Only 4 days to go......

....and Wow! lots of new followers!

Friends, it is just 4 days until the 20th and the draw for the giveaway.  I sincerely appreciate the lovely compliments you have given me about the gifts – they are so very encouraging.  And I thank those of you who put a link on your blog about it – it wasn't a condition of entry  but again was appreciated.  And it has certainly resulted in heaps of new followers!

Welcome to all those new followers  –

My dear friend Jan from Bundy, who has been faithfully following both my blogs right from the beginning but has now formalised the relationship lol!

I hope you have all enjoyed what you have seen on the blog so far and that you will visit often and keep sharing feedback with me.

I have visited all the blogs of people who have links on their profile and I am just blown away by the beautiful blogs and the lovely minis that you make.   It makes me so happy to be able to be a part of this wonderful world of mini bloggers.  Thank you again for your feedback, your kindness and for the inspiration I get from seeing your work.  Most of all, thank you for your encouragement  - it makes me want to keep on even when I feel I have no mini energy so I can share with you how things turn out!

And so – in a couple of weeks at the most (once I finish this second swap piece I am working on) I hope to be back into full-on minis: what will it be:

-        -  finishing Birchwood?

-       -   finishing the Orchard House/scullery/etc combo?

-        -  Barnacle Cottage?

-         - starting on one of the new Petite Properties kits that are winging their way to me right now? Or one of those in my stash?

-         - Debbie Young’s John F Craig mansion?

-        - Pickett Hill?

-       -  or maybe The Black Swan Guesthouse, made from scratch based on an historic inn in rural New South Wales that I love to look at each time we pass? I have already made a card mock-up of my ambitious plans for this project.

At the moment I have no idea which it will be or even if it will be something totally different so as usual – stay tuned :)

And now the countdown continues.......
