Today’s giveaway sponsor is Chris W Designs by Christine Welsh, a talented bag maker whose patterns I had the pleasure of personally reviewing in the past!
A little about Chris W Designs from her website: Chris W Designs brings you an every growing range of pdf patterns for handbags, purses, tote bags, backpacks and all sorts of bag sewing patterns designer to teach you loads of wonderful bag making techniques.
I couldn’t agree with the above statement more ~ Chris W patterns absolutely taught me some new and fun bag making techniques that helped me create a beautiful bag personalized to my tastes that looks professionally made!
One lucky winner will receive their choice of 5 pdf patterns from Chris W Designs! The fantastic thing about Chris W Designs is their full range of pattern styles – I don’t know how you’ll ever narrow your selection down to 5, but here are a few of my favorites:

| The Evelyn |
The Evelyn is a pattern that I reviewed in the past on Sara’s blog. I absolutely loved making this bag and still use it! The stylish top flap as well as the ring and rivet accents on the handles caught my eye when I first saw this bag. I agree with it being rated as Intermediate and I think this is a fantastic bag to try out if you want to learn to make elastic size pockets, zipper pockets, and a flap style purse. This classy style looks great in a solid or print so you can personalize it with your own unique flare through fabric choice!
Another Chris W pattern I’ve had my eye on is Sugar & Spice:

| Sugar & Spice |
She again uses the classy rivet and ring style on the handles, which I just can’t get enough of, and the unique double pocket style on the front is really fun and o so fancy with the piping accents. This is also rated as intermediate and in addition to the handle accents, it will teach you to use piping and a recessed zipper, skills we could all probably use some practice with!
Yepee…a Giveaway by one of my favorite designers 🙂
I love so many, I’m not sure I can narrow it down! But lately, aside from Tula and AMH, I think I have really been liking Zen Chic, whose name escapes me at the moment
Oooh I love that Sugar and Spice!
Love the bags. The first one is great!!! Love the possibilities.
I would love to make an Evelyn, it is amazing!
Beautiful bags, I would love to make one of each….( this is a shameless ploy to win your bags patterns) =)
These bags are fabulous!!!
I’m a sucker for Echino by Etsuko Furuya. Pricey but soooooo worth it.
