Hey, I managed to get another pattern out (fin-al-ly!), so it's time for another draw for a free pattern zine. The pattern is my fair weather jacket in children sizes 2-4 (for now). To enter, please tell me your favorite funny blog (I'm feeling like I need a good laugh lately). Bonus points for it also being crafty (though no one is counting ;)) Leave a comment with a link and I'll do another random number draw for the winner on thursday evening after the kids go to bed.Good luck!

ReplyDeleteI"m not sure how I came about this blog but this lady is a very funny and talented writer and her crafts are great too! :)http://vintagericrac.blogspot.com/
My favorite blog:
ReplyDeletehttp://secret-agent-josephine.com/blog/
She's been on vacation for the last month, and has had guest bloggers. But if you go back a month, you can see what she does. She's not really a crafty blog, but she does sometimes do crafty things and posts about them.
That pattern looks awesome! I hope I win! I have two favourite funny blogs:

(which is about knitting) and
http://crackskullbob.squarespace.com/journal/
which is by an artist.
Crazy aunt Purl. Funny, crafty and tipsy all at once; you can hear her southern accent in her writing:

Cute jacket, though my kids are older, I love giving gifts.
Thanks for the tutes!
Aaaw, looks like my all-time favorite funny blog has already been nominated! But seriously, cakewrecks.blogspot.com is always worth a laugh.
ReplyDeleteAaaah! I've been waiting for this for a long time!!! Thank you!
ReplyDeleteMy favourite funny blog is www.dooce.com, because I don't think you can count www.theonion.com as a blog!
Oh my word! I must make that coat for my daughter! When will it be above size 4?
ReplyDeleteThis "Cake Wrecks" blog is hilarious, and in particular this post cracks me up: http://cakewrecks.blogspot.com/2008/06/naked-mohawk-baby-carrot-jockeys.html
http://failblog.org/ is hysterical too.
I've been waiting for you to post this pattern--in fact I was premptively shopping for fabric last night! Not at all craft-related, but I've been grooving on xkcd lately:
ReplyDeletehttp://xkcd.com
I don't read any funny blogs, guess I need to start!
ReplyDeleteI love that jacket pattern... of course it's hard to tell because the picture is so darn cute. This is the problem with kids' things; do I like the coat or do I want to eat up the adorable child?
ReplyDeleteMy favorite funny blog is definitely the Yarn Harlot (knitting) http://www.yarnharlot.ca
I don't know of any craft funny blogs. I really like http://failblog.org/ and go there when I need a laugh. The jacket looks great and I hope to win so I can try it with my daughter before she out grows size 4.
ReplyDeleteIm so excited. I've been waiting for this pattern to come out! I dont have a funny blog post to share. Ill keep looking. But I just wanted to stop by and say that I promise to buy one soon. Maybe I can talk hubby into getting it for me as part of an early birthday gift.
ReplyDeleteHey Vegbee! It's been so long since I've been on Craftsters but I've been stalking you on your blog! So glad to see you steppin' up. I wish you great success! The last good crafty blog laugh I had was here:

i guess i have some new blogs to check out. but i have been enjoying this blog, http://borrowedlight.blogspot.com/
ReplyDeletenot much crafting, but pretty funny.
Oh wow that jacket is adorable, I would love to make one of those for my girls!
ReplyDeletehttp://stuffwhitepeoplelike.com/ is somewhat polarizing, but i generally find it hilarious--mostly because a lot of it describes me spot-on. (the white girl blushes at how trite she is...)
ReplyDeletecongrats on another great pattern! can't wait to sew one up!
if by chance you have a nerdy side to your sense of humor then check out neatorama.com for totally random stuff that is often funny. not crafty though, but still good. i love this jacket!!
ReplyDeleteWow, I can't believe I'm the first to post this one, but this guy actually lives only a few miles from us, and his wire objects are amazing (and funny). Take a look in the archives.

I personally think that www.ithinkwereallbozos.com is hysterical. Also, I love the tutes! Been dying to have some sewing time to accomplish them!
ReplyDeleteI see Cake Wrecks has already been listed...several times! But, it's totally worth a look. It's one where you can't read just one post, you have to go back and read every single one! Way cute pattern!
ReplyDeleteThis blog isn't necessarily a funny blog, but today's post on A Feathered Nest gave me a good laugh! http://projectsforyournest.blogspot.com/2008/09/too-bad-there-wasnt-video-camera.html
ReplyDeleteThe funniest one I have found is http://happymealsandhappyhour.blogspot.com/. Today, there is a tribute to 9/11. However, on the other days ... just read her 09/05/2008 posting about breaking up with the gym.
ReplyDeleteLove your ideas. I look forward to them! -- Michele
