Hello blog friends. I hope you've all enjoyed the week so far. I am, but I've had such a busy week, so please forgive me if I haven't been able to visit your blogs.
I did a blog post on a crocheted fall leaf that I made HERE, about two weeks ago. Below is what my crocheted leaf looks like.
Well, I was so happy when my blog friend Diane from Lavender Dreams made one too. It makes me so happy when I can inspire someone to crochet or knit a project that I make.
Look at Diane's pretty leaf and she made hers using brown colored yarn.
Thanks Diane for sharing with me the lovely crocheted fall leaf you made. It will be just perfect for fall decorating. You have inspired me to make one in brown yarn too.
Please visit Diane's blog where she writes and shares about her fun life in Florida.
If you would like to make this crochet leaf the pattern can be found HERE.
I also want to thank Jenna from The Painted Apron who recently had a Giveaway. I was picked as the winner of a hand painted Pumpkin Runner she made.
I was so shocked and surprised when she announced that I was the WINNER!
Thanks so much Jenna for being so thoughtful and generous. I can't wait to use the pretty hand painted pumpkin runner you made, and it will look perfect for my fall decorating.
Please visit The Painted Apron where Jenna shares about entertaining and her wonderful recipes. Jenna is also a very talented artist where she shares all of her beautiful paintings and crafts. Thanks Jenna you have inspired me to paint a pumpkin!

I recently entered a giveaway that Kim from Exquisitely Unremarkable had for her three year blog anniversary. I was so pleasantly surprised to find out that I was the WINNER!
I found this lovely thank you card when I opened up the box.
I have already filled the bag up with my crochet project (a crochet scarf) and my crochet/knit supplies and it's ready to go for my next crochet meeting, which is today! I will enjoy using this beautiful spring bag and thanks again Kim for your lovely giveaway.
If you all have a chance, please visit Kim's lovely blog Exquisitely Unremarkable as she just celebrated three years of blogging! Kim loves blogging about home decor, crafts, and recipes.

Hi friends. Last week I had the opportunity to get together and meet Amy the blogger from Ms. Toody Goo Shoes.
Amy and I don't live that far away from each other so we decided to meet for Iced Coffee at Le Pain Quotidien. It was such a nice afternoon and I enjoyed catching up with her and talking about blogging and getting to know each other better.
Please visit Amy's lovely blog Ms. Toody Goo Shoes where she blogs about food, traveling, her house, and more. I'm so happy we arranged to meet with each other and I look forward to meeting with Amy again in the future.

Hi friends, I hope you all had a wonderful Christmas and holiday. I know I did as I spent it visiting family and friends. I did some entertaining and it was so enjoyable. It is such a wonderful time of the year.
I will miss the holidays when they are over but I'll enjoy the quiet time when things settle down and the new year starts.
It has been a fun year blogging for me and getting to know some of you a little better. You all make it so enjoyable and thanks for that. I appreciate your kind and sweet comments and emails and I look forward to a new year of blogging with you.
