Hello

As I flit about Blogger, learning the ins and outs of the platform, I am feeling excited about the possibilities and the Things that I will learn along the 23 Things journey. As a member of the support team, I will participate along with the rest of NBPLS staff.

When not at work, I am interested in textiles - all things fiber related; like knitting, sewing, weaving, and upcycled crafts. This blog will focus on these things, while maintaining a library link; I will include possible programming, promotions, and cool ideas in general.

Check out this amazing yarn-bombed set of stairs at the Helsinki Cathedral in Finland. Image yarn-bombing something outside of your library as a means of fun promotion. Imagine hosting a program where you plan a yarn-bomb event whereby you plan and create the piece. Fun!

  1. I've always admired people who can do crafty things. I'm totally useless when working with my hands, but I appreciate the creativity and practicality of people who do.

  4. You have some very handy, i.e., handicraft interests it must keep you busy! Anyhow, good luck with 23 Things. This is my "brownie point" activity for week 1, i.e, commenting at or about someone else's blog.
