Peek A Who October 23… Onto the Second Day…

By Marian | October 23, 2018 - 1:31 am |October 23, 2018 2018 Events, Events, Home, My Patterns, Peek A Who 2018

Did you love the projects shown yesterday as much as I did? I sure enjoyed what I saw of them. Its fun to see what others come up with, or how fabrics can so affect our patterns in the most wonderful ways and sometimes in the more strange ways.

Today’s bloggers are no different, they will show us projects that may boggle the mind, and at the same time may get our creative juices flowing.

Today Is The First Day of Peek A Who!!

Today we start the Halloween Hop with this year’s theme called Peek A Who. I’m a huge fan of peek a boo clipart and illustrations. I just think they are cute. They are not so easy to find tho. I especially like it when I can find art where the actual object is peeking over a window, or by the side of a wall, or even behind a sign or other objects. Thus Peek A Who became this year’s theme.

We’ll start today with 4 other bloggers. However, while my actual day for this hop isn’t until Friday, Oct 26, each day I have a Calibre Art Mat Sale that you can enter a giveaway for. Not all of the blogs will show this offer, so if you’re hoping to win a 50% off coupon for one of these amazing mats, you’ll need to stop in here to enter the coupon giveaway.

Peek A Who Schedule… Starting October 22, 2018

Starting next Monday, October 22, 2018 is the annual Halloween hop here at Seams To Be Sew. I’ve done this hop now for the last four years, and have enjoyed every moment of it. It’s the one hop each year that many bloggers look forward to. In the USA in particular, Halloween is the second most popular holiday in the USA next to Christmas for many people. This year’s theme is Peek A Who… a fun little theme for the peekers who exist beyond the walls…

I have a few giveaways from great sponsors like Timeless Treasures and The Fat Quartershop for you with this hop and my traditional pattern a day giveaway. It means that you’ll have to stop by this blog each day to get the pattern. It’s only available free for 24 hours only, so if you want it, you have to stop by and get it on the day it’s offered. It works in the same way that 12 Days does coming at the end of November thru Dec 17, 2018.

Calibre Art is also doing a sale of 50% off there mats during this week for us. If you’ve purchased one of these mats in the past, you already know how wonderful they are. Each day, I’ll offer the ability to get a coupon for 5 lucky people to purchase their mats at 50% off. You’ll have until November 1, 2018, to use the code for your mat purchases. This offer is only available at Seams To Be Sew, and is for US residents only because Amazon does not ship these mats outside of the USA.

The schedule and prizes being offered during the hop are just a click away, click the Continue Reading link to see what’s being given away and who are participating in the Peek A Who hop… Continue reading →

Winners For the Last Week of the My Happy Place Row Along and Ideas Please…

As this event has now come to a close, the last business to attend to is the last week of the Row Along and it’s winners from the giveaways our generous sponsors offered for this row along.

We are very lucky that they are so very generous in offering their products to give away during this event and I hope you will show your support by buying from them all year long.

I’d like to take a moment and thank all the bloggers, and designers who came together to create their patterns for this year’s theme of My Happy Place. You were all amazing, your designs for the rows well done and so beautiful. We had various techniques which are always a bonus, many more pieces than in past years, paper piecing which is also popular and of course applique.

To all our visitors who came out to visit us during this event, thank you so much. While I know that six weeks seems like a long time, I prefer to do a six-week event because it gives me some breathing room between each featured day, versus if I had to do it daily. I simply wouldn’t have the time.

Last, our sponsors,

a HUGE Thank You for your generous spirit and products to giveaway during this event.

Electric Quilt is offering a 20% off coupon until October 23, 2018, for any of there products except EQ Academy. This is a great discount if you’ve been thinking about purchasing or upgrading EQ, or even purchasing some of the add-ons. The coupon code is:

While today is the final day of this event… Events like this to me never really end because the future will come and hopefully you will make the patterns offered during this event and you’ll show us what you did with them.

Today is the last day for designers to hand out patterns for the row along.

Tuesday is Show and Tell Day, and this is where the bloggers who’ve participated will show you some of the projects they made with there rows.

Today’s giveaways will end on Tuesday. I know it’s two days earlier than it should, but there is no need to run them longer, so please keep that in mind as you visit each of the sites over the next few days.

Some of the bloggers are keeping their rows online until the end of October, some are till the end of the year, some are forever free and others such as myself will have them in there online shops and some already have them in their online shops.
