Belated thank you's,

Bit further on with the toweling cat, body all finished, just need to make a dress.  This one has been made using the basic body pattern from this soft toy kit, which I designed a couple of years ago, I'm changing all the fabrics and have updated the face a little.

Apologies are in order though,  I had forgotten about being nominated for, firstly a 'you make my day' award, by both Jane and Lesley, (thank you ladies),

for this, and also for Corinne, I have to name 10 blogs, 10 wonderful blogs.  There are so many to choose from, my Bloglines list is now nearing 200!  So, instead, I will nominate a small selection, that if you haven't already, you simply must check out, the common theme here, being they have all set themselves challenges for 2012, and are coming up with some amazing stuff.

3191, A Year of Evenings

Eight by Eight

Loo-sley Crafting

and Syko, who is doing an ingenious interactive project!

And I've also been nominated for this by Apryl.

For this one, I have to list 7 weird facts about myself, so here goes,

1. I don't drink tea or coffee

2.  I am naturally blonde, but dye my hair brown

3.  I don't like oranges

4.  I afraid I don't like Blythe dolls, I think they are creepy

5.  I love jelly sweets, in fact I am positively mean over how many sweets I allow my children to have because I save them for myself instead!

6.  I am addicted to tickling my nose on my children's hair, so much so, that they run away from me now!

7.  After failing needlework at school, I have since completed a BA Honours Degree in Weaving and Embroidery!

So, there you go.  Instead of nominating anyone for this one though, I'm going to ask you all to leave a comment and tell me one weird fact about you, so we can find out who is the weirdest!
