I'm really excited to announce that Hazelnuts will be hosting Tina Givens as part of her book tour for "Sew Tina! 30 Cute Projects and Adorable Décor Items for Kids"
I'm scheduled towards the beginning of October and will fill you all in on the details closer to the time, but I'll be grilling Tina about the book as well as doing a giveaway and I'm going to whip up one of the projects from the book too. Let me tell you, it was hard choosing which one and I mean that. So more details to come but it's something to look forward to in a month! Better get sewing...
This morning at 4:30 Christchurch was hit by a 7.1 magnitude earthquake. That's pretty big and it's done a lot of damage. Auckland's just over 1,000km from ChCh and we had a big storm going on so I doubt I would have felt it anyways, but it's a very sobering reminder of exactly where I live and that it's very tectonically active! Not that I could really forget, considering I see extinct volcanic cones every day...
