Whimsy Couture Review.....AND My WINNER!!

And the WINNER of my lil' Giveaway is Chantel of My Thoughts and Treasures  !!!! WHOOHOOO Congratulations:)


Today, I am going to review the "Knot Dress"  from Whimsy Couture. First, let me say "I purchased this pattern(on ebay) and Am NOT receiving any form of compensation for this review. This review is entirely My Personal OPINION." Does that sound official, OR what???
Yes, I put that statement together myself.....ARE you proud of me?{{{grin}}}

These dresses are so wonderful to wear over peasant tops and dresses (listed as PEASANT TOPS/DRESSES PATTERN) or over t-shirts. These dresses can also be worn without any tops underneath for Summer! They have knot ties for perfect fit and a straight/plain back. It's a great essential in her wardrobe and perfect for hot days!

(Description by Whimsy Couture )

I LUV this dress! This is why:

MULTIPLE sizes

VARIATIONS

LAYERABILITY (is that a word??)

TOTAL cuteness

SUPER easy!

One of the great things about this pattern is it's MAKER! She offered EXCELLENT 5 star SERVICE with VERY fast shipping. I bought the paper copy on ebay. However, She's got some awesome deals on her Etsy. The dress is available from 6months to size 12 girls.  Whimsy Couture  ALSO gives you the right to SELL on ebay/etsy or locally. AT NO ADDITIONAL cost!!!! HOW Sweet is that????  The tuturial  is easy to follow and loaded with pictures. I simply could not ask for anything more from a pattern!  I am SO coveting(ya know what I mean:)  her other patterns! When you visit her Blog you will also find some great free tutorials.  And  Now for some pics of the Goose.....

What can I say...... OH

THAT'S MY GIRL!

So, I would like to say a Big Fat Thank YOU to Whimsy Couture for a Rockin pattern!

And My Proverb of the Day

Proverbs 2:7 He holds victory in store for the upright, he is a shield to those whose walk is blameless.

What does this speak to Me??

There is VICTORY waiting for me. Whether it is on this earth or in heaven, I am assured it IS waiting!

He is my SHIELD. He protects me from Satan and demonic activity, from EVIL.

My walk is BLAMELESS.  No I don't claim to be perfect. I CLAIM the ONE WHO IS! His Blood has covered my sin and selfishness,  my filth and my shame. 

I am humbled with gratitude!!

What do you think?

Happy Friday:)

Small Treasure Tuesday Fall LUV

One of my fav things about TUESDAY is.....Small Treasure Tuesday with Chantal  at My Thoughts and Treasures! 

While this may only be a MINOR treasure to some, it is a HUGE treasure to ME!!! Last week we attended the first "tailgate" party of the season...WHOOOHOOOO:) (actually, the kickoff for our fall schedule at FBCSt.Cloud)  3generations of our family attended. It was a lot of fun! So, Today I'm thankful for this time of year!! CUZ I {{{LuV}}} me some football:) ,

Can't tell WE are STEELER fans can ya??? 

And I am excited about the new class I'll be taking. The book is called "The Frazzled Female". Not sure if any of us can RELATE(Grin)! It's the new Wednesday night Ladies class at church!
PS The GIVEAWAY ends AT MIDNIGHT!


Finally, My Proverbs Verse of the Day:
Prov. 31:13
She selects wool and flax and works with eager hands.

While I don't exactly work with "wool and flax" I do have WORK to do. Granted it mainly consists of HOUSEWORK and Childcare (Goose), but it IS work! I'm sure you agree:)  I think God's Word is reminding me to go about my day "with eager hands". Perhaps it would help if I started looking at the impact my life has on those in my little world. Of the importance of Child Rearing and the lessons I am teaching her, throughout the day. I must confess, I am not always Eager to jump into the things that must be done. I hope this verse will come to mind the next time I start to feel that way! How about you??
Happy Tuesday
