A very BAD Blogger

I have come to realize I am a HORRIBLE blogger! Now, I pretty much knew this would happen heading into this endeavor, alas I wanted to make a blog to promote my crochet work. Other blogs are marvelous! My friend Colleen Berge writes a fan-TAB-ulous blog; it's poetic, profound and stunning, her writing can inspire anyone! As you may have read in a previous blog post the reason for promoting said work is so I can stay home to raise our daughter and hopefully have more children in the future (whether it be through adoption or fostering)

So, here we are. I have 6 followers (Thank you ever so kindly!) and the last blog post I did was in December. EPIC fail!

..........Pick myself up, dust myself off and start again...........

Round 2: I am now committing (hopefully) to really give this blog thing a second change or rather hoping this blog thing will give ME a second chance!

I have now changed my template and I think it is lovely, provided FREE from a friend of mine. You can find her blog (and it is a GOOD one) here: Simply Fabulous Blogger Templates
And I am writing and posting with renewed vim and vigor! (whatever "vim" is I hope to have it!)

I am currently working on making 20 Ballerina Bears for a perky dance teacher who needs them by June. I figured this would be the opportune time to try my hand at writing a pattern! YAY! AND in doing so, I need people to test it out! Yes if you are a fellow crocheter this means YOU! (cheers and applause!) I will be (in the VERY near future) posting this FREE crochet pattern on this blog. And then I shall ask YOU, the wonderful crocheters, to test it out and let me know how it works for you. I have no problems following my own pattern (go figure!) but I need to make sure others are able to as I hope to sell it on my Etsy site found here: www.megnmar.etsy.com (shameless plug I know)

Hopefully this will generate more traffic to my shop and thus more sales of my wonderful items! To all of you who are reading this (all SIX followers) please tell EVERY person you know about my wonderful *ahem* made-over blog and my new commitment to blogging. I shall also post some new pics (which I am sure most of you have already enjoyed) just so this post will have a bit of flare!

Until next time........which I hope will be very, very soon!
