Hope you had a good day at the beach. Just wish we had this weather at the beginning of the hols instead of the end. We've just got back from Pendle and "Witches Galore" shop. I know I'm early for Halloween but for once I'm trying to get ahead of myself.
I love the way "Cotton and Paint" use such subtle colours with a pattern as a "highlighter". Those comfy slippers look just the thing for winter with wool socks or a Christmas present.
I've just been google-ing Japanese craft books I a stumbled upon your blog. That lion is just too cute. Can you recommend a good place to buy things like this online?
I'd like to urge you and other crafters out there to join librarything.com ; it's a great social networking site that allows you to create a catalog of your OWN library books -- for free! You can use Amazon.co.JP to bring in Japanese books. It's a great way to share information and learn about others' books, although you can make your catalog public or private. There are a few crafters using it for J-craft books and a few (mostly inactive) discussion groups. I'd love it if more people shared information on the site. I'm not in any way connected with it, just a happy user.
I can't tell you how many times I've been inspired by you! I've given you the Nice Matters Award. Details on my blog: www.noddyboom.typepad.com
Merci pour tout! :)
Goodmornig, I'm taking a look to your wonderful blog. Here there are so many wonderful things and I've saved this blog in my favourites!! =)
Please, I'm looking for some Japanese crafts book and Cotton & Paint magazine (especially n. of November 07), used as well. Could you tell me who can sell them and ship in Italy? Thanks so much! Giuli in Italy

Have a brilll day,
Martine
