So the gorgeous and talented Debi is hosting Sew Grateful week! I think it's a seriously lovely idea, and it seems I'm not the only one - my google reader has exploded with giveaways, tutorials and some very thoughtful and genuine reflections. I can't wait to see everyone's completed projects later in the week!
One thing I'm particularly loving about this week is the link round-ups people have done, and the shout-outs to their favourite blog buddies. For someone like me, who has only been blogging for a fraction of a second, it's given me a stellar opportunity to discover new content - great posts that I might have missed the first time, tutorials on things I didn't even realise I wasn't doing, and amazing sewers and crafters whose blogs I hadn't discovered yet! Oh, the link-hopping! I can't tear myself away from y'all! My laptop has become grafted to my lap!
So I thought I would post about the things I'm grateful for... that I've discovered through other people's sew grateful posts. Wow, it's like a sew grateful vortex!
- Beata of Tatulinka's Tales posted an awesome list of things I can't wait to explore further! I had never come across A Frock by Friday, and I had totally forgotten I wanted to try Casey's Sundress Tutorial this summer! Thanks, Beata!
- I love Sunni's Stitching Spotlight posts a whole heap - talk about pretty overload! This one is what alerted me to Sew Grateful week in the first place! Hooray! I also discovered these tips for outdoor photography which will be coming in handy very soon!
- I've just discovered the adorable Marie through her Sew Grateful Week giveaway! She linked back to one of her own posts from last month that lists FIVE awesome online tutorials. Like I needed more projects - aww who am I kidding, I always WANT more projects!!
So there - pretty much anything I read on any blog about sewing I am grateful for, because I always learn something. It's dizzying - in fact, I have literally exhausted myself with this, so to bed with me! Oh, and here's the button back to Debi's:

YAY! So glad to have found your blog! I look forward to sharing our sewing adventures with each other!
ReplyDeleteThanks so much, Debi!
