My First Award!!

YAY I have received my very first award!!  Thank you so much to Annissa over at A Page in My Book for this awesome award!!  





Here are the rules for acceptance of this award:
1. Thank and link back to the person who awarded you the award.
2. Share 7 things about yourself.
3. Award 15 other bloggers.
4. Contact these bloggers and tell them about the award.

Seven things about me....that relate to sewing lol...

1) My current sewing room is what used to be my "eat in kitchen".  I am planning to convert my kids playroom into my sewing room eventually....hopefully soon.

2) I have a Brother CS-8060 sewing machine which is nice - but the little thread cassette thing can be really annoying at times.  I'm getting a NEW machine, a Brother PC-420, when I get taxes back which should be in late February.

3) Not a single person in my family sews on a regular basis - my grandmother didn't even sew!  She did crochet though, and she taught me a little of it which is another thing that's on my to-do list.  No one is really crafty or creative either, so I'm not sure where I got it from.

4)  My 7 year old daughter (Pickle) is obsessed with Billy the Exterminator.  Not sure how that relates to sewing but I just thought I'd throw that out there lol.

5) I ordered a kit today from www.quiltsforkids.org which is an awesome organization - check it out!!  I can't wait to make my first quilt for such a wonderful cause which is dear to my heart.

6) I have pricked myself at least 500 times in the past month with pins lol.  I have to laugh at myself everytime I do it because it's so me.

7) I ordered 3 charm packs from www.missouriquiltco.com and they are precious!  Can't wait to use them.  Oh and I ordered a dresden tool from them as well.  I think dresden plates are so beautiful!

Now for the hard part....awarding 15 other bloggers!!  I don't think I even KNOW 15 other bloggers LOL!!  But I'll try!

15 Bloggers to whom I have bestowed this award:
A Flowered Purse - One of my dearest friends, a truly beautiful person
CraftyGemini - A wonderful teacher and my favorite vlogger ever!
Missouri Star Quilt Co. - Love their daily deal!!  Got a charm pack for 97 cents!  AND they give you reward points each time you shop so you basically are getting paid to shop with them - love it!

The remainder of these blogs are ones I found randomly - haven't fully checked them all out but they look very cool!

    LOL I have to admit, at first I was like....HUH?? And then I started to think hmmm he's kinda sexy lol. And he's a friend to animals, which to me says he's a good hearted person. Pickle asked me tonight where Billy lives and I said Louisiana and she said "oh can we move there????" and I said WHY? And she said "so we can be friends with Billy!" Ummm sure Pickle...I'll get right on it. :/

    Hi there! Do you know if they make any plugins to protect against hackers?
    I'm kinda paranoid about losing everything I've worked hard
    on. Any recommendations?

    When some one searches for his essential thing, therefore
    he/she needs to be available that in detail, thus that thing is maintained over here.
