I've got a lil' giveaway to share with you today! A couple of books to celebrate my 200th post! Yay!"Dance" is an 'American Girl' book I've illustrated a while ago. Here it is... finally out in print! If you have (or know) a young girl (7 to 10y.o.) that enjoys dancing - this book is for her! It's an introduction to dance. Leave me a comment and I will announce a couple of winners on Monday morning, September 15th.
P.S.: Thank you all for your help with my difficult pattern choice. I've chosen 6 (with your help) and am ordering a 1/2 yard of each. If you are curious... the choices are: 1,3,7,14,15&17. Boy, I really wish I could choose them all...

I think it's so important that you read to children almost immediately once they're out of the womb. And, to see your beautiful illustrations in a book that could be suitable for my daughter who loves to dance is awesome! I hope I am a lucky recipient.
Congratulations on your 200th post!! How awesome!! :)
I'm expecting for the first time at the end of the year and even though we didn't find out the sex, my intuition says it's going to be a girl! This book would be a great one to read to my tummy and keep for when she grows older.
congrats on your 200th post and on your impending lovely fabrics... can't wait to see what you make with them!
Roo loves to dance, so I hope we win.
I'm glad my favorite fabric made it onto your final list! (although I had a hard time choosing) Great choices. :-) My daughter started dancing this summer - and now that's all life is for her. She LOVES it! I'm working on a ballet bag for her shoes tonight. :-)
I love your artwork. So I hope I win!
My little dancing princess would love this book. Congrats on #200!! Thanks for the great giveaway.
Blessings,

I have a lil bub who will enter this world January next year. While she is in my belly I can already tell that she has picked up the dancing gene from me. So I would love to share this colourful book with her.
Congratulations on the publication.
Congrats on your 200th Post! Your work is beautiful. I'd love to give that book to my little half-sister- who is turning six and is the dancingest person i know. Her birthday is later this month and I think those pretty illustrations would go great with the dance party we are going to have for her!
Thanks again for the beautiful blog.

Well, I didn't leave a suggestion for fabric choices, but it's as if I did. Your choices are just what I would have said. All such lovely patterns!
I love your illustrations. I am also a dancer :)
Hello,
I was always shy to leave a comment, but since I worship your illustrations and I have a little girl that LOVES TO DANCE, I've decided to try!
She's my italian little neighbor and her name's Giulia!

Hey, that's perfect, I have two girls that love to dance! ...And I live in a town where dance class means lipstick and pompoms......baton anyone? I think it's the college football culture here.
Anyway, I love your work and I'm so happy to see how often you are popping up all over the web these days - well deserved attention!
congratulations on the book, on your 200th post, and on your fabric choices!!!
(think i could get some of #17??)

Congratulations! I love everything that you do!
If I don't win this book, I will have to go buy it. I would love a book for my girls with your illustrations. You can never have too many books!
two of my nieces would go crazy over your american girl dance book! they are dancin' machines -- as well as american girl doll collectors. last year, the highlight of all highlights for them was going to the american girl store in chicago... pure magic :)

It's a 3-girl house here...the book would be very welcome here! Would love to see how the fabric turns out...

Congratulations on your 200th post! My little girl would adore this book, she enjoys your illustrations almost as much as I do. Many thanks for the giveaway!
I know a little girl, my bf's niece. She hasn't had the best life, but I hope for her sake she doesn't understand what's gone on...She loves to sing & dance. I'm sure this would make a great book for her.
Congrats on your 200th post.
7 & 17 are sure to be big sellers!!!! Love 9, too, but it's not on the lsit.
I just love your work!!! I didn't know you had fabric!!!!
Wow! 200th post! So thankful for all 200 of them. My girls (all 4 of them, thank you very much!) are all big American Girl fans. And my Lucy & Libby Scout can dance till the cows come home! Congrats on the fabulous fabric designs you have created by the way...one after the other beautiful!
oh again how happy I am to find you...you have jumped to my number one spot on my blogs to read list!
Congrats on 200 posts! The fabric will be fun too!
