OK, so although I am the first to say that I am no superwoman - I have decided that I am in fact ...."elastic woman".
I just keep on stretching, and fitting in more stuff. The list is keeping me in line, if not quite up-to-date. There is so very much to do between now and May 5th and of course I have just performed the biggest stretch of all, and gone back to the day job. (sheesh it takes up some time).
But you know, all the busyness is fun in that kind of crazy way - I don't do so well with nothing to do -and the librarian in me revels in the lists and checklists, and ticking boxes nature of it all.
and now I am ticking the give away box.
I have two tickets to the show in Melbourne to give away.
The Stitches and Craft show is in Caulfield may 5 - 9th, so if you are planning on going or if a free ticket will help you make up your mind-please leave a comment(and make sure I can reply to you). I think I'll give two people one ticket each...
(I'll be doing another giveaway for people who can't make the show soon as well I promise)
Give-away one ....... Tick !
testing testing
ReplyDeletehehe! If you can supply the room and board for the time I'll be there, then yes, send me the ticket!! Still deciding.... might have to check Tiger airways, see if they have any of those $10 plane tickets!
ReplyDeleteI love love love the little jacket.
ReplyDeleteI have not made it to the Stitches and Craft Show before, but have read such good things - count me in to the draw!
Just decide which day I wanted to go! What stall will you be at because I'm coming to visit! Love the little characters at the top as well. Love to see you there too Selina.
ReplyDeleteOh oh oh!
ReplyDeleteCOUNT ME IN for the ticket draw - a free ticket could mean extra sushi or extra fabric or more buttons or another pattern or a better rotary cutter or a better breakie to keep my energy up or some stamps or an embroidery hoop or two or some wool for my Gran to make Punky something or... or... or....!
Counting down the days now... wheeeeeeeee!
(PS, now that my totally selfish rant is over - LOVE the wee red coat!)
ohhhh pick me, pick me, pick me, PLEEEAAASSE mummy - nagging seems to work for my children, thought I might give it a try :)
ReplyDeleteI can't wait for all that motivation and inspiration of THE show.
Keep on stretching Jodie, just don't snap!
Would love a ticket...if I lived down your way :( That little jacket is gorgeous! I have awarded you a Sunshine Blog Award (think you have already received one since) but maybe I should have called it Elastic Woman Stretch Award. Pop into my blog when you have a chance to check it out (may have to scroll down a bit). Hope all is well Stretchy :)
ReplyDeleteNot needing a ticket, but could do with a red jacket in my size!
ReplyDeleteLove that little red jacket, Jodie. BTW, are you having trouble getting your head through the door these days now that the Homespun ed. has described your work as "exquisite" and "divine"? No ticket thanks; OS visitors and such in May so not sure if I'll be going. Let me know if I can help out with packing kits or whatever.
ReplyDeletePlease put me in your draw! Thanks for the chance to win a ticket.
ReplyDeletetesting again ...gggrrrr
ReplyDeleteThe

Coat

Melty.
And I am wondering who (or what) will be wearing it at the show? I am very very curious.
And I am pretty sure that Elastic Woman is a member of the superhero council (and much preferred over super woman whose boobs are too pointy and hair too big and somewhat self-absorbed).
I am exhausted just reading about how busy you are!
ReplyDeleteI would love to come to the stitches & craft show - thanks for the giveaway x
I love busyness too!!
ReplyDeleteLove that red coat.
Unfortunately I can't join in the draw now that I have moved to the coast but I just wanted to comment anyway.
Hugs ~ Kerryanne
Your always so organised Jodie! I havent been to the Stitches and Craft Show for a few years now. Your little jacket and bag look so cute!
ReplyDeleteme, me!! pick me! then i can come visit you! oh, all right, i'll come visit all you guys anyway but a free ticket means $10 extra bucks for fabric ; )
ReplyDeletegrrr...sometimes I hate blogger !
ReplyDeleteOooh, I SO wish I could go to the show! And just who is that adorable little red jacket for???
ReplyDeleteGoodness me, you can put my name down for an adult sized red jacket just like that little one, thanks!
ReplyDeleteCount me in but even if I don't win - I will see you there!
ReplyDeleteOo Oo Pick me
ReplyDeleteI'll definately go - especially if there will be message bots!
Dear Elastic Woman
ReplyDeletePLEASE add me to you list - yes I have a fabric addiction but I'm sure I'll be fine surrounded by stalls and stalls of it and ideas and creative people and..... Therapy can come later!
Thanks
Not-So-Elastic Woman
I do love the green one. can't do the show but it is a lovely idea.
ReplyDeleteUnfortunately I am not within driving range, being on the other side of the Pacific, but love all the adorable things you have been creating. Too cute and so well put together. You're amazing!
ReplyDeleteOh, i would love to take my mother in law for some bonding time! Siobhan - I don't have a blog, but I will gladly send my details If I win!
ReplyDeletethe red coat sure is cute, but those little robots are divine!
ReplyDeletecount me in for the ticket draw, if it's crafty and in victoria, i'll make it
Imogen
Oh pick me, pick me!
ReplyDeleteDH and I are coming to Melbourne
6th-9th to catch Jersey Boys. A free ticket would be just what I need to talk hubby into letting me attend.
Go on then Elastic Woman, put me in the draw too. I'll bring you some chocolate if I win.
