#PINspiredPIRATES :: A Monthly Sewing Contest!

January 6, 2016

Wahoo!  Patterns for Pirates is officially launching a new social media contest!

Now that you’re in the addicting world of self-care sewing, you realize how easy it is to be inspired (or “pin”spired, rather) by things you see all over the internet.  Or even in the store as you’re browsing.  I cannot tell you how many times I’ve inspected a shirt in a store (or even taken a quick picture of it), just so I could go home and recreate it myself.

The girls at Patterns for Pirates are here to enable your self-care sewing habits even more!

It’s easy to enter, too!

Step 1: Sew something, using a P4P pattern of course, that you’ve drawn inspiration from.  Inspiration can come from anywhere…a pin on Pinterest, something in a boutique shop, a shirt you saw at Target, a stranger passing by, etc.
Step 2: Take a picture of yourself rocking it.
Step 3: Post it on Instagram, using the tag: #PinspiredPirates  Be sure to tell us which P4P pattern you used and the thing you were inspired by!  (Don’t have an IG account?  Go ahead and share it on P4P’s Facebook group, still using #PinspiredPirates and we will count that as an entry as well.)
Step 4: Repeat steps 1-3 as many times as possible, just because you can!

At the end of the month, a winner will be chosen!  Not only will said winner be featured on this blog, BUT they will also be awarded a P4P pattern of their choice!

How about that?  Easy, fun, inspired and fun.  (Did I say fun already?)
Happy sewing!  Can’t wait to see what you make!

    Can you qualify for an entry if you use someone else’s tutorial, which was inspired by Pinterest, and they didn’t use a P4P pattern but you did?
