriously — this prize is like winning a handmade jackpot *wink*.

Throughout the week I added new Gussy products, there are 25 new ruffled items ready for you to bring home :] My favorite items are this tote bag, this zipped pouch and this headband. I use one of these items DAILY {if not all of them daily}! ♥

    OK, I sew in my free time. Free time with four kids in tow that is. Sewing is my therapy, my release, my way to pay for sports camp, a confirmation that I can do something that makes someone happy. God has taken my sewing “career” on so many different adventures. Currently, he is filling my head with tons of ideas for purses, pouches and accessories that can interchange, ruffle, button and bring a smile to someone’s face.
    I have read a bunch of blogs. Awesome Christian women sharing their faith, their trade and their lives one post at a time. I think it is time that I show the world how God is working (not to mention how exciting life with 4 young kids can be).
    I would LOVE to win the blog lessons gift! Thanks for the giveaway!

  292. heather cloudt says

    The credit wouldn’t be too shabby either – my birthday is a month away *wink*

    That class would be such a boost for my BLOG I am trying to create. It feels so overwhelming and I know I just need help and guidance to get the ball rolling. I am salvating over this. Seriously! (drip…drip…drop…)

    Congratulations on your 1st year! How scary and exciting it must have been. That $100 shop credit would mean I could get a NEW bag. I love Goodwill, but I’ve really got my eye on that Garden Fresh Market Tote! Thanks for quitting your day job!

    Wow! $100!?! The market tote I received in the mail yesterday needs some friends!!!!!!

    Ooohhh…. I’m working on starting a new blog for my new (teaching) job starting this fall… would love to win the e-course!

  570. Rhiann says

    Send the store credit my way! MAYBE I’d be able to settle on which bag I want the most!

  572. Rhiann says

    I wouldn’t mind that class either…I’m even tossing around the idea of starting my own blog soon!
