Giveaway! The Kitchen Sink Bag!


I am so excited about this bag pattern! It's so fast and easy and I'm thinking it will be my new go-to gift for brides, mamas, or birthdays! It has a wire rim around the top (which can be made from recycled clothes hangers), nice rounded edges, the main bag is only three pieces so its super quick, and best of all they are sized so that two mini bags can fit perfectly in front of one big bag so it makes organizing easy!  




The official description goes like this:
This wire rimmed bag can help you organize the trunk of your car, a closet, cloth diapers, a bookshelf, or a toy area. It can go to the beach, the library the grocery store or camping, and when you don’t need it anymore, it will collapse nice and flat out of the way. The Kitchen Sink Bag can hold your knitting, sewing projects, coupons, or a picnic lunch; it’s also a go-to gift for new moms, brides, or bridal parties! Monogram it, appliqué it, add funky fabrics or a few extra pockets, have fun and stay organized! Your new bag is guaranteed to hold everything but the kitchen sink!



 The pattern has been finished and sent off to testers so I hope to have it in the shop by early next week, but today I'm going to give you all a chance to win a copy!! Just leave a comment on this post and tell me what you would like to use this bag for. For every 20 comments I will pick 1 winner so that's a 1/20 chance of winning the pattern!! I will announce the winners on Saturday morning. Good luck!! xo, Sam

I would love to win a pattern. I have been trying to figure out a neat carry-all to keep my coupon notebook and my "jotting-down-ideas-book" for my Beloveds writing. Then there is my Bibles that I need to corral in one group--well, I could just go on and on and on for things I could use them for instead of the plastic totes that are so ugly. This in addition to the endless uses as gifts to people. Okay, I know this is too long. Maybe I need one to store my too many words. hehe

So cute! This pattern looks way cuter than some of the "commercial" totes of this type I have seen out there. I would love to make one with Amy Butler fabric!

I can see several of these around our house to corral random toys that my girls need to take back to their room. Definitely one in the car to hold all the "kid things" in the backseat. I think this would make a great teacher gift too! So many uses.

What a fantastic pattern. Trunk organizer, toy organizer, books, Legos, hair bows, sewing projects.

Hi Samantha! It's actually my first comment on your blog, but I've been reading it for quite a while. You're such an inspiration! I'm a passionate knitter and a beginning seamstress, so these bags would be perfect to hold all of my crafts :)

Let's see...I could use one to store all the patterns that won't fit into my file cabinet, we have a new grandbaby on the way and our daughter could store diapers & wipes, etc. in one, and our 4 yr old granddaughter always needs more storage for toys! That's at least 3 plus I think I would prefer one on some snazzy fabric to put in the Jeep instead of the "storebought " ones I have now. We have started using totes to pack our clothes in for car trips. They work just fine!

Hmmm...where would I not use it?! My sewing room, my closet, my girls' closets and to make for gifts also. Love this one!!

I would make one to use at the changing table for my new baby on the way. I'd also make one for my girls to hold hairbows and accessories. I think it would make a wonderful craft organizer as well...and my boys would love a boy version for their Legos. The list goes on and on and on!

I think that I would definitely use that to keep track of all the different size diapers that this grandma has. With three grand kids and one more on the way there a many different sizes of diapers, swim diapers, diaper covers etc floating around here.

Definitely to organize the kids toy shelf, then the laundry room, then one for the car, and a few for the garage... This seems like the perfect tool for many of my OCD summer projects.

i think this would live on the floor of my car, in front of the seat the baby sits on... to hold the baby carrier, the umbrella, the box of tissues, the flotsam and jetsam of our life....

Wow!!! I love this pattern! I really need to organize under my kitchen sink and was really wanting to avoid anything plastic so this pattern would be perfect. However, I can see it could be used in so many areas of our home. No doubt one will end up as a wee carry cot for my little girl's babies. Love your blog by the way. Have been a silent reader for a few years now (all the way from New Zealand)It's about time I say thanks. I love ALL your patterns by the way too!

Hi Sam, been reading your blog for a while. I am a keen sewer myself. Your new bag looks perfect for all women. Moms or not. We can all do with a bit of organisation. Love following your travels and creations. Very jealous at times. America has soooo much exploring available. We are limited here in South Africa. At 40 I have prity much seen all of it. Would love to win your bag pattern.
All the best Kira

I'd love to win this pattern. And let's be honest, if I don't win I'm just gonna buy it anyway. So it'll be mine soon! I'd like one to put diapers in to keep them organized. I am soon to have 3 in 3 yrs! Also I'll make one to keep my knitting organized. Oh! And one for our school books...sounds like I need a lot!

Wow! This bag is just begging to be a car caddy on a trip. It has a place for everything if you use the mini bags. In my car caddy I would keep a a few first aid items. a pair of scissors, a small tube of hand lotion and sun screen. some napkins and wet wipes. And of course you can't forget the moon pies and crackers. It would even hold a couple of bottles of water! Great job Sam! Of course I don't sew but my sister and my best friend do! Love to you and all your family .Pegi Gilmore

New triple bunks.

Ben designed new bunk beds for the "girl's dorm" and "boy's dorm" in our house. We LOVE them!! We are almost done with all of the work, just a few loose ends left to tie up, but I couldn't wait to show off his handy-work. This is the girl set. We stained them with colored stain and we really like how that turned out. It's almost the color of cranberries. I still need to paint the boards that are attached to the wall. I'm going to paint them the color of the wall so that it looks like the beds are floating. :)  This is the boy set while still under construction. We ordered new bunk mattresses, but they haven't come in yet. I will show you guys pictures when they are completely finished. We stained these green, it looks like the color of bamboo. The kids LOVE these beds! And oh the space we have now! I'll be back soon with finished pictures! xo, Sam If any of you make beds using these plans could you send us a picture? We

The Handmade Dress Infomercial: Do you suffer from scrached DVD's?

Do your children cry when they can't watch their favorite movie because of irritating scratches? Are you sick of paying good money for movies that are scratched minutes after you take them from the case? Do you often wish that we could just go back to VHS because you could leave them out in the rain, bring them in and use them for a coaster, and then let the baby throw it for fun and it would STILL WORK!? ME TOO ! . We have struggled for years with scratched movies that were no longer watchable, but not anymore! We have finally found the secret formula to rid you of this nasty little problem forever! . Crest Kids Toothpaste! YES, that's what I said! Kids toothpaste! . A few months back I heard some place that toothpaste would take of scratches and I tried it and it didn't work, then the other day out of pure desperation I tried it my way. IT WORKED!

The Family Closet

It's another gray day so the pictures aren't great, but I wanted to get these posted since I have a few minutes. The family closet has changed my life people!! It has taken my most overwhelming chore from crazy to totally doable. We had to start in the laundry room because that is were most of this process starts. These storage racks went on sale for 69$ right after Christmas and we got 3. We also got several of the $3.50 Steralite clothes baskets because they fit side by side perfectly. In the laundry room I now have baskets labeled (Whites, Towels, Darks, Reds & Purples -we have a lot of those!) to separate clothes into, baskets marked "Clean" for clean clothes, a place for storage (extra dish cloths, table cloths, socks that need a mate). The laundry room is much less intimidating now, I actually like going in there! I also now have room for my drying rack in here! I painted a huge henna design on the wall to pretty it up a bit. :) The Caffee sign
