Some Blog Awards :)

Hi All,

Sorry I’ve been quiet; I’m not really feeling like sewing lately, although I continue to be inspired by all of you 🙂

I have however, been nominated for a few awards, which I’d like to acknowledge and thank the givers of said awards 🙂

First off, has anyone on WordPress noticed that sometimes when you get an email notification of a new post from someone you follow, and then click on the link it says “post not found” or something along those lines? The reason I ask this is because this happened to me today, and I did find the post, and it reminded me that there were several that I got which did this a couple months ago, which then reminded me there was one where Vicki Kate nominated me for an award as well! However I just thought the post had been deleted at the time, so hence my very bad manners in not acknowledging it til now 😛

So, thank you wholeheartedly to the lovely Vicki of VickikateMakes, and to CalicoStretch for nominating me for the One Lovely Blog awards – you are most generous and thoughtful and are very lovely yourselves! 🙂

I also got nominated again for the Liebster award, by MontanaDesigns, so thank you very much for the recognition, I truly appreciate it! 🙂

The rules of the first one seem to be that you need to write some stuff about yourself, and MontanaDesigns has provided me with some questions I am required to answer for the Liebster so I figured we could do it all at once, right? 🙂 Here goes:

• What food would you be and why?

Chocolate, because I’m sweet, honest, naughty, and just so damn good LOL

• If there were no repercussions, would you tell people how you really felt about them?

I do, and that’s why I have very few friends LOL

• What animal would you be and why?

A cat; I’m pretty sure I have some cat in me as it is 😛

• What is your favourite colour?

red, and sometimes orange

• How would you describe your style?

the style I STRIVE towards is: classic, elegant, timeless, sexy, sometimes edgy

• What music are you into?

Depeche Mode mostly, as well as eastern European and Meditteranean music (I discovered my love for this through belly dance)

• What would you tell your younger/older self and why?

It gets better. It really really does. Hang in there – you’re so effing smart and beautiful, and one day you’ll see it.

• Tea or coffee?

both!

• How long have you been crafting?

all my life, in one way or another 🙂

• What season do you like best?

definitely fall 🙂 I absolutely LOVE the coolness, the fog, the smell of bonfire, the frost on the ground in the morning, and a perfect sunny cold October day which includes ALL of these things 😀

• What is your favourite shop?

My happy places are Opus art supplies (I’m an artist first), Fabricland, and Chapters.

Thanks again, ladies, for the nominations, it means a lot to me! 🙂

I am supposed to nominate recipients, but I’m going to be naughty and say I refuse to choose only 11, or 7, or whatever it is, so you ALLLLLLLL get awards!! Whoop Whoop! Love you 🙂 XO

Cheers,
Symon
