handmade pay it forward! 2012 edition

UGH!  i can't figure out this new layout on blogger!  i know it will pass & i will remember where all the buttons are & what they do but this is so much more different...

anywho, i saw this off a fellow bloggers page today & i'm participating in the 2012 pay it forward... handmade edition. 

the rules are as follows (i copied them off of kathleen's blog, which by-the-way, you should totally follow if you are a crochet lover, she makes the neatest stuffs!):

1.  I will send a gift to the first three commenters on this post. The gift will be handmade by me.  It will be sent sometime in the next 365 days. It will be a surprise.  {if i haven't sent you something made by me in the next 6mths please remind me, i tend to forget stuff!  :o)}

2. To sign up and receive a gift, you have to play along too. Pay it Forward on your blog by promising to make a surprise for the first three people who comment on your post.

3. You must have a blog, as I will blog stalk you, cackling with glee all the while, to find the right gift for you.
4. After commenting here, please repost this or something similar to your blog in 48 hours.  If not, I'll chose the next person who comments. Fair is fair is fair, right?!?

now, on that note, if i don't get 3 peeps to do this & only one or two of you want to participate, i will send you the other one or two handmade gifts.  so start paying it forward so you can get in on the fun!!!  :o)
