Yarn Along - 100th Post - Giveaway

 
Today this post is my 100th which is quite an achievement when you consider that I was computer illiterate, useless with the camera and unable to upload/download the photos.  Its been a long journey of trial and tribulation.  To this end I am joining in the yarn along, just because I can, I know how to link to another blog.  Writing it down as made me realise just how far I have come and to celebrate I have decided to share the joy and giveaway some of my buttons, shown below.  Buttons are one of my all time favourites, I love buttons.  To be in with a chance to win all these buttons just leave a message in the comments.  I will post the buttons to where ever you are.

Back to the yarn along I have finished the blanket, which I am really pleased with. I have also created a couple of gifts, crochet washcloths and soap for friends in Florida.




  I haven't done a lot of reading as I have been busy preparing for my trip.  I leave for Florida later today,  flying out of Gatwick in the morning.  I have however picked out a couple of books to take with me for the 9 hour flight.


Thank you for your kind support and wonderful comments over the past 100 posts.  The draw for the giveaway will take place on my return from Florida.  Joining

See you soon.with Ginny at Small Things.

  10. Wow... It's finally happened then? I can only imagine your button give away is a result of having finally realised your goal of acquiring every single button in Lincolnshire!! and are now releasing a few back into the wild to collect again another day? Your yarn is beautiful (as are all of your many other bits and pieces) and your blog is looking great! Please may I be entered into the button-fest?
