What Reality TV Stereotype are you? Find out @ Blossom.nu!
I took this quiz today and thought the results were interesting. Ever watched reality shows like survivor and wondered how you would do? I have. I think this quiz indicates that I don’t rock the boat but also that I would have analyzed in my mind and aligned myself with the trustworthy people who would go far. Which is probably completely true. I’m a very good Risk player when the dice aren’t against me.
Quilt-A-Long Week 6
December 30th, 2007 | Posted by Nichole | Category: QuiltingNo Comments
I completed the quilt-a-long week 6 block for one of my quilts today. And you can see all the blocks laid out together. I love it! And I’m very excited that I got some new fun fabrics to work into these quilts for Christmas. I may need to buy some new thread though, I’m using up all of my random colors. This quilt is half done!
Pay It Forward (Repost)
December 29th, 2007 | Posted by Nichole | Category: CraftingNo Comments
Join the fun of the Pay It Forward Exchange. It’s based of the concept of the movie “Pay it Forward” where acts or deeds of kindness are done without expecting something in return, just passing it on, with hope that the recipients of the acts of kindness are passed on. So here’s how it works: I will make and send a handmade gift to the first 3 people who leave a comment to this post on my blog requesting to join this PIF exchange. I do not know what that gift will be yet, and it won’t be sent this month, probably not next month, but it will be sent (within 6 months) and that’s a promise! More than likely I’ll get it made after Christmas and sent out early in the New Year. What YOU have to do in return, then, is pay it forward by making the same promise on your blog to 3 different people. Unfortunately this is only possible for those who have a blog.
If you’d like to join the fun and receive a handmade gift from me comment to this message. Only the first three to post will receive a gift. Then you can pass on the fun through your own blog.
PAY IT FORWARD EXCHANGE IS NOW CLOSED

Carol is another one of my recent commenters. Her blog is filled with pictures of her kids as well as sprinkled with some great recipes you might want to try.
If you haven’t visited Oh So Crafty yet, you should head on over. Tricia has so many great craft ideas and tutorials. And to post a Valentine’s Day card tutorial in December, you know she is ahead of the game.
Kelly’s cat as well as the blanket she is making are great! The pictures are awesome. Be sure to check out the rest of the blog as well for great pictures of lovely crocheted and knitted blankets. Maybe it will inspire you to get out your knitting needles.
Rostitchery has a great tutorial for a one seam convertible dress that you need to try. I haven’t yet tried it myself but it looks like a quick project. Be sure to explore the rest of the blog as well to find your own treasures to add to your “to do list”.
