Hard to believe quarter 3 of the Finish-A-Long is almost over!! The FAL is always a great motivator for me and I'm excited to be sharing a tutorial in this round up! I'm also quilting like crazy in an effort to finish just one more w.i.p.!
Interesting new books by authors I 'know' are more than abundant lately. What's enticing you? This one popped into my cart this week (on preorder), a dictionary of sorts by two awesome quilt bloggers, Lynne Goldsworthy and Kerry Green.
And so did Delancey: A Man, a Woman, a Restaurant, a Marriage by Molly Wizenberg of Orangette.
Molly's first book, A Homemade Life, is one of my favorites, where she "recounts a life with the kitchen at its center". I can relate to that.
And fabric has shipped out for the Modern Quilt Guild's Basics Challenge with Riley Blake Designs. The Seattle Modern Quilt Guild will be participating - any one else?
Well that's about it for this week!
Linking up with Random Thursday.
Fun idea Debbie - I have definitely come a long way, and my blogging style has changed I hope - less writing, better pictures! Congrats on your 700 followers btw :)
ReplyDeleteThanks for hosting another fun linky, Debbie! I will definitely be coming back later to read everyone's first posts. Heading over to Annabella's now!
ReplyDeleteLovely post, and what fun to link up our first blog posts. Good luck on your last finish and I am looking forward to seeing your Patchwork Please project.
ReplyDeleteGreat idea Debbie. I think we have all come a long way since our first posts.
ReplyDeleteAnother great link up idea. Looking forward to visiting everyones' first posts.
ReplyDeleteLots of goodness there! I'll link up my first post in a minute...
ReplyDeleteI am participating in the Riley Blake challenge, I am so excited to be participating in a challenge from the Modern Quilt Guild!
ReplyDeleteSo fun to hear that Molly Wizenberg has another book coming out! I loved her first one!
ReplyDeleteGoing back to look, I saw that my first blog post didn't even have a photo!! So my profile pic will do. :)
ReplyDeleteLike Heather, my first blog post didn't have a photo, either. Hilarious to go back and read. Thanks for a fun linky and sorry for being a delinquent Zakka Alonger. Life is getting in the way these days!
ReplyDeletePerfect timing - I just celebrating my Year of Blogging on Monday and included my 1st post in it. It was short with no pictures so I had to link up with a pic of me! So much learned with much fun this year...
ReplyDeleteOh I love my first ever blog post. It is so different from the things I am blogging now and it shows perfectly how much I have changed ... and there is a huge change going on now! thanks for reminding
ReplyDeleteThanks for doing this, so nice to see the beginnings :)
ReplyDeleteWhat a great idea! It feels weird to look back at my own early blog posts, but it's so fun to see how everyone started out!
ReplyDeleteMine was short and sweet :) I'd love to do the MQG challenge but the meetings are too far away for me to attend so I'm not a member
ReplyDeleteI'm definitely coming back to read these--how fun
