Thank You




I just wanted to pop by and thank everyone who has entered my Absolutely Lovely Giveaway so far.  I'm absolutely gobsmacked by how many of you there are!  Blogging is a funny old business; you sort of forget people might actually be reading what you write.  Thank you too for all the kind things you've said.  I'm feeling terribly pink-cheeked and thrilled, believe me!  I've been thoroughly enjoying reading all of your positive comments and have decided that perhaps January isn't so bad after all.

Incidentally, just for the purpose of the giveaway and so that it is fully inclusive, I've changed my blog settings in order that anonymous users are able to leave a comment.  Unfortunately, I will have to switch the filter back on when it closes as I have been inundated with some very dubious messages and offers!  Don't forget, you have until this Friday, 5pm GMT.

This has also been the perfect opportunity to share my anemones with you.  They're my all time favourite flowers.  I pounced on them in the supermarket yesterday.  This happy tangle has been giving me so much pleasure.

Oh, and is it just me or are the nights drawing out ever so slightly?  *big smile*

Back soon.

  1. the anemone is beautiful! I didn't enter, as a non-crocheter (I'm not even sure if that's a word!) I didn't want to risk depriving someone else of that beautiful wool, but it was a very lovely giveaway indeed, and very kind of you!

  9. Gorgeous photos - especially that last one. It would look nice in watercolours - or just cheat and use the watercolour app!
    Happy Days,

  10. That's a shame that the anonymous comment thing will go again. I often feel terribly excluded because I try and stay away from having the online ID that tracks your every move. I read a whole lot of blogs and 9 times out of 10 I will comment if I am able to. Unfortunately more and more blogs don't seem to enable anon comments and so people never know how much I love what they write or make. It feels quite sad sometimes :(

    I love anemones and they were my grandmothers favourite flowers. I always miss them though as I don't know when to look for them. I shall see if I can find any as they are beautiful. We are definitely having a little more light, I noticed the other day. Soon be spring at this rate.

  12. I'm another anonymous person who reads the blogs but sometimes have difficulties in leaving a comment, you are one of the blogs I read regularly and I really like the look of your blog and all your crochet makes, so even if I can't leave a comment I am visiting it, I hadn't realized that anemones were available as cut flowers, I've always known them for planting, maybe it's just not in the stores we have here on the west coast of Canada, Tory (torygadomski@ yahoo.ca) from B.C.
