May Giveaway Day celebrates handmade items and the supplies used to make them. For a list of all blogs and shops participating, please see the Sew, Mama, Sew! website.
Dates: The poetry slam will be open on this website (embroidery-methods.com) from May 14-21, 2010. The deadline for submissions is Friday, May 21, 2001, at 9am Eastern Daylight Time. Judging will be based on creativity, construction, and my personal opinion. All accepted submissions will appear on this page after they are approved. I will choose a winner on Friday and notify the winner by email. The winner must write back his/her choice of prize. The email link to the prize download will be sent on the afternoon of Monday, May 24, 2010.
Prize: Your choice of one downloadable pattern program from
ALC Unlimited, retail value $4.95-$9.95. Please note that these patterns are all for hand embroidery or free motion machine embroidery. The winning poem and poet will also be featured in next month's
Embroidery Sampler e-zine.
Note: If you would like to win machine embroidery patterns, EVERYONE who contributes a
sewing machine review with your email address listed (I'll keep it private) will receive links to free patterns!

Any poetry style is fine, too, whether it be sonnet, hiaku, or limerick! No more than 16 lines please, and the poem must be in English.
