To celebrate the 4th anniversary of my blog AND my participation in the 1912 Titanic sewing project at the same time, I will be giving away:
(a) 4 year-long memberships to the Vintage Pattern Lending Library - so that you can try some of the 1912 patterns for yourself!
AND
(b) 4 books on historical fashion sewing. And not just any books - but books by Frances Grimble, a leading author in this area. Here are just some of her covers:

or even on (cue gasp) amazon.com! ;)
Each of the four, randomly drawn winners will get an annual membership to the Vintage Pattern Lending Library AND be able to select the Frances Grimble book of her (or his) choice.
To enter, just leave a comment on this post with your name, before midnight EST on 17 March 2012 (next Saturday).
Good luck to everyone!
And extra special thanks to those of you who have been with me since the beginning... :)

I am so very very VERY interested! Congratulations on the four years!
I came across your blog through the 1912 Project & have enjoyed reading your posts. Happy Blog Birthday !!
Happy anniversary Gwen!!!
Happy birthday.
Isn't the 1912 project fun!
I am loving these patterns! They are cut so well. 1912 was a great year for fashion, and I'm betting this library has other great years.
What a fantastic Give-Away and congratulations on your 4-year Anniversary. I finally received my first pattern (princess slip) for the VPLL 1912 project and am looking forward to working on that and viewing everyone's progress as we encounter the new patterns. Still hoping for a group pattern soon. I actually just received a Frances Grimble book in the mail the other day. They are wonderful books and this is such a generous give-away. Good Luck to all and with your work on the project too!
HI! So very generous of you, and congrats on being 4 blogging years old!
