Tag, I'm it... and a little blog makeover

The gorgeous and talented Bethany tagged me in the handwriting meme.

Bethany is my handmade bag hero from Philidelphia, her sewing talents are incredible. If I lived closer I would be camped out on her porch with my nose to the glass (in a non creepy way) begging for sewing lessons.

Read on for my responses...

In case you can't see my crazy scrawl answers, here they are:

1. Kandipandi
3. The quick brown fox jumps over the lazy dog.
4. In this world you must be oh so smart or oh so pleasant; well I've tried smart I recommend pleasant - Elwood P Dowd (Harvey)
5. Prince of Darkness - Indigo Girs
Sign O' The Times - Prince (can I have two?)
6. Love you all lots ~ heartfelt thanks for your wonderful support and friendship!
Ta Ta for now!

As always I open this out to you all, I am nosey and would love to see your handwriting.

Did you notice my new blog header up there?  What do you think?
I contacted the wonderful Angie of Artwork by Angie as I was in desperate need of a blog tidy up and a new header.  I also wanted a header for my shiny new Folksy shop, and not knowing where to start and not having the time/skills to do it myself Angie jumped in and made this for me.  I gave Angie ideas of the colours and styles I liked and she created this from scratch ~ I was well impressed I think it's very me :)
(The shop is still not ready but I am working on it, I hope to have it stocked over Easter).  
Pop over and have a look at what Angie does, she is a super talented, friendly lady and worth every penny ~ thanks lovely lady x

Back on the subject of crafty things; I did make a start on some knitted and crochet flowers from this book I got my hands on a few weeks ago.

The thing is; even though they are tiny they take ages, well the more complex ones do, perhaps it's just me?

Not entirely sure what I will do with them once I have them all done, I was contemplating a cushion (never, I hear you cry) with them sewn on all over to plonk on my bed.

I made a little pile of them but stole a couple to make into brooches as they were quite cute.

This one is currently residing on my denim jacket. Right must crack on and get some more flowers made or this will be the longest work in progress ever! 


Back soon with my latest crochet cushion finally finished. 

p.s. I have finally dipped my toes in twitter, please feel free to follow my ramblings there too (and let me find your ramblings too) x
