The J. Crew Challenge GIVEAWAY!!!
**UPDATE: Comments for this post have been closed.**
Fact: The nerd can’t sew.
Fact: The nerd begs friends to do the sewing for her.
Fact: My blog pal Deanna over at Recycled Lovelies is one of those friends.
It all started with a picture. See, Deanna is amazing because she takes thrifted clothes straight to her sewing machine and makes them modern again. She is quite often inspired by the J. Crew catalog. So I took a little internet vacay to the J. Crew catalog and found this:

And that’s when I decided to challenge Deanna to make this shirt! (Read her original response here.)
Well, friends, my homegirl not only took up this challenge by making herself this fantastic version of that shirt:

…but she made one for me as well!
BUT WAIT! THERE’S MORE!
Deanna sweetened the deal by offering to make a special shirt just for one of you lucky nerd readers!!!
Isn’t that freakin’ awesome-and-a-half!?!?!
All you have to do is leave a comment on this page (facebook and twitter don’t count) by 12 noon (central time) this Sunday, March 28th.
Bonus: Leave a comment on Deanna’s blog for a second entry!
The winner (chosen by random.org) will get a shirt in their own size and colors. Personalization at its best!
Please include the following in your comment: First name, email address, blog address (if you have one), colors you would like your shirt and flower to be.
Example:Evan, anerdlikeme (at) gmail (dot) com, anerdlikeme.com, Ivory shirt with lavender flowers
On your mark….get set….GO!!!!!
Happy voting nerds!
