In a whirl!

Phew... I'm exhausted after the antics of the past two weeks so tonight George and I are treating ourselves. We're off to see the whirling dervishes from Turkey. I've always wanted to see them and they come to Greece at least once a year. Our seats are about 100 miles from the stage, but I still think it will be worth it!


These amazing images are from talented Turkish photographer Umut Kebabci.


Hope you're all off to do something nice this evening and have a great weekend!

a BIG thank you!

I'd like to shout out a big thank you to the lovely Through the Loops and Knit and Tonic blogs for featurning my little hexagon pincushion pattern... and of course to all you lovely people who purchased it!

Featured here are two beautiful examples from Through the Loops. I've had more sales in the past week than in the past six months and a much needed boost to my piggy bank. Thank you all so much!
