Ive got an award!

A big thank you to Barbara over in Made in K Town for giving me this award, it's my first and I'm very honoured and touched to have received it.
Now I have to give you 7 random facts about myself


1.  I have just started with the latest fitness craze Bokwa, google it and check it out, it's    fantastic, I like it even more than Zumba.
2. I am a total chocoholic! hence the need for fitness classes lol
3. I hate driving and will only drive when I really have to.
4. I lived in Syria for 19 years.  I am so pleased that I'm not living there now.
5. I'm dreading my next birthday the big 60 ahhh!
6. I am really useless with all technical things, I would like to re-design my blog page but it's going to take me a while to figure out how.
7. I love playing computer games especially mahjong.


Now the next bit is to give 15 people this award.  I found this to be so difficult.  I follow so many blogs and I love them all, also so many of you already have this award and some others don't accept them.  So please just take this as my appreciation of your blog and the pleasure I get in visiting it, if you don't wish to accept the award I will quite understand.

Motif # 101

This is one of my favourite motifs in the book, it looks more complicated to make than it actually is.  I love the way that it turned out, I can see myself returning to this and making a project with it in the future.

End of Winter Challenge.

The Loving Hands Winter Challenge seemed to come to an end so quickly, the last three months just flew.  With Christmas being in the middle of the challenge I didn't really have time to make as much as I would have liked to.  Never mind at least I have a few things packed up and ready to go, this is what went into the box this time.

One Elephant Blanket
One Blanket for the homeless
Two little tops
Scarf's for the homeless
Washables and underwear.
Polo shirts for Springs of life school in Kenya.

and here is the box just waiting to be closed sealed and sent off to Lou :)

The new Spring Challenge has started already and will run to 28th April 2012.

Motif # 94

Motif # 94
Progress 6 0f 100
  This motif was harder to make than I thought it would be, there is quite a bit of work involved in it, I found it easier to follow the chart than to read the pattern, but once you get used to it it's easy enough. You could make anything with this motif because of it's square shape it would be easy to join more of these together to make a larger project.
