Meet EMM Contest WIN free stuff

Okay, this is a week long contest and there are several prizes up for grabs! I’m hosting this contest in order to get to know my potential customers and to introduce you all to a wonderful lady, friend, and artist…Meet Emm Illustrate. She’s one of the sweetest people you’ll ever meet; I love her use of color and her sketches. She does great portrait sketches as well, just give her a copy of a picture you would like sketched and she’ll bring it to life. The best part is that she does it because she loves it!




So, what’s up for grabs? One lucky person will get a portrait sketch done by EMM Illustrate. We will also be giving away a few purse size note pads with EMM Illustrate art decorating the cover. I’m tossing in a Mermaid Skirt and Tennis Dress Tutorial set (perfect for learning to sew clothes), The Flower Burst Headband Tutorial (anyone who can thread a needle can make this) and a hand full of headbands. Who knows what other goodies I’ll come across as well?

The winners of this contest will be chosen randomly and you can enter multiple times. Here’s how…

1 “Like” EMM Illustrate on Facebook
2 “Like” Tenderfeet Stitches on Facebook
3 Follow the Tenderfeet Stitches Blog
4 Answer the Daily Tendefeet Stitches blog contest question
5 Refer someone to either Facebook page or this blog

Each checked item is one entry. Each daily contest question answer is one entry. Each time your name appears in a comment on this blog counts as one entry; whether it is someone writing to say you referred them or simply your own comment. One condition, if you never comment on the blog you will not be entered. So, if you “Like” a Facebook page, comment on the blog “I Like EMM Illustrate” and “I Like Tenderfeet Stitches.”

Does your head hurt because you’re confused? Mine does and I thought this all up! Let’s just try to have fun. If you have a question, ask and I’ll give you another entry

Are you ready for the kicker? I know, I know, how could you possibly take anymore? If EMM Illustrate reaches 250 fans and Tenderfeet Stitches reaches 300 fans then one random entrant will get a free Easter dress, made from any fabric in my private stash. Off we go…

Contest ends Friday Febuary 4th 2011.

TODAY'S QUESTION... What is most important to you when buying clothing for children? I'm leaving yesterdays question upp and asking HOW COLD IS IT?!?

    I'd also be secretly wishing we werent broke and we could have another, and hopefully a girl!! Do you think Kingsley would get mad at me if I put him in a skirt?

    I took sewing lessons once, I wish I would hv paid more attention. Yes I would like to relearn! I can't sew to save my life!

  11. JenniferJanuary 29, 2011 at 12:20 PM

    I can't sew at all. I'd be interested in learning, though I doubt I'd have the patience to really get good at it. I've always been more of a buyer than a DIYer!

    I can not sew. I would love to learn how to sew though.. Especially if I could be as good as you Amanda!!

    I would love to have sketches made of a bunch of family photos. Old ones of my grandparents, my brother and I when we were kids, my husband and I, and, of course, our Baby Alex. I would get vintage-like frame and do a collage on one of our walls.

    I would love to hv a sketch of all four of my babies, because it would be timeless. I would hang it in the living room for all to see. It would be priceless.

    I loveeeee blue and brown color combinations. I think they look so beautiful and classic on little girls. I also love pink and gray together.

  20. UnknownJanuary 31, 2011 at 9:30 AM

    Bummer I missed some questions. Well I love pink and girly, I also like vintage prints, florals, black and white. I like patterns that are simple and classic, even for my clothing I never go bright or crazy. For boys I like when the dress like little men. Blues, greasy, and green.

  27. JenniferJanuary 31, 2011 at 12:34 PM

    For artwork, I love anything black and white (sketches, photography). I especially love art that wasn't meant to be art. We were gifted a railroad map that is over 100 years old of the area we live in and had it framed. It's my favorite piece. I also made some shadow boxes of family baby heirlooms for my daughter's room. For clothing, I love flowery girly things for little girls, but not so much for grown women. For boys and men, I love prep (polo shirts, argyle, sweater vests). Purple and green are my favorite colors.

    I mostly look at cuteness, then price, and then quality.

  34. UnknownFebruary 2, 2011 at 11:10 AM

    I like to make sure its quality is good and it will last a long time..so they can be handed down. I also buy things big so when spending the money my children can wear the item for longer than then could if I only bought it in their current size. :-)

  35. UnknownFebruary 2, 2011 at 11:17 AM

    Quality and style. My kids are tiny so they stay in the same size for a while, and I want to make sure the clothes will last.

    Quality, fit and fashion. My kids are long so I often have to by a bigger size just for the length. It's rainy and 45.
