TWITTER MOSAIC
I have just found this fun Twitter thing that makes a mosaic of all your Twitter followers. You can have this put on mugs, bags, t-shirts. What a great idea! Can you find yourself?

HAPPY BIRTHDAY MUM
It is so many years since I have been able to say those words. My mum died in 1985 age 56. I love her so much and miss her terribly. There have been many times over the years, difficult times, when I would have loved to have turned to my mum for help and advice. This weekend has been difficult for me and I have shed a few tears, thinking back to those wonderful days when I had my parents to share my life with. My dearest mum has missed out on so many things. She never got to meet all her grandchildren and her great grandchildren. I would have loved Amy, my youngest daughter, to have known her. Yesterday would have been her 80th birthday. Happy Birthday Mum, I love you.

LET'S BE FRIENDS
It was a lovely surprise to find that I had been awarded this "Let's Be Friends Award" by Nicole at Beadwright. Thank you very much Nicole it is very much appreciated to know that you consider me a 'blog friend'. This award states
that ...
These blogs are exceedingly charming. These kind bloggers aim to find and be friends. They are not interested in self-aggrandizement. Our hope is that when the ribbons of these prizes are cut, even more friendships are propagated. Please give more attention to these writers. Deliver this award to eight bloggers who must choose eight more and include this cleverly-written text into the body of their award.
There are so many blogs I come across that I love, but I can only pick 8, so here they are:
There are so many more that I could have included in my list.

ANOTHER THANKYOU!
When I checked into Etsy last week I was very happy to find a message from Bionicunicorn. This wonderful seller from Etsy was letting me know that she had featured my Sydney Elephant Pincushion Desk Buddy in her beautiful treasury. Sydney is not a stranger to publicity he recently made an appearance on the front page of Etsy. My sales have been down since Christmas so any help I can get in advertising my shop is much appreciated. So many, many thanks to Bionicunicorn for featuring Sydney. Check out Bionicunicorn's shop for some gorgeous vintage inspired costume jewellery. Here is one of her many amazing pieces.

NEW TREASURY
Many thanks to Nemeton for including my simple cream brooch in her very elegant treasury. I crocheted this brooch in a lovely cream yarn, it makes a great accessory for hats, bags or coats and the colour enables it to be matched with a variety of other colours. Nemeton (aka Lynn Davey) is one of the most talented beaders I have come across on Etsy. Visit her shop to see her amazing creations.
