Ah Dizzytina, she is so sweet, how old is she?
The skirt is really lovely, I've said it before but as much as I love having a boy I do wish that boy clothing was a bit more interesting. I haven't been inspired to make anything for him to wear yet.

If you want boys clothes this is a great place to start they spent a whole month blogging ideas for boys as there are too many ideas for girls!

I did make that coaster the other night, I had a bit of trouble with the corners but I was quite happy with it overall. I promise to post pics soon.
These last few days I have been busy turning my yo yo's into hairslides and brooches, I did go a bit mad and I don't quite know what I will do with these all, more pics on blog but you get the idea:

No problem, ok from your main blog page,
top right, click on customise,
select layout,
then in the box to the right of your blog posts, click add a gadget,
scroll down to picture, click on the cross next to it,
then give it a title eg.'Such and Such's Giveaway'
caption, eg 'ends 6th July'
click on link and copy and paste their address into here,
click browse to add a picture (you must copy their picture from their blog first to your computer - right click on it and save picture as).
Then Click on Save.
Now move it to where you want it to be in the list and preview to see if you are happy with it, if so save it and that should work.
If not shout up!
