I'll spare you the details - non-confirmation of a subscription (a Christmas present from my lovely Mum - thank you very much, Mum) and impatience on my part being the component parts - but I've ended up with two copies of Sew Hip issue 3. So I thought I'd offer one as a giveaway.
There are some great sewing projects, including this rather splendid hippo.
A Union Jack pillow
And, right up my street, a knitting bag made from charity shop material.
There is also a pattern to make the skirt on the cover, an interview with Hilary Lang of Wee Wonderfuls and loads of other great articles and ideas. If you'd like to enter the giveaway please leave a comment on this post. I'll draw a name from the 'virtual hat' on Saturday 17th January. I'm happy to post anywhere in the world.
I'd love to be entered into the draw for your giveaway please.

I looked for this magazine in the big town newsagents but sadly they didn't have it in.
The union jack cushion looks an interesting make - so popular right now.

I feel like a greedy guts entering this so soon after winning the fab knitting book but I've been intrigued by Sew Hip since I heard about it and as far as I can see it's not available in Australia yet...

Oh yes please! Maybe this will help me with my er knitting performance issues? I wish they'd do a feature on someone trying to learn to craft/sew/knit - I'd really love that, because I'm pretty useless!!!

Looks like such a fab magazine-I'm saving up for my first sewing machine so will definately have a look out for it once I've finally bought my machine!

Please include me in your draw. I considered getting a subscription to this magazine when you mentioned it before, but I haven't seen a copy in any local newsagents.
Re your previous post, I liked the coffee coloured cotton - have you considered knitting the two colours together? I love this little pattern: http://knittingonthenet.com/patterns/clothillusion.htm

I thought I'd commented once but it doesn't seem to be here. Anyway, thanks for the generous giveaway. I bought the first 2 issues of Sew Hip and would love to win the third one. Please enter me in the draw. Love your blog and ethos for life. Very similar to what I try to do.
