And we have a winner! Mary-Frances C. Congratulations!
A few weeks ago, the very nice people at Venus Ribbon offered to send me 10 yards of the ribbon of my choice as well as 10 yards for one of my readers. I love ribbon and because I’m trying to learn to sew, I was thrilled by this! When I visited the site I was overwhelmed by all the gorgeous choices! First I thought I’d like the Groovy Peace but then I thought maybe I should get something more musical or maybe the Pink Denim (!) or maybe one with dots, or ladybugs, I love ladybugs! Really, there are so many unbelievable choices that it was hard to pick just one.
In the end, I went with Groovy Peace because I happen to have fabric that matches it and I thought it would be fun to do maybe a bag with ribbon trim and a headband to match, or a sundress with ribbon trim at the hem, or just tie it up into a couple of big bows and adorn things with them in my living room, because it really is so pretty that I want to look at it all the time. Then I took a deep breath.
When I received the ribbon I was so impressed, it’s a lovely ribbed, soft grosgrain with really vibrant colors and while I still haven’t decided what I’m going to do with it, I didn’t want you to have to wait. Maybe I’ll get something done before the end of this contest which, by the way, will run until Friday June 18th at 11:59 PM. I’ll choose a random winner on Saturday June 19.

I would choose the Stripes Black Grosgrain Ribbon in Hot Pink and Black. I would use it to make bows and dresses for my girls.

I would love the chocolate grosgrain ribbon and I would use for tie on a cute little girl sundress and matching bows

My fave: Reversible Stripe Polka Dot Grosgrain Ribbon. I love black and white anything, and I would probably use it to tie up little gift packages — I love bundling gifts, too. Or maybe for the bottoms of little girl french braids.
