Out of 67 comments, the winner of the handmade earrings giveaway, chosen by Random.org, is #6 Sally Ness: “I’m a big fan of all three pairs on the orange, yellow, green trio! Quite tasteful, Linds.”

I’m so excited for Sally to win these earrings, as she was the very first person to buy a pair from my new Esty storefront. Huge thanks to everyone who entered and gave feedback on your favorites! The 40% off code CRAFTBUDS is still good through the end of the day today.

Hi, I’m Lindsay Conner, an author, modern quilter, editor, and founder of the Lindsay Sews blog. I’m a Baby Lock ambassador and Stash Books author who loves writing modern sewing and quilt patterns for beginners and weekend sewists! I live in Indianapolis, Indiana with my husband, son, and two loveable cats, Murph and Chloe. I’ve been crafting for as long as I can remember. As a kid, I saved my dollar bills for trips with my mom to Jo-Ann Fabrics, where I’d find new floss for friendship bracelets or mini cross-stitch kits. Because my mom has always shared my love for crafting, she bought me my first sewing machine, a Hello Kitty Janome.

    I’m just catching up with blog reading after the holiday so I missed out on the giveaway, but still wanted to say congrats on the new storefront! Just checked it out and it looks great. Cheers!
