Make sure to check her blog out for all things vintage, fashionable and crafty! (Is this not just the cutest little Bluebird Bunting? ;) Thanks again, Jill, for all of the encouragement!
2) Done!
3) Jill's Questions:
What was your favorite toy to play with growing up?
Does a little sister count? Otherwise, I think it was a toss up between the play kitchen and the overflowing dress up box...the two of us spent hours days months years playing the most imaginative games together!
If you could try any sport you’ve never played, what would it be?
I've always been interested in archery!
In what kind of setting is your dream house located?
Honestly, it often changes from day to day. Right now I'd say near the ocean - with large, glass, floor-to-ceiling windows looking out onto the most beautiful, endless seascape.
What is the last color nail polish that you painted your toes?
The gaudiest of bright reds.
If you could change one thing about your blog that is beyond your control, what would it be?
Hmm, that's hard...perhaps receiving more feedback from readers? It sounds silly, but I just smile whenever I hear from someone!
What is something you would like to be better about doing by this time next year?
Without doubt, I would love to have more confidence and less fear of mistakes when it comes to sewing!
Have you ever help rescue a sick or injured animal?
I have a soft spot for all creatures, especially feline friends! However, I can only think of two injured animals - a sparrow and a praying mantis - that my family and I were able to help.
You wake up in the morning and open your eyes, what is the next thing you do?
Smile widely, try to remember the date, and then, proceed to launch a search mission for my glasses!
If you had to choose between never smiling again or always having a bad hair day, which would you choose?
Definitely the never-ending bad hair day - I'm smiling now just thinking about it!
If you could call one person right now and tell them you love them, who would you call?
My mom, hands down, the most supportive person in my life.

I loved reading your answers! Thank for doing this! I am so jealous about number 1. I grew up with three brothers and I used to cry and beg my parents for a little sister.
ReplyDeleteThanks, Jill! Wow, three brothers, what fun you all must have had! (And here, some days, I thought getting along with one sibling was hard...) Regardless, in the wise words of my next door neighbor & mother of nine, "siblings, you don't have to like them, but you do have to love them."
DeleteThank you very much for the nomination, Anneliese! :)
ReplyDeleteBest,
Quinn
You're so welcome, Quinn! You're so talented & such an inspiration to so many seamstresses out there - please keep doing what you do best! Anneliese :)
