Grow Your Blog

Hello!

Welcome to my little corner of the internet taking part in the Grow Your Blog event hosted by Vicki at Two Bags Full 

My name is Emma, I am 27 years old and I live in West Yorkshire, United Kingdom. I live with my ever suffering partner David, and our fur baby Sheldon. We also have another another fur baby who goes by the name of Charlie, however he is quite the adventurer and so his visits home are dictated only by his stomach!

This blog was created a little under two years ago, when I decided I was fed up on an evening and weekend of just sitting in front of the TV or computer and I wanted to do something more productive with my time. So, I revisited the glorious world of craft, cross stitch in particular with a little bit of (basic!) knitting thrown in for good measure!

I think I get my crafty side from my Nana, however she is a far better knitter than I will ever be, however she does try her best with me!

Here are a few of my favourite completed pieces, however you can find them all under the tab at the top of the page "completed stitches"

I am a firm believer in "varitety is the spice of life!" so I would say I don't have a style or favourite designer, I do what feels right at the time, which may explain my ever expanding W.I.P pile!!

My dear readers also have a suffer with some ramblings from me sometimes, anything from holiday photos, weight loss, my adventure in to starting running with a few giveaways thrown in for good measure too! Oh and cat photos. Everyone needs a random cat photo from time to time!

I am due a giveaway soon, to celebrate me reaching 200 followers, so look out for that soon too!

I also have a second blog, which is for my reading. This is a new project I am working on which you can find here.

I hope you enjoyed your visit to my blog and I would love to hear from you in the comments below! Thank you for taking the time to visit!

#62 - Welcome, IHSW and a Party!

Oh my! My followers have certainly jumped up in numbers this past week or so :D

Hello and welcome to you all - I hope you enjoy your stay in my little corner of the world.

I guess I will have to start thinking of a giveaway when I hit 100! ;)

Just a gentle reminder folks that this weekend is IHSW - hurrah! As I mentioned in my previous post I also have Friday off work so even more time to stitch, stitch, stitch away, and even more reason to make sure I get plenty done this time!

If you have no idea what I am talking about or would like to join in then visit Ramdom Ramblings or click the picture below :)


Also on the 19th is 2 Bags Full's event - Grow Your Blog, the idea been you get your blog out there to a wider audience and in return you will hopefully find some new reading! But hurry the sign up date is today (15th)! Or click HERE to take you direct to the sign up post.

Well I hope you are all having a good week, for some reason I keep thinking it is Wednesday (wishful thinking?) So far this week I have worked some more on Mini The Black, but I will save that for Friday before I start the IHSW.

Happy Stitching!
