Time for the letter H
Friday, August 21, 2009 at 8:10AM
I have another of my annotated lists of interesting blogs which I hope readers will enjoy. So far this year I have updated the letter A , B, C, D, E, F, G and now we are at H
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 are kept by people who are interested in art, design or paper related crafts, such as bookbinding and altered books. Another area of interest is Art Journals, visual journals or studio journals.
