Sweet Goodness Swap

So, the lovely ladies from Sweet Goodness Swaps generously let me and my mother join their latest swap ,you can visit there site here: http://sweetgoodnessswaps.blogspot.com/
We have one swap partner for three months ! How cool is that?! I am sending my partners stuff probably tomorrow so I will post pics after I know she has got it :)

I made a promise to myself that I am going to update my blogs that I visit , because since I started doing this I have made lots of new blog friends :) aaand I want to feature some of my favorite sellers on Etsy and some cool websites that I have come across,stay tuned for some new stuff :)

Also, to touch a little on my daughter's eosinophiloc disorder, did anyone watch the interview that Matt Lauer did with a little boy from London who's allergic to almost all foods? He had Eosinophilic Entropothy (sp?) in other words he has the same thing as my daughter only worse!
I was sooo happy for the exposure! I really wish that they would have interviewed someone form the states and told about the hospitals here that can help, and I wish they would have done a more in depth story but of course I would , I want a cure!!!!

Wooo,I haven't posted in a while, October is a busy month in our town, and I have been setting up a new shop on Etsy called HMBM (handmade by me) It's all the stuff I like to make but doesn't fit in with my dottielouknits shop. I have been having so much fun making things for this shop, I have had a renewed sense of things lately, I hope it lasts...lol! Anyhoo...this is one of my handdyed scarves, I machine embroidered the ends so they wouldn't fray but kept it unfinished so it looks very casual . I really love these, I'm going to make more really soon.
