Time for the letter E

I have another of my annotated lists of interesting blogs.

So far I have updated the letter A , B, C, D and now its time for the letter E.

As I have said before I choose blogs that stay on topic at least 80% of the time, written reasonably frequently, by textile practitioners and designers who do such things as quilt, stitch, dye, sew, embellish fabric,and bead. Or  written by people who are interested in art and design or paper related crafts, such as bookbinding, altered books or  use visual journals.

On another note

Jerry and I are taking a much needed mini break long weekend in Sydney.  If I have time I will blog from there, otherwise my band sampler and CQ details series will run as per usual.

Thank you Sharon for the recent nice comment on my blog. It's kind of you to do that, especially as you have a lot to deal with at the moment.
I've been trying to do the Stitch Explorer challenge but have found it hard to keep up and to post stuff - I need to be more organised. I apologise for that, and will make more effort to participate properly. I really do value your generous sharing and have learned a lot of what I find fulfillng in embroidery from your blog, challenges and dictionary.
