Ah, don’t you need me any more? I’d been wondering why I hadn’t heard anything lol
Such fun!!!! Got lots of great entries to check out!
I know it is one entry per person, but I did another review and project and if anyone wants to check it out, it can be found here: http://www.marcigirldesigns.com/1/post/2013/09/love-u-quilt-and-a-book-review.html
Obviously, I love Craft Book Month!
Thank you so much for the link up and the opportunity to promote beautiful craft books. It is so nice to be able to check out the beautiful projects.
Just added my link. Thanks to the challenge I have a Halloween quilt in my house! Love to browse all the projects and books listed.
Thanks. I added my link. I’m glad for the challenge. I have quite a few craft books and I rarely sew / make something from them. Why? I don’t know.
I just finished my project to post, but I see the collection closed…oh well maybe next year.
I rushed to get something done, but I’m too late as well! That’s OK, crossed something off my craft book to do list!
