The great Baggy giveaway



I've made some more eco-bags and this time I'm giving them away to 3 lucky commenters.

These are not your super-chic bags. They are designed to get scrunched up in your hand bag and to be whipped out when you need it for:
  • that bottle of milk you had to pick up on the way home
  • or the Farmer's Market
  • something

I drew the designs on with a Fabrico marker. You can see them closer on my Flickr photos.

Unfortunately, I'm limiting this giveaway to NZ folks. As much as it galls me, I'm not going to pay the crazy price NZ Post wants to get these bags to places overseas. (Their website is quoting me up to NZ$65.00 for a calico bag that weighs 12g, depending on what type of postage I choose!) Sorry my faithful overseas readers. :-(

So - you know what to do. If you want to be in the draw, leave me a comment :) Lurkers - this is your moment! You could be a lucky lurker!

I'll close the draw on Friday 8th .... uh, late. Like Saturday morning.

  9. Oh, they're cute! Sorry I'm out of the running. But maybe I'll get inspired to track down one of those pens and haul out the sewing machine and make one of my own.

  11. I wish I lived in NZ just so I could have one of those bags (and meet you, of course). Those look great Penny. Did you make the pattern for those? Maybe I should make my own bags.

  13. Hi Penny, thanks for popping by my blog. I love visitors. Gorgeous bags, I can't believe the price of the postage overseas, certainly puts you off mailing stuff doesn't it?
