Note 2: The first two entries are easy for anyone to answer. The third is just an extra entry. If you don’t have a Facebook account (or an account for whatever we are doing that month), then you still get two options to enter.

1. 1 entry – Share a favorite product from our website and suggest a use for it.
2. 1 entry – Tell us what you’d like to see a sewing-related tutorial about (repeat from last month, but we loved your ideas! Keep them coming!)
3. 3 entries – Follow us on Flickr (click here) and provide a link to your user name in the comments (will be verified) — you must leave three separate comments for this one so that they all count as separate entries.
Good luck, everyone! Contest ends Wednesday, February 26, 2014, at 10 a.m. MDT. Each entry may only be completed once by each entrant. Winner has 48 hours to respond to email notification or new winner will be drawn. Winner’s first and last name and city/state will be provided by winner for use on our site.
