covert robin: guest co-hosts

well, folks... that was an incredibly difficult decision to make. when i asked you to convince me, you brought your A game! in fact, i didn't even attempt to narrow it down to one... so we have three guest co-hosts, bringing our co-host team to ten lovely ladies!!

Stephanie . The Crafty Kitty 

Stephanie adds another international co-host to our list... which prompted me to look up this list of british words not commonly used in the us. a few favorites: kerfuffle, muppet, plonk, pukka, jumper, and blimey. i will now attempt to use them to tell you about Stephanie. warning: this could get ugly. you may want to cover your eyes.

blimey! Stephanie will be co-hosting the covert robin, and she's no muppet. i've heard she likes the plonk, though. i hope it doesn't cause a kerfuffle while she's sewing... because her jumpers are pukka! also, she tells me that when things are fiddly, one might have to do a little jiggery-pokery to make it work.

Stephanie blogs at The Crafty Kitty and is also the owner of Stitch Organics, an organic haberdashery for the modern sewist.

Clara . Clover & Violet

Clara is the mother of the mother/daughter team at Clover & Violet. along with her daughter, Jennie, she blogs about patchwork, embroidery, quilting, designing, and other things crafty. Clara's also a grandma (i think our only grandma co-host... and i have a soft spot for grandmas!) and an avid gardener.

the lovely Clover & Violet ladies also design patchwork bags and embroidery quilts... you can check out the Clover & Violet pattern shop here.

Melissa . a happy stitch

i must confess that Melissa won me over with her claim she's a "born and bred Midwest girl so I am nice and prompt but I live in New Jersey now so that means I have a bit of a cynical edge that is mostly funny. So, I will be polite, prompt and make you laugh!" how can i say no to that? also, i was hoping to add someone to the co-hosting list who is completely new to me.

Melissa also runs the a happy stitch etsy shop, where she sells patterns and handmade wares. oh, and she has a fisher price doppelgänger. in case you were wondering.


so there they are, folks! the covert robin guest co-hosts! sign-ups will be open later today. yay mystery!
