Giveaway #3: Darlybird

darly bird giveaway  

So these giveaways are getting better and better. Have you noticed?

Confession: Darlybird has been favorite online boutique of mine since I discovered her products popping up all over Stephanie's house. And then, Rachel the all-star owner, moved into my hometown and opened a fabric boutique about 10 minutes from my house, with an entire room (and then some) dedicated to eclectic Darlybird cuteness. My confession? This is my go-to shop to visit when I'm down. It always cheers me up. So much color and happiness.  You can't beat her prices. And I've never left empty handed;)

Today, Darly Bird is giving away ONE grand gift certificate of $50 to use anywhere in the shop. FIVE will receive GOODY BAGS which are mystery bags stuffed with random lovely goods from the shop, amounting to $45 each in product. And ALL can use the code 'SARAHJANE' to get 20% off the shop until MAY 1st, 2013! (Amazing!!)

I'm so excited for you. You're gonna get hooked.

I'm so ready for a weekend. You? I've been spinning up lots of little things  I'm super excited to show you (new fabric anyone?) and I'm kinda pooped out. I get tired SO much faster. This is my 4th pregnancy, and you kinda forget (or at least I kinda forget) that I'm not invincible. I never was Wonder Woman, but if I ever WASN'T her, it's now. Ya know? Things take 10 times longer it seems with having to be down and resting more. But on the positive side, taking breaks and resting is sooooooo important, and something that I am really blessed to make the excuse to have more.  Did I mention I have pre-term labor tendencies? It's a blessing that my work mostly takes sitting. Dishes and laundry...that's another issue! (But it never was my fav to begin with so, who am I kidding).

So. Next week. I thought we could all use some pick-me-ups. Spring excitement, ya?

I'm going to be hosting a whole bunch of giveaways next week (from my lovely Fabric Store sponsors, some favorite new boutiques of mine, and some from me too!) and I'm thinking you'll all want to be invited. The first giveaway will be posted Monday, and we'll just keep adding more all week! Sound fun? We are going to shake things up here, and add some excitement. I could for sure use it. Can't wait!!

And lastly, I've got to share with you this photo. It's our FIRST lemon we grew. I live in Utah, and it's very dry here. But we bought a Meyer Lemon tree in California over a year ago, strapped it in a seatbelt, and drove it to our lovely little desert climate. It took a year, but this little baby tree produced it's FIRST lemon this month, and it was such a family affair. In fact, we all picked it off at the same time. And now, there are about a dozen more lemons starting, and it's quite exciting. Meyer lemons don't ship well, so being able to grow one in a pot that fills our living room with lovely smelling blossoms, is such a treasure.

Anyways...had to share.

So see you Monday bright and early!

Have a lovely weekend!

Free PDF Print: Shining Brighter

how bright will you be? I've been thinking a lot. Like I'm sure you have too.

I'm a mother. I spend most of my time vigilantly watching over my kids. It's my calling. My life.  Everything I do, I am thinking of them and their safety, growth, happiness. Just like you do.

And when booms go off, my mother-heart gets on high alert for the moment, and then sad. Affected by the darkness that can so easily permeate. Torn for the families affected directly. Worried, only like a mother can.

But last night, as I lay trying to sleep, I kept reminding myself of the incredible duty I have to shine brighter. Overwhelm the darkness. Make a lasting mark. Vigilantly shine out the yucky stuff. It's not going to get any better unless I keep shining.

This passage came to mind, and I felt so much better knowing that it's up to me. I can make a difference.

This is a FREE DOWNLOAD for you today!

I needed it, and I thought you might too.

Shine a little brighter, and it will make all the difference.

Spring Sewing Ideas

pin and flickr fridays Spring has brought my sewing machine out again. I've got new fabric (squee!) that I'm cutting into, and I find myself collecting ideas for spring projects. You? Like, I need some more picnic quilts, a good skirt for my daughter and I'd love to get Ian a bed quilt for his bed. All projects that I've not really been motivated to create lately. Something about spring gets me all excited again.

I was browsing through your AMAZING Flickr photos and Pinterest photos last night, and I wanted to share a few. The Flickr Groups are rockin' awesome and I just love getting inspired by your ideas. Please go and take a peek....get inspired, cause there is no way I can include all your amazing designs here!
