One Lovely Blog Award - ;))

Lately I have been BUSY re-arranging stuff -

Trying to get myself organized -

Trying to “de-clutter” my space -

And not blogging or quilting much - ;))

I can't seem to find the time to do everything -

So I'm REALLY behind on what everyone else is working on -

And I need to do some serious blog-browsing -

And I need to get back to work on the stuff on my design wall - ;))

So anyway - last week I received a comment from Lisa J - HERE -

Who was visiting from Chantal’s blog - HERE - ;))

When I finally took a break and checked out Chantal’s blog -

I was surprised to see myself on her list of nominations -

For the One Lovely Blog Award - ;))

THANK YOU!! - Chantal - for the nomination -

And THANK YOU!! - Lisa J - for the visit - ;))

===

I must admit -

And my regular readers already know -

That I have an attitude -

And that my blog may not be the most “Lovely” blog out there -

But I appreciate my readers and their comments -

And I try to find the humor in my mishaps -

So THANK YOU, Chantal for thinking of me and my blog - ;))

===

Anyway - on to the award -

The aim of the award is to tell more about ourselves and, more importantly draw the attention of others to blogs we enjoy reading, and encourage you to check them out.

In order to accept the award the nominated blogger must:

#1 - Thank the person who nominated you and link back to them in your post.
#2 - Share seven facts about yourself.
#3 - Nominate 10 other bloggers for the award.

===

#1 - Thank the person who nominated you and link back to them in your post.
Done and done - ;))

===

#2 - Share seven facts about yourself.

(#1) - I am a semi-private person -
I like to share my quilting projects and adventures on my blog -
But I am not big on sharing my personal non-quilting life -
Nor am I big on sharing other people’s personal lives -
My rule is NOT to share if it’s not MY news to share -
If they want you to know - they will tell you - ;))

(#2) - BOB is my alter ego - Bitchy Old Broad -
BOB and I do not suffer fools gladly -
BOB has her own blog - Quilter BOB - HERE - 
BOB’s adventures are basically rants - some funny - some silly - some stupid - some sad - some just plain bitchy - depending on your point of view - ;))

(#3) - My Applique Masterpiece has no real name - yet -
I simply refer to it as my “Floral Applique” -
It is still just a top -
And except for the last block - it was hand-appliqued -
It has its own page/tab at the top of my blog - ;))

(#4) - My Patchwork/Pieced Masterpiece is my LHQSQ -
Left-Handed Quilter Sampler Quilt -
It is also still just a top -
It is a sampler of Ninety-Nine Nine-patches that I found in EQ7 -
It also has its own page/tab at the top of my blog - ;))

(#5) - I am old school -
I don’t text - Tweet - or do Instagram -
I talk to my friends on the phone - I email - and I blog - ;))

(#6) - I speak mid-20-century English -
When I was in school - “disrespect” was a noun and “reveal” was a verb -
Not the other way around - like it is today -
And I try TO do things -
I do not try AND do things -
Although I may try AND fail -
Because I never really try TO do that - ;))

(#7) - I have mixed emotions about these “Awards” -
I think that they are a great way for us to find and read new blogs -
But they also seem to be blogland’s version of a chain letter -
And I don’t really like chain letters - ;))

OK - that’s seven things about me -

I have almost 1000 posts -
So if you want to know more about me -
I’m sure that you can find something interesting in there somewhere - ;))

And if you REALLY want to get to know me -
Read Quilter BOB -
Start at the beginning -
And read it like a book -
Chapter by chapter -
Post by post - ;))
(A book is like a text - only slower - ;))

===

#3 - Nominate 10 other bloggers for the award.

As A Left-Handed Quilter -
I have to constantly REVERSE IT -
Whatever IT may be -

So here’s where I’m going to switch it up -

There are SOOOOOOO MANY wonderful blogs out there -
That I’m going to REVERSE IT -

If you want to be nominated -

Leave me a comment and say so - ;))

===

Now BOB/I would like to add one more -

#4 - Tell the people you nominate - so that they can say Thank You - ;))

Chantal and I had a very funny -

And very awkward conversation about that - ;))

THANK YOU again - Chantal -

I’m flattered - honored - and all of that stuff - ;))



Talk to you later - gotta go - gotta sew -
