Time for the letter P

I know its almost mid week but if I don't post another letter from my huge list of blogs soon, I will not get through the alphabet by the end of the year!

I like to space them out a bit so that readers get a chance to find an hour or so, make a cuppa, settle back and browse. I think too many too often and people would not explore them. If you have a blog you would like me to look at leave a comment with the URL and I will check it out and I am sure others will too. 

I choose blogs that are on topic and written reasonably frequently, by textile practitioners and designers who do such things as quilt, stitch, dye, sew, embellish fabric, bead, use visual journals, or are interested in art and design. I also try and stick to blogs that are on topic at least 80% of the time. So I read back 10 posts if more than 2 posts are on something other than textiles/art I don’t include them.

Here are the lists so far A , BC , D , EFGHIJKM ,  and

Sharon,
You haven't gotten to the Ts yet, so stop by and check out my new blog about needlepoint and designing. I'm working on a Moroccan rug right now and posting my progress and experience in designing as I go. I also have coasters that I've designed that might interest your readers.
