She is one of the owners of the blog Leamon Tree Card Blogs. She is just so funny and has the greatest personality. I think we could be great friends in real life as well.<br /><br />I also wanted to follow your blog, but couldn't find a place to follow you. I read you where having trouble with that, so I am inviting you to visit me untill you get it all fixed. I am at http://asavingmomssanity.blogspot.com<br /><br />I am also a crochet person. The difference is that I am not as good as you are. LOL! I am working on a vintage Christaning gown at the moment. I hope to have pictures up soon!Joshlinhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08611693321110041614noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6820099952986761054.post-44065105585254700862010-06-27T21:59:54.423-04:002010-06-27T21:59:54.423-04:00I've posted to my blog at

I'd seen a couple of his posts in a Sci-Fi group we both belonged to, and some of the stories seemed pretty familiar. Sure enough it was my buddy Pat, who pretty much got me thru high school when I'd moved from THE City to THE Sticks and hated it. We got together a couple times and still stay in touch.Kitten With a Whiplashhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03398822257651862516noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6820099952986761054.post-75573742737542804812010-06-26T00:06:03.428-04:002010-06-26T00:06:03.428-04:00Tracy got here first!

We've talked yarn, schools, kids, food, politics, healthcare, you name it! Every day I look forward to our chats in IM, I couldn't imagine life without them. My dream is to have them both here at the same time as my guests!Krochet Krystalhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11591156386992224301noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6820099952986761054.post-5149933066149485422010-06-25T11:56:30.273-04:002010-06-25T11:56:30.273-04:00I haven't met anyone in person yet, but I real...I haven't met anyone in person yet, but I really want to! I'm hoping to meet some fellow ravelers at Rhinebeck (are you going?!) and you and I have tentative plans to meet the next time you're here. Other ravelers I really want to meet are KellyInTexas, Carolina22, Jocelyn, KnitterlyAnne, Ktyfamily (and I'd be happy to meet her in Paris, where she lives), nhsarab, and perches. OR any other of my friends.Lorihttp://www.timethrums.com/blog/noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6820099952986761054.post-65594128466418735612010-06-25T11:56:30.274-04:002010-06-25T11:56:30.274-04:00What a thoughtful, generous idea, Tammy.

Two that are at the top of my list are Wendy in Australia and Krystal in USA (and I think we should do a roadtrip when I get there to meet more from the group). I chat to them practically every day and I would be lost without them. We work together and encourage each other with our personal projects, too.tracyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17627490030055362796noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6820099952986761054.post-2960801607599514012010-06-25T11:52:55.868-04:002010-06-25T11:52:55.868-04:00Tammy, you have some lovely yarns.

I live in the UK and my online friends are my best friends, choosing only one to visit is too difficult, but the two I am hoping to meet are Wendy in Australia and Krystal in USA (and I vote we do a roadtrip to meet some of the others in the group). We do a few projects together and we also have lots of different ones and we chat mostly via MSN. They are the great to chat to and make me laugh and cheer me up.tracyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17627490030055362796noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6820099952986761054.post-52426219551086419702010-06-25T10:54:44.070-04:002010-06-25T10:54:44.070-04:00Oh, how lovely!
