feeling honored

Dawn Brocco is one of the nicest people I've ever had the pleasure to meet (albeit through the interwebs, and when I had my shop). Now she has topped even her own niceness and graced me with the Kreativ Blogger Award!

Thank you so much, Dawn.

Readers: you should go to Dawn's blog and check the company she put me in. Oh. My.

As per the rules, I need to nominate 8 blogs.Here are the rules for the nominees:

1. Copy the award to your site.

2. Link to the person from whom you received the award.

3. Nominate 8 other bloggers.

4. Link to those on your blog.

5. Leave a message on the blogs you nominated.

I hereby nominate (in no particular order!) -- truth be told, it was hard to choose. There is so incredibly much creativity out there, expressed in words, photographs, work, caring, knitting, child rearing, cooking, ... well, here's my selection.

Leah's Our Yellow House -- just read read the blog for a week, and you'll see that 'creativity' doesn't begin to cover it.

Amy's Bag of Chocolates -- she knits, she bakes, she makes cards, she translates. I'm sure I've missed something.

habit. There is no comment section on there, but I have grown addicted to reading it.

Contemporary Textile Art. I don't think Lisa knows I'm a reader. I admire the discipline she brings to her work.

Mare's Moon & Stars Studio -- everything Mare makes is made with her heart, not just her hands.

near:far -- a project by Kyrie and Grace, whose blogs you may know. There is a strong quiet creativity at work here.

Mason Dixon. I just had to throw in these two lovely ladies, whom I met at Rhinebeck last year. They knit, they quilt, they sing, and keep us in stitches all the while.

And for sheer spinning, dyeing, and sock knitting madness, check out Socks Street. Let the pictures speak for themselves, if you don't read German.

That's my list.
Now go nominate some of your own faves!
