On March 17, I received the
Kreativ Blogger Award from Caroline over at
If I Can Do it Myself. I wrote to Caroline asking how to post this award on my blog. Almost immediately she sent me the directions, thank you Caroline, and I promptly spaced the whole thing ... Talk about Kreative ... my bad, my sooo bad!! I hope Caroline will accept late but not forgotten ... will you Caroline??? Please???
The rules for accepting this award are:
1. Post the award.
2. Thank and mention the person who gave you the award.
3. Pass the award on to seven bloggers who you think embody the spirit of the Kreativ Blogger Award.
4. Name seven things about yourself that others don’t know.
5. Don’t forget to notify the seven Kreativ Bloggers about their award and post a link to their blog.
Oh boy! Now to choose 7 award winning blogs. All the blogs I read are award winning, but ... let's try these.

3. Love fabric, yarn, beads, paper, painting and most things crafty!
4. I enjoy being by myself.
5. I talk to myself and my animals all the time - real conversations.
