thanks, deborah!

Deborah gave me a little blog award. Thank you! :) So to share the love, I'm listing seven other bloggers:

Ulrika Olsson Keramik. {i actually use google translator to read her blog, but i am always inspired!}

himalainen. {another blog i have to translate, but it's such a lovely blog with beautiful pictures.}

Liivian talossa. {i guess i read a lot of blogs that have to be translated, don't i? but they really are my favorite.}

abby try again. {i love abby's blog. her photographs are amazing and i love her sense of style. without sounding too creepy, i hope one day i can meet her.}

the habit of being. {i have to say, nicole's blog is one of my very favorites. her writing always make me think and i really appreciate her love of nature. another gal i'd love to meet someday.}

angry chicken. {she's always making something super rad. like her own underwear or deodorant and the most recent she has gotten into making butter. awesome! i use her recipe "cheat sheet" a ton.}

manteli. {i know i've mentioned her blog here before, but i love it so.}


{sometimes i'm a shy blogger, so i'm not going to follow the directions exactly. but if you happen to see your blog listed, feel free to pass on the award.}

the week at its end.

**Been sewing a lot and listening to Billie Holiday.

**Yesterday I woke up to a blanket of snow on the ground. Despite wishing it were summer, this made me happy.

**Last night I watched The Women while hand sewing trim on a dress. I saw it once a long time ago and I don't remember it being so good! Really, you must check it out (especially if you are a woman.) ;) I heard there is a remake? It couldn't possibly be as good as the original.

**Today is another day of sewing for me, but I'm nearing the end of one project and it's turning out really very nice. I always get a little nervous until I see it all coming together the way I pictured it.

**Hey, look...Erica gave me a little blog award. Aww, thanks! :) And here are 10 blogs I love:

• The Habit of Being
• Grass Doe
• Manteli
• Needled
• Abby Try Again
• A Continuous Lean
• Obscure Classics
• Behind the Curtain
• The Pioneer Woman
• Savilintu
  

I hope everyone has had a lovely weekend. I had better get started on that pile of sewing!

P.S. I forgot someone had asked awhile back if I could get them the link to my old music playlist. I took it off because it was screwing up my page, but I want to make a new one sometime. Until then, you can find the old one here. :)

Look, more yarn! It's always fun getting things in the mail. I also stopped by our LYS to pick up a few needles and a few more skeins for presents. I'm getting excited about making gifts this year, though I just hope I can get it all completed in time! Tomorrow morning I'm off to make more gifts at a local shop. I hesitate to write what it is I am making, though. I'm not actually sure who all reads my blog! :)

By the way, thank you for all the blog love recently! I love it when those of you who read my blog write and let me know who you are. It's nice to know people actually read my blog and find it somewhat inspiring.

A few of my favorite blogs and some I recently discovered:

• manteli
• Lisen Adbåge
• savilintu
• The Daily Purl

Have a lovely weekend!
