Weekly Giveaway #19

Hi again, This week I thought that I'd do something a little bit different for the weekly giveaway. This week, I'm not giving away a book, but a pile of fabric! Several months ago I developed a set of autumn-themed table decorations for our October issue. The issue hit newsstands yesterday, so there's a chance that you've already seen the article. page-1 The table runner, napkin rings and place card holders shown above are easy to make, and they'd be a great project to tackle with your kids one quiet Sunday afternoon before Thanksgiving. Just think how great your festive table would look all decked out in the colours of fall. I bought so much material for this project that I've got enough left over to put together a kit for this week's lucky winner. If your name is chosen, you'll receive a package that includes enough fabric, felt, embroidery floss and clothespins to make the table runner, plus six napkin rings and six place card holders. I'll include a copy of the magazine and print-outs of the leaf tempates, too. To enter, leave one comment on this post by Sunday, September 13 at 11:59 p.m. I'll post a winner here on Monday, September 14. This week, I'm wondering: how do you feel about us putting templates for craft projects online? I've never been much of a one for the grid-enlargement method, and it seems to me that people are more likely to have a printer at their disposal than a photocopier, so to me, putting PDFs online is an easy solution. (Of course, we're always happy to mail patterns to people who ask.) What do you think?
