 BAG GIVEAWAY:

2) Extra entry (new comment) for sharing on Facebook, Twitter, G+, etc.  Tell me how you shared!

      I follow you on Facebook & Pinterest. I also receive your newsletters. I have bought some of your patterns and purchasing the Tear Drop as soon as I finish writing. I absolutely adore the bowling bag, although I don't bowl (ha) I could give it as a gift or use it for myself just not as a bowling bag. Thank you for all your effort to bring us new patterns & ideas.
