I just wanted to make a quick announcement that I’ll be hosting a Necessary Clutch Wallet sewalong here on the blog, starting June 15, 2015. The Necessary Clutch Wallet, affectionately known as the NCW, is an Emmaline Bags pattern. I love having Canadian designers featured on my site, so I was thrilled when Janelle of Emmaline offered a 20% pattern discount to sewalong participants, and even more pleased when she asked if I wanted to have a prize and is generously offering up a $20 Emmaline Bags store credit for a randomly drawn NCW completed during the sewalong. The sewalong will be completed over multiple posts and days and is the perfect opportunity for anyone who has been eyeing up the pattern, but just hasn’t taken the next step to start it. It’s also great for anyone who has made a few or even many! What I love about this pattern is that there are so many variations and ways to make the clutch unique. All details for entering into the draw for the prize will be posted at a later date. For now, go get yourself the pattern, and use the discount CANUCK20 to save 20% on the Necessary Clutch Wallet pattern, and gather your supplies and fabric. Emmaline Bags also sells beautiful, high quality hardware and interfacing for the NCW.  We’ll see you back here on the 15th!
