And now, the giveaway I've been talking about...
You may have noticed my love for oliver + s patterns. I think the patterns are really lovely and unique compared to patterns in the market. So it's time to share the O+S love with you.
Here's what's up for grabs - 2 O+S patterns! One for the girls and one for the boys. They are both brand new and unopened.
Sandbox pants pattern and starfish pattern (Size 4, 5, 6, 7 & 8).Though this is a boys pattern, I think it would be fine for a girl too.
I have both these patterns myself and while I haven't made the boy pattern yet, I have made 2 of the swingset tops here and here. You can find out more about the sizing and difficulty rating here.
Here's how to enter :

Oooohhhh I love O+S patterns. Novy I would love the swing-set pattern. Thanks for the giveaway. I have mentioned the giveaway on my blog.
The Starfish and Sandbox pattern would be great for my boys who always seem to miss out!
I had never heard of O + S untill I came to crafty mamas. I would love the boys pattern as I don't sew much for my boy grandies due to lack of interesting patterns.
I will try to add you on my blog but this is all new to me and I hav'nt quite got the hang of adding yet.Thanks for the giveaway.

I'd like to enter for the boy pattern please!
So hard to pick one, both look fantastic, but I think the boys one would be perfect for my sandpit loving little Jai! I have linked this in my blog too, thanks Novy!!
They are both so adorable but I must say I need to make something special for my little boy. I have linked this in my blog too. Thankyou for being so generous.
What an awesome giveaway. I've been meaning to try one of their patterns for a while now. I have a son, so the boy's pattern is my pick. :)
I would love to have the little boy pattern.
rsgrandinetti@yahoo(dot)com
Oh yeah... you know what i like :-)
Particularly the girly one!
Thanks for a lurvely giveaway
I haven't made an Oliver and S pattern although have admired them for ages- they are just so nicely presented for a start! I would love the girls swing top pattern, so very lovely.
Thanks for the giveaway.

I have been waiting for this giveaway... I would so love to win an Oliver + S pattern. I haven't tried their patterns before, and they look so adorable. Please pick me to win the boys one! I have mentioned the giveaway on my blog.
Ohhh wow what a great giveaway!! I would love the boys pattern to make some things for nephews as i dont own any boy patterns yet (having only got 3 daughters!!)
Thanks!
Well obviously the girl one for me please. Great giveaway Novy
Oh! I would *love* to win the little boy pattern. It would be the incentive I need to make something that much nicer for my little man :) Thanks for the chance to win!
What a generous giveaway! It is a difficult choice, but I think I would like the Swingset tunic!
Another wonderful giveaway Novy! I would love the swingset pattern to make a gorgeous summer outfit for Miss M. I already have the sandbox pattern - fantastic pants! Have also mentioned the giveaway on my blog : )
I haven't tried O & S yet, but have admired your creations from them! It is so hard to choose which I would love best, but would have to say the starfish & sandbox as my little man tends to get left out at times as there are so many gorgeous girlie patterns!
Thanks for a wonderful giveaway!
Do I have to choose?? Ok, the boy's pattern because, as you said, it could be used for a girl too (I have one of each). And my daughter is Stella, so the starfish would be perfect for her!
Swingset tunic & skirt pattern would be lovely!!
oh nice giveaway....I'll blog it for you!
I don't know what I'm having so I'll say either one!
Awesome awesome giveaway. I'd have to say the girls one would be used quicker and more often in my house.
I love the Swingset tunic and skirt pattern!
The Starfish & Sandbox! My friends with sons are always begging me to make things for their boys, but I don't really have any cool patterns.
Thanks for having a giveaway... Oliver + S patterns are beautiful (as you know and have shown!). I would love to win the tunic and skirt pattern.
I am new to the scene and have not yet heard about O+S patterns --- they look devine though! I will have to check out more. I would love to go in the draw for the girls tunic & swing pattern --- I can just see my nieces in this. Thanks
they are so cute!!!
i do have a boy and a girl at home... but i have a nother boy thats going to be born in 2 monthes from now...
so 2 boys means that i shuld choose the boy pattern! thats more clothes to make!
and yes- i blogged about your giveaway

I have just discovered O+S patterns and have yet to make one. I would soooo love the girls swing-set!! I will mention you on my blog now. Thank you.

Both sets are nice and I have a boy and a girl! I sew lots of things for my daughter, so I'd like to win the boy set (if I have to pick!) so my poor son can get some more mama made stuff. I'm going to have to look into those patterns. they are adorable!
I checked out O & S site too, great patterns and nice and easy site to navigate, I found my local stockist too so I'll be making a special trip. The swing top is right up my ally!
Oooh! I've been eying the boy pattern for awhile. I wish there was more like this for boys!
I forgot to say that I blogged about your giveaway.
Hi Novy - I love all patterns, but the girl pattern is my favourite. I think the outfit is just adorable and I would love to make it for DD. I love summer sewing and can't wait to start. Thank you for the giveaway.
Ooh! I've been wanting the boy pattern for awhile now since mine is too tall for regular pants. I'll for sure let others now on my blog!
I can't decide! I have a boy so I will have to go with the boy pattern (even though the girl one is so very cute as well).
Great giveaway – would love the boy’s pattern. It would be wonderful addition to my pattern stash – particularly for the boys in my life. Susan
So adorable. I would love the girl pattern.
What a great giveaway!!

