Wowsers!!!! I don’t know about you but I am still overwhelmed from reading all of the wonderful entries last week! We had such a great time sharing with the Steemit world why we love #NeedleWorkMonday, the people who inspire us and why others should join us every Monday!
I didn’t call this a competition but rather a challenge. There was no way I could have judged those entries. Each one was special and written straight from the hearts of the needleworkers and that’s just something you can’t put a place on. Instead @crystalize used a random number generator to pick the receivers of the SBD. The winners are as follows:
- 15 SBD goes to @akipponn
- 10 SBD goes to @carolinacardoza
- 5 SBD goes to @mtnmeadowmomma
- 3 SBD goes to @xorexman
- 2 SBD goes to @tali72
Congratulations to each of you that had their name drawn!! Please check your wallets because your SBD is there!! 😃
Thank you to all of you that participated with wonderful write ups! I hope you had just as much fun as I did!!
Baby Blanket Update!
I am thrilled to report I am finished crocheting the blanket and am now working on the edging!! Whooo Hooo!! Finally!! I am so glad I went with @elew’s advice to crochet over my ends instead of sewing all of them in. It would have taken ages to get that done because there were tons of them if you remember...
I kept the knots on them to make sure the blanket does not unravel. Once I wash it that should help seal those ends in for good keeping them from peaking out.
For the edging I first did a round of single crochet over the entire blanket (3 sc in each corner). Then for round two I chained 3, skipped the next stitch and slip stitched into the next. I have two more sides to do before it’s completed. I’ll then show you the blanket in it’s entirety.
My God, what a beautiful surprise, I was casually doing my post this week for needleworkmonday and I got this super surprise, thank you very much, thank you very much to your community, thank you for existing in my life, may God bless you and I fill them with much health to continue acdelante together, in this wonderful world called steemit.

A big congrats to our winners!, I count it a privilege and so much fun and a bit of a task tho , because I had to really dig deep to see more than what I knew about some people I wrote about. It made me learn more about others and even those I didnt even know of
Reading others post was also fun. More Grace @crosheille and @crystalize thanks for your graciousness😘😘
Also crocheting the ends turned out nice, I like the out look although the sewing in method I dunno how that was gonna look anyway. Wow we are so ready for this baby!

Oh! to be honest, I did not expect at all. Thank you very much for your attention to me !!!!! I congratulate the other girls who received prizes !!! when I read the posts for this contest, I saw that everyone found for themselves someone whose work inspires him; there are already groups of girls collected according to their common interests. it's very good since we can share with each other, who has similar directions in needlework, their ideas, misses and successes. Cynthia, you're done! you still almost finished it! Hurrah Hurrah!!!!!
