Around the Net: Indian Block Company (entry 85)

Has anyone heard of The Indian Block Company? Has anyone used them?

For whatever reason, I receive their email notifications and they are always interesting, the one person I can think of is Ruthann as she does so many paper crafts along with a multitude of other things like stamping, knitting, soft blocking 🙂

If you have any feedback I would love to hear from you as I’m curious about this stuff – thanks

Until next time, have a happy and creative day, 

Around the Net: The Quilting Blog (entry 81)

Hi Everyone, today I would like to announce a site we’ve been working on for a while now called The Quilting Blog, it’s the ultimate one-stop-reading destination for quilters and sewers. So grab a cup of Quilters Tea and enjoy spending the day here together.

 

I initially came up with this idea because I read so many blogs by a boring RSS feed and I wanted a better and more enjoyable way to review and read them in a pretty layout with a glimpse of each entry and a way to get back to the main blog to leave a comment (isn’t that the best part?)

I love the colour yellow and for those of you who follow me on a regular basis have seen pictures of my new studio which was inspired by the colours of The Quilting Blog.

There is already a pretty good rolling list of blogs in there which are being updated and added to all the time including some of my favourites and they are being seen by thousands of monthly readers.

When you submit your blog please take a copy of our button to add to your own blog, that would be sew great to spread the word and collect as many blogs as we can!!  


Thank you to all of my wonderful followers for joining in!! Please also visit The Quilting blog on Facebook and Twitter.

Until next time….

Around the Net (entry 77)

Hi Ladies, short but sweet today as I’m in the process of still painting, contractor is here putting up baseboards, door and window trims etc. I’m sore from head to toe lol but loving how everything is coming together.

Around the Net this week is on The Purl Bee, it’s one of the nicest sights I’ve come upon for their blog & store (even though they are somewhat my competition, I really like them lol) They have the greatest blog full of good patterns, interesting jibber jabber and so much more, I love their style and if I lived in New York I’d be a devoted visitor of their store. Here’s the graphic from their front page – can you say adorable!!

This image is also from their site, one of their recent projects – so pretty.

Enjoy, and until next time have a happy and creative day,

PS it’s snowed here last night and this morning, great more of the really white stuff, winter wonderland again…warm day though which is the best!
