It is amazing to think it has been a full year since I started my blog. Lately my blog has focused mostly on the crafty side, but I still enjoy the cooking/baking aspects and the finer arts. So my goal for this next year will be to find a balance!!! That’s it, simple….right???
I don’t want go into too much of what I have done, as I think these posts cover it well, and sums it all up with photo mosaics.
- 2012 Summary of Edible delights + Squeek Crafts
- 2013 New Blogger intro which covers Squeek Crafts 2013, so far
First, I would like to thank all those that I have meet over the course of the year. You are all inspiring, encouraging and wonderful people. I started out looking for a community and I, for sure, have found that. So, thank you to all.
In conjunction with Julie’s Sunday Funday party, for two weeks I will be hosting a giveaway.
As a thank you this week, I am giving away the book “Quilting on the Go”, one set of reusable hexagon templates, and two charm packs (Posy + Baby Jane)….kind of a mini hand project kit!! All you need to do is leave:
- a comment below – about anything you want,
- and if you are a follower leave a second comment for a second entry.
I will draw a winner randomly next Friday.
Also something a little different, there a 5 people who, in particular, have offered guidance, encouragement over this year – they are my 5 top commenters in my blog. I truly appreciate you stopping by so much. I am gifting each a $25 USD Etsy gift card.
Hope you all have a great weekend and good luck…stop by next week for a 2nd giveaway opportunity.
