By supporting me here, and purchasing one of these books on this site, I will email you a free pattern for my Sailboat Poncho, a $7 value!   

If you buy both books, I will also send a free pattern for my Love and Stars Hat. This is a big help to me, and I like to share the patterns in return for your support!
Your order will also include an original watercolor blank greeting card and envelope.

Thank you for supporting a local business.
