Sewing Green ”Show Us How You Sew Green” Special Offer

Sewing Green author Betz White and custom-fabric printer Spoonflower are teaming up for sustainability. Betz has designed a new Sewing Green print (shown above) and Spoonflower is printing it on 4-oz pure organic cotton. The fabric is available for purchase through Spoonflower's Etsy shop.

To celebrate this beautiful eco-smart collaboration, for $6, while supplies last, Spoonflower will send you a swatch the exact size you need to sew the Organic Washies from Betz’s book. And to sweeten the deal, we invite you to take part in our “Show Us How You ‘Sew Green’” Contest for the chance to win the book of your choice from STC Craft.

We’ve created a Flickr group called “Show Us How You ‘Sew Green’”. To enter, before noon EST on September 14th, post a photo to this group showing one of the following:

-a project you’ve made from Sewing Green (to see a gallery of images from the book, including the washies, click here)

-a project you’ve made with Betz’s new “Sewing Green” fabric

-a green or eco-friendly craft project you’d like to share

All eligible entrants who upload a project photo will be entered into a random drawing for a chance to win the STC Craft book of his or her choice. On or about September 14th, 2009, we will pick three (3) winners in a random drawing. (To see our online catalog, click here and here.
