I made something! I did! It's been so long since I actually started and finished something in a weekend that I'm giddy with excitement.
This past week I went away and before I even packed my undies, I pulled out all the kits that I had purchased this past year (which gave me a great selection to choose from, mind you) and chose four of my faves and stuffed them in my bag. Then, I proceeded to pack. It's all about priorities folks, get with the program!
I spent the weekend stitching away, and slowly but surely my little scissor case was completed. The outside and appliqué are all made of hand dyed woolens, the inside is flannel. I used Valdani, Cosmos and The Gentle Art threads, then I added the wonderful hand dyed buttons by Hillcreek Designs and TADAAAAAA! Isn't it the bomb? I love it!
Do you have a wonderful scissor that you would love to sheathe in this beautiful little case?
Then, leave a comment and it could be yours.
I will choose a random winner on Wednesday.
Good luck!

Beautiful scissors case, I would be proud to carry my scissors in it!
It's beautiful Brenda! I don't think I could give it away if it was mine! Thanks for the chance to win it! :0)
My special scissors are the dress making shears my mom gave me years ago. They belonged to her and still have the colored yarn she tied on them. I can remember her showing me how to use them when she was teaching me how to sew. So many years ago..she began teaching me how to sew when I was around 8 years old...I'm 53 now and she is 85. My special scissors would be perfect for such a beautiful scissor holder!
I would be tickled periwinkle blue to sport my scissors in that beautiful,snazzy case...Love it! And your quilt shop:)
Beautiful scissor case Brenda! I got my first Gingher dressmaker scissors for my BD last summer. I love reading you blog stories and events. They are always so well written and give me a giggle at times too! Thanks!
My special scissors would love a little case to call home...they are just sitting in my top drawer all alone right now..

Beautiful job on the scissor case. A good pair of scissors is a blessing for wool projects. My favorite are Dovo. Thanks for the opportunity to win!
Good Morning Brenda,
I'd love the scissor case as it would make finding my scissors so much easier than having the huge honking red ribbon that I have tied on them now!
Two stops from Santa,

I was really hoping that you were going to tell us that the kits were being re-issued. I have loved following your progress on this case, and would love to have it to house my 30-year-old Gingher shears.
I've enjoyed watching the progress of this lovely case all week! Thanks for offering it for a giveaway.

I like to keep sleeves on my scissors to protect them, but I only have plastic sleeves. I would love to have such a beauty to use for my scissors. Thanks for the chance.

I sure wish I lived closer to where you are for many reasons. Thanks for the chance tohave something you made. Hugs to you and GP too.
I LOVE the scissor case and I love my Gingher dressmaking shears that I splurged on many years ago when I first learned how to sew. Still using them today 20+ years later! Thanks for the chance to win!

Love the case! It would fit my scissors perfectly
I think it is the cutest scissor holder I have yet to see. My talent led me to make them out of Plastic canvas and out of pot holders. They are so handy and l would love this one too.
Thank you. Donna La Vack
