In just 6 sweet days you’ll be able to buy my new (first) book, Crochet Adorned in bookstores.

To celebrate, I’ve arranged a Blog Book Tour! Several crafty ladies will be posting interviews, reviews, projects and, giveaways! Here’s the lineup so far. I’ll also update the blog with links to each post as they go up so that you’ll have lots of chances to see more of the book and maybe even win a copy.
