Sorry about the delay in posting, it’s been a long Labor Day weekend at my house, and not the good kind - I’ve been sick in bed. But, I’m feeling better and I’m ready to start a new Giveaway! Each week this month I’ll be giving away panda prizes to celebrate PerfectPandas.com turning 1 year old! (And, this week me turning 29 on Thursday… we won’t dwell on that though. Almost 30! Eeep!)
This week, I’ve decided to go crafty! I saw these three patterns at my local fabric store and fell in love. So much so I had to buy a few extra to give away!
#1 Pattern 2783 – Just in time for Halloween!
#2 Pattern 3662 -TOO CUTE! I want one, too. Ha!
#3 Pattern 3787 – Will the winner please make me one?! Adorable!
*** To win, leave a comment on this post by Midnight EST on Sunday, September 7th with the pattern you like the best and what you’d do with it. That’s it! I’ll randomly select three winners! Each winner will receive one pattern. Hopefully things work out nicely and the winners each get a pattern they like, but no guarantees. 
The next giveaway will be announced on Monday, September 8th!
Good luck everyone!
How cute! I love them all and would be happy with any, but my favorite is #2. I’d love, love, love to make that dress for my daughter. In fact, I’d love to make ALL of the dresses from that pattern for her.
Thanks for all the giveaways, they’re great!

awe, aren’t you sweet giving away patterns
I have been thinking about making gifts for folks in local nursing homes that don’t have families this year for Christmas. Teddy bears would be a really cute addition to the said packages, I could even make cute little clothes to put on them! I’ve been wanting to get a pattern so I could learn (I’ve never made a 3 demensional stuffed animal before) and these are really cute, classic bears. I would love to be the winner of that pattern
Oh, and happy birthday! Of course I’d make you a bear if I get my paws on this pattern ;0)

What a wonderful idea, and very good of you to give them away!
My roommate is OBSESSED with Pandas, so I have to sign my name up for the third pattern! I would love to make a couple of those little guys.
Thank you!

I’ve been looking all over for a panda costume for my 9-month old. She would look super adorable all dressed up. So pattern number one would rule!

Congratulations on the site!
I would love the costume pattern for my daughter. She’ll be turning one the day before Halloween! She’ll have a double celebration.

Congratulations on your site’s birthday (and yours as well)! I am getting close to that 30 mark too, so I know how you feel.
The little girl dresses are just adorable! I would love to make them for my daughter (who just turned 3 today!). She also loves purses, so I’d be making her a bunch of those as well.
This is such a generous offer!
Congratulations again =)

Oooh, we already have our Hall’ween costumes made, but I have a little girl made for those dresses – or is it the other way around? I love the bears, too! What a wonderful giveaway! Thank you! (Whew, that was a lot of exclamation points!!! Ha.)

All the patterns are adorable! I especially like #2 and would love to make a dress for my daughter and I can even see a matching jumper with panda for her twin brother.
I love pandas too. I even remember writing a story back in 7th grade (ages ago) about how the panda became black and white. We were doing a unit on ‘How the ..’ legend stories. The little panda was supposed to take a nap, but he disobeyed his mother and went outside to play. He walked under a ladder and tipped over the white paint bucket his mother was using to paint the house. As punishment for disobeying, the gods would not allow the paint to be washed off and from that day on all pandas were both white and black to remind them to be obedient.
Silly story, but I sure thought it was awesome at the time.

I love them all but #3 is my favorite! I’d love to just cover my bed with all those fuzzy friends. And I’d stuff them with lots of love and then use them in our police/ambulance mission where they give stuffies to kids they have to pick up. I don’t know that I would ever stop once I started making them!

Aww, the little girl dresses are my favourites! So cute!

Pick me! We’re expecting our first (likely only) baby in November, and her nursery theme is pandas (black/white with red accents). She would be TOO cute in the costume or dress!
(When she gets a little bigger, of course.)

OMG I absolutely love #3 (Pattern 3787). Pandas have been my favorite animals since I was about 9. I have just recently ventured into making stuffies and would love to give that pattern a try. Luckily I’m from a big family, so there are lots of little cousins around to give the completed crafts to.

OMG! I loove the halloween costumes!
I have a 6 month old boy, so this is my first halloween with a baby and I’m looking forward to making him a costume this year. So that pattern would RULE to have.
Also, I have a niece and nephew that are 8 months old ( twins) so I could do the angel/devil thing!!!
Aww I lvoe halloween

Happy Birthday and Blogiversary!
Such adorable panda-rific patterns
I would choose #3, Pattern 3787.
I started making jointed stuffed toys this year, but have never made a bear. I would love to make some of those huggable creatures and send them to one of the street kid homes in Romania that my charity works with.
Pandas (all bears really) appeal to boys and girls of all ages and nationalities, and having a soft someone to call their own helps every child.
I think I will buy this pattern if I dont win it – it is so cute!

As you can see I’m not your average computer geek, but I’m a grandmother and would love to sew the bears for my grandsons (we don’t know how to make girls, I had 3 sons. Hope to be one of the chosen ones… so I can sew at night when sleep eludes me, instead of surfing the net and the crafster’s website> Thanks
