Another Fabric + Pattern Giveaway ((closed))

*There is an update located at the bottom of the post.

Well, originally this giveaway was going to only be on Facebook, but after doing a little digging, I found out that you cannot host giveaways on Facebook.  I had seen many giveaways before on my personal feed on Facebook, so I thought I could host one.  Facebook has some very strict rules, and out of fear of losing my account and wanting to comply, I am hosting it on the blog. 

I need help spreading the word about my new paper piecing pattern, and as a thank you to my Facebook readers for keeping up with my crazy life, I am giving away a bundle of the new Sun Print Feathers by Alison Glass in every color!

This giveaway will require a Facebook account.  Don't have a Facebook account?  I still have another great giveaway going on over here.  There will be 20 winners, and the giveaway ends October 3.   Some fabulous fabric shops like Fat Quarter ShopMaze & ValeMina PrintsTactile Fabrics, and Poppyseed Fabrics are giving away fabric, and every winner will receive my wonky triangles pattern.  






Rules for this giveaway to be entered for the prize  :


  • The only mandatory entry is to spread the word about my wonky triangles pattern on Facebook by sharing the photo above, tagging @owen'solivia (( my fan page link should pop up just like you were mentioning a friend in a post ))  and telling me what you would love to make using my pattern.
  • To help spread the word, you can enter this giveaway daily!!!  
  • Sharing this giveaway must be done between 9/28 - 10/3, and you cannot re-enter yesterday's URL post to enter today when entering daily.
  • Giveaway will end Oct 3. 11:59 PM EST.  Winner will be announced on the blog and emailed.  Winner has 48 hours to claim the prize before a new winner is selected.

Good luck!

Update:
I was getting a few questions about the URL and the @ symbol.  I have taken screen shots, and I hope this helps!  Just let me know if you have any other questions.

Why use @?  Using this just helps your readers click on my link within your post instead of having to open a new window and type "owen's olivia" into the search bar.  It just makes things easier for your friends to find me.  :)

When typing your status and adding the @owen'solivia (There was one typo, which was my fault.  I forgot the apostrophe!), my page should come up like this.



The same would go for any other business.  Here I typed @net and it suggested several businesses for me.




To get the URL, you click on the photo you posted after publishing it.  It will take you to a larger page where on the right hand side you can see comments.




I hope that helps!  Don't worry if you entered yesterday and wasn't able to get the URL.  I'm just trying to avoid duplicate entries, if that makes any sense.  I apologize if you were confused.

Thank you for taking the time to help spread the word about my new pattern.  You will love it, and these fabrics are GORGEOUS!!!

  3. I don't think I understand how to get the URL of a shared link on fb. I just gave the URL of my page, was that right? Is there some other way to get the URL of ONLY the shared link?

  5. there's an easier way to get the URL - if you share it on facebook, there will be a "time stamp" under your post (ex. 6 hours ago, etc.) That is a link to the URL - so if you right click on it, then copy it, it should work for you.
