I posted my scissors and Meadow Breeze to the Flickr groups and blogged about both of them. I wish I knew how to post the buttons. I only know how when the code is already written for me. ;) I guess I could work on learning how--that's a good next project. :)

Well I linked to your flickr page and posted my scissors photo. I'm trying to put your button on my sidebar but I can't figure it out. I think I need a url to do it. How do I find that?

Posted scissor round up on my sidebar. Thanks for hosting a giveaway will post picture of mine soon.

Posted a link on my sidebar for the scissor roundup. Keep seeing your name on facebook it is about time I visited your blog!
Posted by: Jennifer | Friday, August 13, 2010 at 09:16 PM
I didn't post all my scissors, just the ones I use most often near my sewing machine. There are some huge scissor collections out there :)
Posted your button in my blog post with a link to the flickr group.
lots of fun, Pat!

I've posted my scissor stash (Scissors 033)
The three on the bottom are for: (from left to right) Bonsai trimming but are great sharp snips for applique, disposable surgery scissors that have a long sharp cutting nose, and scissors from a beading kit with an attached cover and a permanent ring (near the handle) just add a ribbon to wear. Thanks for the challenge

Very interesting and inspiring...now to get my 3 yr old interested in something else besides pulling everything off of my sewing table...I might be able to get something done!

I posted a photo of my scissors on the flicker site and on my blog and am so tickled with myself that I figured it all out!!!
Posted by: Quilter Kathy | Thursday, August 12, 2010 at 07:48 PM
I posted a photo of my scissors. Who knew there were so many, and I am sure there are 1/2 dozen more that are missing. I didn't even go out to the garage to see what my hubby is hoarding out there, lol!

Woooo. I have posted a photo of my scissors(less my missing Green paper scissors) and am looking forward to a few days catching up on MB. Wet weather here will be ideal for a catchup!!!!

purple is my favorite color! I love Cindy's meadow!
Posted by: Linda | Wednesday, August 11, 2010 at 06:38 PM
You do have the best blog! Too bad I only found it a couple of weeks ago. I am going to make Meadow Breeze (I love applique!), but I haven't had time to start yet. So I won't have a picture to share for a while. Dang it!
Posted by: Merry G. | Wednesday, August 11, 2010 at 01:49 PM
I posted a button on my facebook for the MB. You have so many wonderful things going on, I don't know where to leave all the coments. I will get out my scissors later. Then on to listen to the radio show. What Fun! When do you ever sew?
Posted by: Lynda M | Wednesday, August 11, 2010 at 11:26 AM
OH my goodness...you have so much going on here!
I just finished listening to the Leslie Riley podcast and it was fabulous. I got a little behind over the holidays, but you just know I'll listen to every show and get caught up when the kids go back to school.
I will try to gather up my scissors and take a photo.

Intriguing. Love a bit of a mystery.

Wow!!! So much going on this week. That Meadow Breeze is gorgeous!

I can't do catch up... but I need to... off to Italy on Friday for the rest of the month ... poor me :)
