What a year!

Hey everyone!
It's my blogging anniversary today.
I have never kept a journal for more than a month or so.
Keeping this blog is a big step for me.


I am commemorating the occasion with a give-away.
I have some stuff that I have made but can't get rid of any other way than to pass it along to y'all.

Here are three aprons that I made for a craft show last December, and they have been sitting in my closet longing for a home
Let's call them-
Blossoms

Lemon
Tomato

I also have a tea cozy that wasn't quite acceptable to the customer for whom it was made.

Please leave a comment indicating which one you would like and I will pick a winner at random.


So many things have happened in the last year.

My children have grown so much.

The Elder Hug-a-Bug started going to School, and the Younger Hug-a-Bug is newly toilet trained.

Goodbye diapers!!!

Coming here every few days has helped keep me on task with my knitting and sewing projects too.

I have a habit of starting too many things and then forgetting what it was that I was working on, but now I have pretty pictures to look at to remind me.

The best thing about being here in blogland is the lovely community of bloggers.

I have made new friends and found old ones.

Such a joy.

Thanks everyone for coming and sharing this space with me.

Jess.

  2. Congratulations on a year! I love the tomato apron, although I'll warn you it'd be well used, and probably tomato-splattered in my kitchen.

    If I were forced to choose, the lemon apron is very sweet.
