Need fabric? Enjoy pretty things? Wish you were in Paris....or at the beach? Then welcome to Maisonette.

Oh my.
I honestly don't know where to start.....other than.....
Every time I click on the Maisonette site I feel like I'm sitting at a Parisian bistro, hanging out with sewing friends and chatting about fabric. Care to join me?
First we'll start in this room:



They have Patterns, Books, Art, Jewelry,





It's run by Ava and her two daughters. Natalie is the photographer and Madeline is the seamstress. And together, the three woman have created a complete oasis for sewers or anyone with a creative flair. Maisonette can be summed up in one word: charming.
They have:
* a wonderful fabric selection from the latest designers
* Books and Patterns
* Notions, trims, threads, etc.
* In-house photography studio
* local Art and handmade Jewelry
* Sewing room for their classes
* a deck out back where you can sew outside!
Of course you don't need to live near their shop to enjoy the benefits. Their online site has everything you need!
And while you're there, check out the Masionette blog and even their small etsy shop with ready-made clothing and trims.


There will be TWO winners.
Winner #1 - Pretty Ditty Apron Pattern PLUS 2 yards of fabric (you can choose from their shop)
Winner #2 - Anna Maria Horner's new book Handmade Beginnings. (and for a great conversation with Anna, check out Meg's interview on Sew Liberated.)
Winner EVERYONE - Right now Maisonette is offering a 20% discount to MADE readers
All you need to do is enter: EXTRA20 in the discount code spot at checkout. for the duration of the giveaway. TWENTY % off!


* Leave a comment! That's it.
* Leave you EMAIL ADDRESS in your comment.
* Only ONE entry per person.
* If you forget something and need to leave a second comment, go back and DELETE your first comment.
* Open to anyone with a normal address in the world.
* There will be TWO winners.
* Giveaway ends THURSDAY 6/3 at 10pm (Central Time).
Come play with us!
And if you're ready to shop, head over and snag 20% off your entire purchase!
(enter EXTRA20 in the discount spot at checkout)

For just a second I thought I read Oceano (which is very close to me) instead of Oceanside! Well at least I can order online. What a darling shop and how fun to wander from room to room. I would be in heaven! snappelina@gmail.com
I want to go south and spend a few days there. ;)

Oh, I love little shops like that! I think most people just aren't looking for them, because I live in Iowa city and there are two cute little sewing shops in my town. I guess they're not quite as adorable as that one, though! I would LOVE to win either of these prizes.
Whoa, what a fabulous looking store! And, great giveaway items too!!! lkrynock@earthlink.net
