A Week Of Blogging and Patch Giveaway!

First this morning I have a sad announcement! My beloved friend Monkey the goldfish has past on to fishy heaven. Please a moment of silence in honor of his passing. :)

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

WOW, the patches have been really popular! Thank you all for your support on this project. I have started sewing them to tank tops and scarves and I think they are going to be really great! To celebrate one week of blogging and the launch of my patches I am going to be doing a giveaway!!! I will be giving one lucky Minggus and Moob blog follower an iron patch just for being there on the other side of this blog!

To get in on this giveaway all you have to do is follow this blog and our twitter profile!

Once you have done this (or if you are already doing this) 

send me an email saying you are following the 

blog and twitter and I will enter you in the giveaway! THAT'S IT!!! Piece of cake. I will be doing the drawing for the winner on Friday, April 9th.

I have had so much fun with all of you this first amazing week of blogging! Thanks for your comments and queries about my life.  I wanted to take the time to brag about some wonderful 

friends that I have made this week; who have given me great blog advice, and show off some of the wonderful creativity in their lives.

 From the wonderful advice of these friends I was also able to help my sister Sydney start a blog. Sydney is a very talented make-up artist. She does airbrushing, theatrical make-up, runway make-up, and weddings!

Check out Sydney's blog here:

Patchwork Perfection And Simple Pleasures

Amy's sweet little self.

 So whats in a blog post title you might ask yourself? In the case of this particular one lots of laughter and brainstorming! As a new blogger I tend to focus to long on things like the title of my post and then I share my wonderful idea with a friend and they hold back a giggle! Does anyone else get this particular form of support? :) I have this wonderful cheesy quality about myself that sometimes goes to the extreme as I try to be catchy. So that you understand what I'm speaking of here are some wonderful title runner ups for your reading pleasure: "Patchwork Dreams", "Patchwork Orange", "Pretty Patchies", "Patches and Cream", "Pleasing Patchery", and "Patchwork: Amazing" (just to mention a few). So with the help of my very talented friend Amy J. we settled on this title and I kinda like it..don't you?

Minggus and Moob you've never looked so good!

Amy J. is one of those great friends that you don't know how you lived your sweet little life without nor do you care to remember! Amy has helped quite a bit through out my Minggus and Moob adventure. She models for my product shots, always gets the perfect amount excited when I show her something new that I'm working on, and she has so faithfully sewn patches and applique for my shop! This week she has come to visit me and my husband and I wanted to show you the little treasures she created for all of us to enjoy.

Big and small I adore them all!!

I will be using these cute patches on tank tops, purses, scarves, and selling them "as is" for you to create your own Minggus and Moob accessories and apparel.  Look for all of these sweet little guys for sale at the shop in about a week. I will post an announcement when they are available!
