Woo hoo! We're having a sale!

1000 subscribers to Shiny Happy World! Actually 1041 - there was small explosion Monday while I was feverishly finalizing the R2-D2 Beanie pattern instead of obsessively checking my numbers. Many thanks to all of you for telling your friends, featuring me on your blogs, "liking" me on Facebook - and showing up every week to learn, comment, and share your work! I'm thrilled beyond words at how quickly this little site has grown. And we haven't even started garment sewing yet! Soon, my friends. Very soon.

SALE!

And now I want to thank you! I wanted to have a Buy 1 Get 1 Free sale in my shop, but I had to do some fancy dancing with my shopping cart to make that work and the result is actually a Buy 1, Get 1 Free, Get Everything Else Half Off sale. Here's how it works. . .

1. Add two (or more) items to your shopping cart. The pre-discount total needs to be at least $10.00 for the code to work.
2. Enter the discount code THANKYOU.
3. Presto! Your order total will be 50% off.

You'll get the usual instant download option, plus an emailed link to download later if you prefer.

This is a one-day sale. It's going on now - and ends at midnight (EST) tonight - Wednesday, May 18th. So don't dawdle!

You can use the code here on the blog (every pattern is in the sidebars) or in the shop (which has more sorting options).

Remember - all of my patterns (*cough* except the R2-D2 Beanie *cough*) are designed especially for beginners. I don't release a pattern until there's a video teaching you every skill you need to complete the project. So you can start anywhere, with any pattern you like. The most important thing is to make something you will love!

Happy sewing everyone! You're fabulous!

Best,

Wendi

PS - Your friends are my friends! Please feel free to pass along the discount code to anyone you like. You can share this link on Facebook or Twitter. You can even pick up the phone and tell a friend! But remember - the sale ends at midnight tonight.
