Share a link
Monday, September 8, 2008 at 7:49AMLife is a bit busy here at the moment, and over the weekend I was unable to play catch up, so I need a non blogging week to clear the decks. We are starting to get busy at work as our academic year (in Australia) commences the run up to the end of the year which is our exam period.
If you are going through link withdrawls check out the list below or any of the blogs in my sidebar. There is some good folks there.
OR ... if you want to share a link and point people to a site you think is great or your own blog please do so. I am leaving the comments open so you can leave a message - as long s it relates to textiles I will approve it.
See back here next Monday morning ... hopefully less stressed about my to do list ...
A Late edit - I will aprove textile links that lead to real content not blatant advertising and marketing. In other words sites athat are part of a community rather than just selling to a community

Breathe in. Breathe out. Breathe in.... Breathe out.
I would like to share this link of someone who is a new blogger, she lives in Australia.
I recently pass on an award to her because although she hasn't been doing this long, she has sure made a good start.
She makes the most incredible felts which depict the Australian bush. Do take a look if you can. Tricia

There's a new SAL going on here: http://memyselfandirrs.blogspot.com/
There are 100 of us on the first blog and more on the second. The idea is to stitch a neighborhood on a large piece of fabric... inspired by the nieghborhood round robins!
Should be fun to watch the "building" process :)
I recommend to you these two blogs (that I visit regularly) about cross-stitching and other related crafts:
http://www.leschroniquesdefrimousse.com
and

I love the way she makes it sound easy
What better link to share than one to my own blog??=) I've just started formal embroidery studies too, so a new dimension is being added.
