a new blog

I have started a new blog that deals with our attempt at gardening. We started on Saturday to get it ready for this winter period. I am going to try and keep daily posts on the progress of the project.
You can visit the blog here.

A family of bloggers

My mother has finally gotten her blog up. I gave it to her as a Christmas present. You can see it here Pottery by Hazel. Please head over there and leave her a message. She is so excited about having somewhere to share her pottery. There will be new photos uploaded soon to the page. :)

Yummy yarn

On another blog, there is a contest to win some homespun yarn. I have to say that the yarn is very yummy looking. You can visit the site here at http://garnfiti.blogspot.com/2008/10/halloween-contest.html
I just wish I had a spinning wheel so that I could do some spinning as well.

Interesting blog sighting

Not many of you know that I own a sewing machine, but I can't really use it. My mother is the sewer really. But I am going to learn to use it, as I have a few things that I want to make, I also want to learn to do quilting! I have seen so many beautiful quilts made up that I would love it give it a go too.

I was looking at a blog and there was a link to The Green Bag Lady. She shows you how to make your own shopping bags! So I think I am going to have to give these bags a try. I really love bags, and can't help but want to make them, even in crocheting and now I have seen a few in knitting that I want to give a go. But I think bags are going to be one of those things that I am going to enjoy making once I know how to.
