I fantasize about putting these in the toilets at airports, but I haven't done so far. I either plum forget or don't have time (= courage).
So, that's a little update on that. Not as much doing as I'd like. How about you?

Thank you to all of our finalists, they were all so talented it was so hard to pick just one. And thank you to everyone who entered - I was blown away by how imaginative, fun, talented and silly you all can be! :) I can't say thank you enough to everyone who made this contest possible, including: Jenny Hart, all the Feeling Stitchy bloggers new and old: Jessie, Jackie, Eydie, Sally, Carina, Pam, and Amy.
But most of all, thanks to all of you! It's you who keep us going and keep the crafting community generous, fun, and filled with new ideas. That's what the embroidery group is about and what Feeling Stitchy is about - sharing what you've made and inspiring each other to do more... thanks! :)

Last week you saw all of the finalists banners in action and learned about each of them (thank you Jessie, for interviewing everyone!) Now it's time to cast your vote in our sidebar - you have one week to vote! The winner and finalists will receive some wonderful prizes.
Thank you to everyone who contributed designs to our competition, and even if your design was not chosen - please leave it in the pool! I have a surprise related to that which I'll reveal soon... :)
Here's one last look at the 5 finalists chosen by Jenny Hart (and their interviews):
Good luck to all of our finalists!

This is precisely why I craft and why Feeling Stitchy is such a blast to maintain. We ask for more entries, and you, being such wonderful, cool, last minute crafters, deliver! :) We now have so many amazing entries that narrowing them down to 5 finalists will be difficult... which is why the goddess of embroidery herself, Ms. Jenny Hart, is doing the narrowing down for us! (Thank you Jenny, again, it's an honor to have your help.)
Stay tuned while we find our 5 finalists and interview them. Here's what will happen very soon:
Want to see all the entries? Here they are! Thank you, everyone, for making this contest so fun and such a success!

I hope you don't mind me taking the liberty of calling you "elves" but you certainly are crafty! :) Yesterday I was thinking of postponing the competition deadline because there were only 8 entries... all really, really good entries, but I had a feeling there would be a few more... maybe you were all busy with summer activities. Lo and behold, this morning I see 15!
2 Day Extension: for last-minute crafters!
Maybe some of you are last-minute crafters (like me)? People who stay up all night the night before a deadline, anxiously crafting away. People who stare at their half-finished masterpiece sadly, thinking, "if only I'd started this eight hours earlier..." Does anyone need an extension? If so, I am offering an extra 2 days to complete your masterpiece. Remember, you are welcome to enter more than once, and we welcome all skill levels! Can we get 20 entries in this contest in 2 more days? I think so. Remember the cool prizes? Come on, last-minute crafty peeps, and stitch our banner! :)
Here are some more fun and talented entries to inspire you:
