The Sew Sisters Blog hop comes to Nova Scotia today and I have a wonderful list of bloggers to share with you. I was delighted when Carol asked me to be a part of this week long event featuring Canadian Quilters. Carol and I "met" online through our quilting blogs when she was still living in India, and then we reconnected once she was settled in Toronto! The Internet can make the world a small place indeed!
Anyhow, a little about me. I've been married for 14 years, and together we have 2 daughters, aged 10 and 7. I started quilting about 12 years ago, took a bit of a break when the girls were young, and started again about 2 years ago. I love to create in general and if you look through my blog you'll see a variety of mediums- fabric, wool, paper crafts etc.
I am partway through craft fair season with only the East Coast Momma Collective fair left in December, so I don't have any quilts I'm working on right now. I did, however, finish up quite a few over the summer.
So, I do have a prize to give away from Sew Sisters. I chose a bundle of Kona Solids (5 co-ordinating colors, 1/2 metre each) as the prize for this stop on the tour. (And yes, ash is one of the colors!)
As promised, a list of fellow quilting bloggers from right here in Nova Scotia!
