Now that I have an Oliso though I'm good to go.

I would suggest entering fabric giveways, maybe? I have been lucky enough to win in the past, and now I host one each weekend for my readers and you can find many more linked up each month on Craft Buds ( http://www.craftbuds.com/giveaway-roundup/ ). If I hear of any beginner blog-hops, I'll be sure to let you know. I wish I had the time to start one, it's such a great idea!! Maybe find one sew-along and go from there?<br /><br />I wish I could be more helpful! xx MaureenMaureen Cracknell Handmadehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03533566766276588176noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3133349480262766438.post-69765699140989403542013-01-07T17:11:39.752-05:002013-01-07T17:11:39.752-05:00That sounds like a pretty nifty iron!

I have been a follower of yours for a...Hi, Maureen. I have been a follower of yours for about 7 months now and I love everything that you do. I started my blog last year and never really did anything with it because I didn't have a machine or necessary items needed to sew with and join in on all the fun you guys have. It has taken me several months to gather those items and am ready to start my blogging journey. My question is this: do you know of any say, beginner blog-hops that have frequent contests where it is possible to win some fabric? I have a small stash that I've been working on these last several months. I would like to enter some blog-hops, but I'm afraid if I start and am not able to replenish, then i'll just be stuck. Any suggestions would be helpful, thanks:)Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16421653276154927969noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3133349480262766438.post-62107931441546771622013-01-07T14:58:11.833-05:002013-01-07T14:58:11.833-05:00nice iron...I have been eyeing one of those!!! l...nice iron...I have been eyeing one of those!!! lolMarjorie's Busy Cornerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06652147996698707692noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3133349480262766438.post-87786868505987713332013-01-07T14:44:59.293-05:002013-01-07T14:44:59.293-05:00My Rowenta kicked the bucket right before Christma...My Rowenta kicked the bucket right before Christmas.
