I am nominated for Liebster Blog Award

I have been blogging about humble sewing experience for about 2 and a half years and never really thought about receiving any rewards or awards simply because my reward is when others enjoy my work.

Liebster Award, Wait! What?

Ever since I started linking up with other talented (much more talented than I am) bloggers, I have made many new friends.  Today on my Facebook page, I was notified that I have been nominated for a Liebster Blog Award by
