Celebrating

Nah, not my birthday or anything in particular. 

Well, I suppose it is a 'particular' in a way as a birth was made on this date in 2006. Sheeesh, that's eleven years ago!!! 

It's the day this blog was 'born'. Here's my first post and I'm still asking the same question although I THINK I've now got the answer!!!

It simply keeps me motivated!! Tat's all, really!

Sometimes I wonder how many read the blog but then I realise that it's probably a way of dealing with sleep problems as it probably sends my readers to sleep.  Reading it would certainly put me to sleep!!!!  

Now each post ought to have a picture so here's one to brighten the the anniversary day!!!

Your blog is an inspiration in many ways, I love your innovation, your genuine love of tatting, your willingness to share but mostly your persistent, consistent and obvious optimism. Your day is well started when mine just begins. I love seeing what you've done and your adventures-even with the Royal Fail!

Happy blogiversary! I think more people then you realize read your blog. There is always so much fun to be seen, and new ideas to be heard. I use it as a reason not to do housework, but certainly not to put me to sleep.
