Two big announcements....

I have just acquainted myself with the random number generator.  What a truly user friendly program that is.  So, the first big announcement I would like to make tonight is to share the winners of our giveaway.  The lucky winners are numbers 30, 8 and 24.  Yay!!!  Congratulations.  Oh, maybe I should have a look at the wonderful list of beautiful people and see who corresponds with those lucky numbers.

Okay, okay, before I do that, I think I will announce the second exciting thing.  Did you know it is February 29 tomorrow?  Yes, really.  Once every four years we get to celebrate that special day.  Well, just because it only comes around every four years, and just because I am sure we have readers who have a birthday on this special day, and just because I can, well, LET'S HAVE A SALE, LADIES!!!!  How does 30% off sound?  Really!! 30% off everything at Honeysuckle Cottage, except BOM's, fat 1/4 packs and threads.  Be quick Ladies, as this sale will only run for February 29, 2008.  On your mark, get set...

Now, back to those lucky numbers. The angel attached to number 30 is lifetillgood,who left a hug on February 25.  Next we have number 8, who sharon-nz and finally number 24 belongs to Niki, who popped in on February 24.  Please email me your snail mail address, ladies, and I will put your gorgeous books in the mail for you.

Thank you all for your beautiful hugs and words of encouragement.  I will cherish each and every word you have all shared.

Happy stitching Ladies, oh and shopping....

Oops I just read what I wrote and of course that should be 'blog' entry and not 'blob. Oh dear!!! ;-)

Well not really to do with this blob entry - but I have just received the first pattern in your Christmas Club for 2008, and apart from the fact that it is a great pattern, I wanted to let you know how delighted I am with it. It wasn't just the fact of received the bits and bobs for the making of it, it was also how delightly you had arranged everything in the package making it a confection for the eye. Thank you, thank you, thank you.

Hey Kim! I've just found your blog and enjoyed a stroll through your archives - sounds like life at Honeysuckle Cottage is a full-on roller coaster!! I've only been blogging a few months, but have been pleasantly amazed at the warm, caring community that is forming through the blog networks. We may all be in different places physically, but it's pretty cool to think we're all on the same page, really! Hope you have a great week and hope you'll pop by my blog one day - in your spare time of course! Tee! Hee! Hee! Bear hugs! CHEERS! KRIS

Happy Birthday my special friend. 36, right?

Wanted to tell you how thrilled I was with the gorgeous wool I bought from you. I made a hobby horse with the cherry red and it is divine, with 1/4" strips for the mane and ripped, tea-dyed and plaited muslin strips for the plaited harness. Your advice was spot on.

Also, I love the first two months of "Sunshine Frolics" as it has made me sew a prettier version of a quilt I have not tried before.

I really admire anyone who takes on a business that is so obviously full on and cannot imagine how you get time to yourself.

As mentioned before - that Reiki attunement did something pretty terrific for me that I am now realising after two weeks. Not only have I experienced some WACKY technicolour dreams that I remember the next day but GUESS WHAT KIMMY? At 4am today I woke up with a quilt design. No kidding. Remembered it all day even though I was so busy at work and got it down on 2 pieces A4 paper tonight. My goodness. I am on the designing bent again. Hallelujah!!!!! I haven't felt this clear about an artwork since I designed my 2 books and that was eons ago. I really think this will work with the you-know-what and its limitations. I am going ahead with a real size plan and doing what I do best - having everything as prepared and vibrant as possible. I cannot wait to see the you-know-what. Tee hee.

You have done me a favour. I have my spark back and that gets me through my working day. I want to get out my colours again and start.
Already decided it will go under my art name. Ha ha. Have to be good now I've said that!!!!

Love you bucketsful,
