Just a quickie to say I am doing my first giveaway on my blog which includes the union jack makeup bag I made earlier this week. If you are interested in entering just leave a message on my blog (you don't have to be a follower, just a member of blogger).

I'm following your blog - but signed up on my twitter id. Not sure I'm a member of blogger - thought I only needed to sign up if I wanted my own blog. *iz confuzed*.....

Kandi, how do giveaways work? You dont just give stuff away do you?? (I realise the hint should be in the title but Im confused as to what the purpose is (for the giver I mean)...or am i just being thick!??) p.s Found this for you the other day

I've added the followers gadget to my blog now, I've never followed anyone so I didn't bother adding it. I use google reader to keep track of the blogs I read (nearly 200 of them! I must prune some, its getting ridiculous!) so I've never understood how the followers thingy works!

(Sorry my third post in 5 minutes!)

Im completely confused by blogging. I have 8 followers now but how do you know who they are unless their names are the same as on here...or are you not supposed to know anyway? Bring back snail mail, golf ball typewriters and hand written letters!!! Its all tooooo confusing!! :rotfl:

Hi All! Well my 30th Birthday has been and gone and Im now the proud owner of a Brother BC2100. (The free stuff from sewing machines direct is great by the way!) Its just as well as my husband dropped my old seamstress machine (it was so heavy it dented our floor!) and broke off the thingy that you put the thread on!. Im enjoying it a lot, especially the automatic needle threader and top loading bobbin and I cant wait to show you my latest makes with it, just have a few bits to do then will post on some pics. I still have a lot to learn but its a fun process, loving everyones latest makes:T:T:T to all!

Ooh that was the one I fancied then it went up in price. So instead I ordered the Brother ES2020 says it's the same apart from the automatic threader.

Hope you have fun with it. My other sewing machine is 15+yrs old but am saving it so my girls cn use it whilst I am sewing otherwise I would never get anything done lol.

This blogging lark is quite confusing isn't it!
Yes a giveway is just that, I make stuff and give it away! It is a thank you to the people on there who support and encourage me to do stuff and to raise the profile of my blog. It's rather MSE for the followers = free stuff and for me it's a bit of a boost to know that people would actually want my things that I made myself IYKWIM.
