early spring news

Bloggy tidbits today, along with some spring-inspired artwork.

Springnews1

Artwork by  Gertrude Alice Kay  from my "Magic Spectacles" desk calendar.

Places to visit: some new crafty blogs! She's already on my list, but check out Making Time if you haven't already. Heather is living in Japan (lucky!) and learning Japanese through crafting. Comfrey Green, in addition to being a great name, is the new blog belonging to Sue, who I mentioned in this post. Finally, Rohlings Studios is Claudia's very new blog...great photography! All worth a look!

Springnews2

Partial image from All Wrapped Up! Artist Gitta Mallasz had an incredible life.

Other blog news: Amy is putting together another ATC swap, this time the theme is SPRING. All of the cards for the Valentine's swap were amazing, so get into this one if you're able.

The Alien Invasion has hit Monster Crochet! Regina did an amazing job putting together the entries and voting form - check it out, and vote!

Springnews3

From the out-of-print book "Bird, Beast and Flower", artwork by Marie Angel.

I thought I was being clever suggesting this, but of course, someone actually did it! Thanks to everyone who pointed this guys pictures out!

Finally, and least important, the gadget of the week (from a non-gadget kinda gal). I just really like it, especially since I'm not allowed to surf at work.
