Today is my birthday! La la la la la! Did you all see the present I'm giving you? It was in this week's newsletter - a coupon for 20% off anything/everything in my shop. Just type in the discount code BIRTHDAY. You can use it as many times as you want - but it expires at midnight this Sunday.
I want to hand out a few more presents too. I played around with the Random Number Generator (except I typed in Ransom Number Generator - hmmm. . .) and some of you are getting free patterns. Surprise!
From my newsletter subscribers. . . Joanne Eichelberger!
From Facebook Fans. . . Renee Pokorny!
From Blogger followers. . . Simone of Sew Simone!
From commenters on the blog. . . Melissa Faires!
And from people who have uploaded photos to the Flickr groups. . . kidsinthestudio!
I'll email all of you later today, but if you see this first - shoot me an email and let me know which pattern you'd like and I'll send you the link to download.
Have a great day everyone! And thanks so much for following this blog - it's been a joy meeting you! My birthday wish is for all of you to take a little bit of time today to make something. Today I'll be making a video, doing some crochet on a skirt for my daughter, finishing my taxes (yuck!) and cooking my favorite new dinner - pasta with roasted butternut squash, spinach, parmesan and cream. My daughter hinted that there will be brownies with strawberries and vanilla ice cream for dessert. Yum!
What are you all making? Tell us in the comments!
Happy Birthday! And thank you so much! I emailed you from my main gmail account. ;) Today I'm making time to go to the playground, since the sun is finally out and it's not freezing cold or raining. And if I'm lucky, I'll whip up a curtain for the bathroom, but the playground is the priority. Enjoy your day!!

Thanks so much everyone! And Anne - thanks fo the comment about my hair. When I started doing the videos I was growing it out and wasn't sure what I wanted to do with it. I'm happy with the new cut - but had to veil it again for the newest video. It was FREEZING that morning when I went to work and once I start out with a knit cap - well - I'm committed to it for the whole day. :-)
ReplyDeleteJoelle - I love what you and your daughter made and I can't wait to share it with everyone else!
