We interrupt your regularly scheduled programming...

Today is the last day of February!

The thing is, I've still got 2 "LOVE" blog posts to share with you. They are almost ready to go and I had intended to finish and get them posted today...

However...

I'm going to extend February by a few days this year. (hmmm... can I really do that?)...

You see, my little one got the stomach flu last night and I was up most of the night taking care of her...

Then just about the time she fell asleep... a MASSIVE storm blew through here.  We were all huddled up in the basement waiting for it to pass.  Thankfully we have escaped unharmed (well the trampoline net was harmed, but it doesn't count).  They think a tornado might have touched down in our county...

So today, I feel like this....



and am going to need a day or 2 to catch up.  I'm getting old and missing an entire night of sleep is not as easy as it used to be.

But...

I did want to pop in here and share with you today that I've picked my theme for March!!

It's...


{Journey}

The gnome that went to Europe with us in 2007

I'll be sharing sewing and craft tutorials related to travel and exploring! Plus a couple of other fun ideas.

I admit to being struck with wanderlust, but even if your not, there will still be ideas that you can use!

Here's where I need your help...

I would love to add a "Guest Blogger" each month. A fun new perspective on that month's theme!

If you have a tutorial that you would like to share here, just send me an email.

-It can be a previously posted tutorial

-It doesn't have to be finished already. If it's not, just send me a description of your idea and a link to some other tutorials that you have written (just to get an idea of your style).

-I'm just going to be using one, and I'll mostly be picking it based on what I have planned that month. So something that compliments the posts that I'm already working on.

-Feel free to link up your blog, post a little tidbit about your etsy shop, introduce yourself  etc...

-Scheduling dates are flexible, but needs to be done before the end of that month.

-Doesn't matter how many blog subscribers you have.

-Please please please do not feel bad if I don't use your tutorial that month.  I really am going to pick them due to what I already have planned that month. The thought of turning someone down had me put off this idea for 2 months.

-Although I'm not picky, I will be a tiny bit particular about the posts.  All I ask is clear photos and easy to understand directions.  You don't need a fancy camera.

-It can be sewing idea, craft idea... whatever you think will fit in with the theme best.

Sooo... if you have a great idea to go with the theme "Journey" for March, send me an email!!  I'm very excited about doing this!! I'd love to be able introduce more of my readers to each other!!

... now I'm off to take a nap...

You must have had the same storm we did in St. Louis. We're pretty sure a tornado touched down in our neighborhood -- it was definitely a scary night. Glad you're ok!

Whew! glad you are ok. This will be a fun feature on your blog. I sent my daughter your link, she is striving to make a little money with handmade through her etsy store.
