Hand-Made Scrunched Seam Binding

I just love hand-made scrunched seam binding.  Enough is never enough, and you can never have too many colors of it, either.  I'm doing a special give-away of this sampling of seven different colors of scrunched seam binding.


The sweet and talented Melissa Phillips has been kind enough to mention my blog/and give-away on her awesome page http://www.lilybeanpaperie.typepad.com/ so that all you have to do in order to be entered to win is:
1.  Become a follower of my blog (if you aren't already)
2.  Leave a comment on this post  (please mention if you found my blog/the give-away from Melissa's referral).  All those who comment on the post will be entered to win; providing you are a follower.

I am so grateful for all my followers.  I want to say thank you, from the bottom of my heart, to all of you for following,  and for stopping by.  I will end this give-away on August 8, and post the winner in the following day or two.  I am happy to visit your blog as well.  Just leave a note where I can find you.

Thanks again, and good luck!
Karen
