...on a little giveaway idea I've had for quite a while now is what I've been doing this past week... I did think I would have had it all ready and posted by now, but, as is often the case with my little projects, it's grown in scope and it's taking me a bit longer to prepare it. However, I'm really having fun doing so, and I do hope you will come back in a few days once it's posted to see what it's all about...
In the meantime, I thought I would share with you a page from the May issue of Homespun which has put a very big smile on my face. (In case you might not know, Homespun is a lovely crafty magazine published in Australia which, every month, features many original and inspiring ideas and projects involving stitchery crafts such as sewing, quilting, embroidery, appliqué, etc...) I'm so wowed that my little curtain hanging at our lake house got a whole page to itself with such a lovely blurb -- thank you Homespun! To tell you the truth, I find it incredible that this photo may be found in newstands all the way in Australia; at times like this, I can't help but marvel at the crazy power of the internet!
I hope this post finds you all enjoying your weekend (it's a long weekend here in Canada, so it's particularly enjoyable!) and I hope that you come back and check out my giveaway when it gets posted in a few days... Thanks for the visit!
C'est réellement délicat et si féminin. Une très bonne idée de recyclage. I love it! So cute!

Hi Beata
I am in Australia and your gorgeous flower square pattern was one of my first crochet projects when I learnt how to crochet a few years ago. I love following your blog and seeing all your beautiful photos and creative makes. Your vintage linen curtain is wonderful! Louise xx

Hi! I'm another Aussie that loves your work and reads your blog religiously. I've had that curtain idea in the back of my head ever since you first showed it . I'm still collecting! I am also a big fan of your crochet pillow cases. Thanks for the inspiration!
