Shared Adventures in the Crafty Blogiverse!

Just messing around with one of the images of "first tulip"! A kind of bouquet, if you will, to two lovely women, Antoinette and Betsy, who have taken time recently to write me and share the results of their own personal new adventures inspired by projects shared here on Gingerbreadsnowflakes.
What especially pleased me is that the projects that provided inspiration are near and dear to my heart, (and as is usually the case with me, not so much "mainstream" popular.)

"Traditionally" April is "recycle" month on gingerbreadsnowflakes; but before one more day of April arrives, I just absolutely MUST share these totally awesome Juletomar. The brilliant designer - Alan Dart!
March: " Christmas UFO" (progress on the Winter Solstice quilt block) and a Brand New WIP (woven bag)

In addition to coloring, knitting and crocheting Easter eggs this month, I have also begun work on a new project and made significant progress on a leftover UFO from Christmas 2012! Thanks to Julie's good example which you will find on her blog The Crafty Quilter, I am back into high gear "making Christmas" and "finishing UFO's and WIP's" !
Start The New Year Right! Come Blog Reading With Me!

Come Blog Reading With Me! Because I have neglected this little series far too long!
In an attempt to keep these posts a little shorter and sweeter this year, I have decided not to gather images from each blog post and write volumes about each blogger. It feels kinda strange. Let me know what you think! I am always open to suggestions!
We will start with crafty goodness!
Nisse Love, Happy 4th Blogiversary to Gingerbread Snowflakes, and a Giveaway!

Arriving just in time to help celebrate my 4th blogiversary - my very own (straight from the hands of a Norwegian craft artist) Nisse couple!
My friend Gill found this totally adorable (and obviously still in love) pair at a craft fair in Norway and decided they needed to travel across the sea to live with me!! I love them to pieces! They sit next to my bed nestled next to a big pile of yarn that is being crocheted and knitted into Christmas gifts!
