Time definitely flies when you're having fun! It's hard to believe that today is my 1-year blog-a-versary (is that a word?.....probably not). 1-year ago today I started this blog with much encouragement from my friends and here I am a year later having met so many wonderful and talented people and feeling like I am truly part of a community.
It's amazing to me how this blog has evolved over the last year. Click here to read my very first post EVER!
What have I learned from blogging over the last year?
- Blogging is truly a community
- There are so many wonderful and talented people in this world
- Blogging is a lot of work
- Blogging is totally rewarding
- Blogging is addictive
- It's so important to blog about something you are passionate about
- There are many different ways to create the same thing
- Blog when you have something to say, not just because you feel like you should be blogging
- Good pictures are key
- It is so important to stay true to yourself, your design style, your passions, your interests, ect.....if people like it, they will stick around.
- Never start a blog because you want to make money - blog because you love it.
So here is what I am offering to you...........
8 Half Yards of Heather Bailey's "Nicey Jane"
So I'm not necessarily going to tell you which prints I will be sending, but it will be a total of 4 yards (8 half yard cuts) of the prints shown above. This is my very favorite fabric collection, so this means I really love you guys......like, really, really, really.........