Cute patterns! I like the swingset pattern, but since I have mostly boys, I'd have to go with the boy/starfish pattern. Thanks for letting me know!
So sweet! Thanks for telling me about your giveaway! I think if I won, I'd want the boy pattern, for my two sons. My daughter has a closet full of clothes so she can miss out this time :)
Ohhhh - brilliant! I would LOVE, love, love to try the girls pattern! :) I haven't blogged yet, but I'll let you know if I get around to it! :) Thanks for the giveaway!
I would love the girl pattern. The shirt you made, actually both of them, are adorable! I think my 3 yr old will finally consent to wear something I make for her. I'll just have to make sure it's pink!

I like these patterns, I haven't bought any to try so this would be a great way to try one.
I would like the boy one, as it is so hard to find good boy patterns.
Those O+S patterns are so stinking cute! I would love the girl pattern. My two little girls would look adorable in them (if I do say so myself!) Thanks for the generous giveaway!
Wonderful giveaway! Thank you! It is so hard to find cool patterns for boys. This would be perfect for my little guy. Thank you again!

great patterns! I have been wanting to try the boys pattern for ages, love those pants:)
Wow, so generous of you. I would love to try the girl's pattern. Thank you.
Vicky (vy_huang@yahoo.com)
The boys pattern is so cute, and it is so hard to find unique "cute" clothing for little boys. I hope I win it!
I love them both! But I think I would choose the boys pattern too - perfect size and style for my little man.
Oooh. Sandbox pants. Asch would love some sandbox action - great giveaway. You have a lovely touch with fabric colours.
Well with three boys (two in the size range) and one girl. I have no idea which one to choose...I think the girl, because man is it fun to do girl things!! Thanks!
PS - I will tell others on my blog about this...thanks for coming to mine...
I have two girls and a boy, so would love to win either, but if I have to choose, I'll go boy, as my darling son doesn't see a lot of home made clothing now he's at school.
great giveaway!
Love Oliver+S !!!!
Would LOVE the Sandbox pattern & have linked you through my blog :)

Can be contacted at ikiscloth.blogspot.com
hello! just found your link from another blog and i would love a chance to win! i have never heard of this pattern before, but a little boy pattern is what i would use, don't seem to make much for my son because of lack of interesting boy patterns! i will try to post a link from my blog too to let others know, not sure how well it will get out there because i am new to the whole blog world, i am so behind times!!! thank you:)
Would Love the sandbox pants/starfish pattern...would be well utilised in for my 3 little men :-) I actually wanted to buy this recently, but went with something we needed more instead (the bedtime stories). Great giveaway!!
ooh that swingset tunic is the one pattern that I didn't have!
I have checked out the o+S patterns several times. I would love a chance to win the girl patter.
I would love to have the Swing set pattern!! I am on everything to do with crafting/ sewing/ anything fun "time out" from my husband! I have been wanting BOTH of those patterns, but can't seem to find them in an actual store. That way I can sneak 'em in without him noticing:) Since I wouldn't be using a card!
Thanks for always being such an inspiration!!
Luckydux@sbcglobal.net
I would love the Starfish and Sandbox pattern as my little boy seems to miss out on the cute patterns compared to my daughter. A common issue amongst all sewers ;)
You are so sweet to offer a giveaway.
What a fantastic giveaway Novy, so great that I have posted it on my blog to tell everyone about it. Silly me I posted it on my blog weeks before actually commenting to you.Anyway I would love the boys pattern for my son thboys pattern is delicious.
Thanks Again Aimée
Novy, what a great idea!!! I'd love the girl pattern and I'd love to mention this on my blog! Consider it done!
Have I missed the boat? Hopefully this giveaway is still open as I would love to be the lucky winner of an O + S pattern. If the Lazy Day Skirts are anything to go by, I'll be sewing lots of cute things by O+S in days to come. Ummmmm which pattern?? I would choose the boy pattern should I be lucky enough to win :-) I'm off to mention the giveaway now on my blog. Thanks, such a generous giveaway :-)
http://sewnewtothis.blogspot.com/
I'm on a mission to find exciting and different boys' clothes for my munchkin, so I'd love a copy of the boys' pattern! (Plus, I've been drooling over these patterns on blogs for a few months now)
I would really love the swingset tunic pattern. Thanks so much for this wonderful opportunity - it is really generous of you.
Okay, I thought for sure I had entered this but I don't see my name anywhere on the comments, so I guess I'll do it now!
I've never had an O+S pattern, but I have been eyeing them for some time! We are very girly around these parts, so would definitely go for the girl pattern.
thanks for the great giveaway!
oh wow! I would love the girls pattern! SO cute.
I would love to win the girls pattern - so sweet! :o)
Great giveaway! Thank you!
I'd love to win the boy's pattern, I have a godsun and would love to make them for him!!
Thank you for being so generous!
Hugs,
Sandy-
I have several O&S patterns and I adore them!! I would love to have the boy pattern --- I've been wanting it for ages.
I would love the girls pattern!
Thank you so very generous :)
Oh, I can't decide! Boy of 8 is yet to have any sewing done for him, but I have 3 girls (value for money in a girl pattern). Okay, go the girl pattern, I'm more likely to sew it. Thanks for the great offer!
