Crafty in the Med

I am here to enjoy meeting other bloggers and to share my love of craft ,mostly crochet, my thoughts and my daily happenings here in Alicante,Spain, my adopted country. I belong to a local choir because singing and music makes me happy. Flea markets and book shops are two of my favourite places to be. I read lots......sci´fi/fantasy,buried treasure, and off world adventures. I have a passion for history! I walk and walk and walk for about 10 months per year during the hot months I swim.

I found them!!!



A post in haste!!! 

 I really should not be doing this because I have a class to prepare for this afternoon and must rush, rush, rush!!!  
However I'm so happy to have found my bunting that I want to share it with you! It is all thanks to Linda at Linda'scraftycorner  who uploaded multiple photos of Yarndale to her latest post and lo and behold there they are....my triangles laid out on the table next to Lucy from Attic 24,"The Queen of Colour".

Following Yarndale and OUR bunting!



 SIX THOUSAND TRIANGLES!!!!!

This is to congratulate and thank Lucy the Queen of Colour at Attic24 for her initiative,her marvellous idea and the arduous undertaking of setting up a handmade yarn bunting to be displayed at Yarndale being held TODAY in Yorkshire in England.
A bunting made and sent in from crafters from all over the WORLD.

What a tremendous success!  What a great way to bring people together.


sharing from the Yarndale facebook page 28th Sept 2013
There we are peeps representing and participating in colour our unity for yarn,crafts and the handmade. We herald our love for yarn,our love for colour, our love for beauty and demonstrating that craft breaks the language barrier because that bunting is a message that can be understood by all.

What does it say to you?


I feel so good inside to see it,I feel just a little bit of me is there, I feel I belong,I feel the admiration of thousands of yarn lovers admiring OUR bunting!!!!   I feel it is a tremendous achievement to have brought together so many many people through the creation of this bunting.


I am also going to commiserate with those peeps ,like my self, who cannot visit Yarndale today 
We who have to view and glean what is happening in Yarndale from afar can do so hoping that a photo or two may appear on the following blogs or facebook pages:

 If I find any other appropriate links I'll post more throughout the day.

Being very selfish can I just remind you this is my participation,my set of bunting triangles and I really don't know if it arrived safely and if it is being displayed with the rest...I can just imagine and hope it is.

Should you be at Yarndale today and see the fishes,whale,sun and beach on blue bunting please send or post a photo.    I shall love you forever :-)

I wonder if this will be the longest Yarn bunting in the world????    If it is it should be registered in the Guinness Book of records!
I WISH!

Wishing all you Yarndalers a great time!

Amanda :-)
