I won!!!

I was so excited to find out this afternoon that I actually won a giveaway! When over 600 people enter, you don't actually expect to win. But I did! And Beth over at WeePereas, who hosted the giveaway, was kind enough to post a link to my blog on her page. (It's kind of exciting seeing my own picture on my blog list to the left!) I am feeling slightly shy yet excited about the idea of my little blog being viewed by bloggers at large. So, if you're one of those people who are new to my Jubilee Life, Welcome! It's good to have you. This is a little introduction to how and why this blog got started.

So, the giveaway I won was part of Celebrate The Boy, a month devoted to fabulous boy-related crafty projects put on by Dana at Made and Rae at Made-By-Rae. Check out the awesome prize I won from Beth's shop:

I get the PDF pattern to sew these adorable baby shoes, along with a DIY kit including pre-cut fabric and supplies to make four pairs! Being that it's a Celebrate The Boy giveaway, I get to choose from these wonderfully boyish patterns. I may not have a little boy (yet), but by next year at this time, who knows? The next little one to come along could be wearing these! (And if not, I know there will plenty of other little guys in my life who would love to have these. Plus, I get the pattern, so girly-shoes are always an option too!) I haven't chosen my four yet, but here are the patterns I've been eyeing:

LOVE!! This will definitely be one of my picks.
I could easily see a girl or boy sporting these.

Love the little retro astronauts juxtaposed
with the earthtone background! Awesome.

Wonderfully classic rocketships. The colors are fabulous.

Hippos. Enough said. (She has this fabric in pink too! Adorable.)

Thanks, Beth, for hosting this giveaway! I am so excited to make these shoes!