ReplyDeleteHere's my enthusiastic comment!
ReplyDeleteOoh, cute, cuter, and yes please! If I win, I promise to spend my savings on your patterns. (Oh who am I kidding, I'll be buying them even if I don't win!)
ReplyDeleteThe coat is divine!
That coat, is oozing with adorableness!!!
ReplyDeletecute patterns!
ReplyDeleteI am coming to the stitches & craft show, I'm even coming over from New Zealand! Well, I was coming to melbourne to visit anyway so I figured I may as well schedule my visit for that weekend.
I can't get the guide to download off the website :-( do you know if its available anywhere else?
Hey Jod, I'd love to win a ticket. I haven't been to this before and am planning to go this year. Hope you aren't stretching tooooo much, xo
ReplyDeleteHi Jodie,
ReplyDeleteThe bots and the jacket are just gorgeous. Are you allowed time off from being a librarian and will you be at the show everyday?
Bev
I can't go so please don't count me in the draw , if I drank I'd be crying in my beer about not being able to go , sob ! I love the little teeny robots and that jacket and bag is just so cute .
ReplyDeleteI would lurve a ticket Ms Jodie. Puretty purlease! I'll be unemployed by then so I'll be able to have a lovely day out.
ReplyDeleteHmmmm ... StomperGirl has upped the stakes with chocolate. I shall offer some of my world famous Brownies if I win.
ReplyDeleteLove the red coat, would love to see if you could stretch that elastic a teeny bit more for a grown-ups version?????
ReplyDeleteWould love a chance to win a ticket to meet y'all!
I wish I could make it because the Sydney Stitches and Craft Show that was supposed to be in February and was postponed and then supposed to start tomorrow has been cancelled! (with no explanation) Boo-hoo!!
ReplyDeleteokays adding comment here.......
ReplyDeleteI would love tremendously please to win a ticket to the Stitches and Craft show.
I need inspiration and i think along with you blog the show would help.
BTW who is that cute little red coat for, maybe that duck you were working on?
one more thing jodie what on earth are you testing for??? a bit of a mystery????
ReplyDeleteGrrr...I am testing to try and figure out why all of a sudden blogger has stopped sending comments to my inbox- It is driving me mental !!!
ReplyDeleteI'm not sure if you are Elastic Woman or Super Woman or a combination of both to get everything done that you do. Either way I'm in awe of your achievements and will bow down before your organisational genuis next time I see you...vbg.
ReplyDeleteI can't believe you are fitting all of this around a day job. I will see you there!
ReplyDeleteHi there!
ReplyDeleteCount me in the draw...
By the way, are you selling the toys online? They are adorable!
My email is ctrimh@hotmail.com
Cheers
Rina
I cant wait to the Stitches and Craft show, see you there.
ReplyDeleteOh that red jacket is soooooooo cyoooooooot!
ReplyDeleteI'd love a chance to win a ticket but will be coming to say hi no matter. Hope things are good Mrs Elastic woman.
Love to win a ticket to the show. I haven't been fro about 5 years and I think it's about time I ventured back with my wallet glued shut!! I always spend waaay too much there!! LOL
ReplyDeleteGosh Jodie, You would think I would have spell checked my previous comment prior to posting...hehehe.
ReplyDeleteCount me in please! Another order for an adult sized little red jacket that is the cutiest patootiest thing I've seen in ages!
ReplyDeleteand me again - my head is about to explode...
ReplyDeleteI can't make it to your part of the world this year, but I would ADORE to have the pattern for that most exquisite red coat and purse. I love the toggle button closings, and I will be first in line to buy the pattern when it becomes available. Not that I'm trying to add to your already lengthy list of things to do!
ReplyDeleteI have a ticket so I'm not entering the giveaway, but I have to say that that's the sweetest little duffle coat I ever did see. Do you think you could make one in my size???
ReplyDeleteHi, I love your blog and would love to come to see all the goodies at the show and also to meet you :) Thanks for the chance to win a ticket! katrina
ReplyDeleteThis is ridiculous
ReplyDeleteabsolutely ridiculous......
ReplyDeleteCount me in for your fabulous giveaway.It will be a great show
ReplyDeleteAlison
my inner Elastigirl (The Incredibles)says to your manifest Elastigirl...give me a ticket!!! (Pretty please.)
ReplyDeleteUm Jod, you don't need to leave yourself comments you know! You've ALREADY GOT YOUR TICKET!!!! ;o)
ReplyDeleteBut I'm not at all surprised that you have discovered your new status as Elastic-Girl - we've all known you were a super-hero for years!
I quite often get called Lucy Lastic but not for the same reasons (just say it outloud to yourself........)
Locket xx
That jacket is too precious!
ReplyDeleteThat little red coat and the handbag are gorgeous. Now all they need is a little someone to wear them!
ReplyDelete...is it a bird?...is it a plane?... why, it's... the Incredible Elastic Woman!
Ta for the passing by nod too! I really needed that.
Ooooh ... I'll have one.
ReplyDeleteI'll even give you a lunch break on the day I come!! (whether I win or not)
Andi x
would love to come and say "hi" in person
ReplyDeleteI'm definitely coming. You are very sweet to do this give away
ReplyDeleteLast year's show was the best I've been to. It was so great to see "funky" where I normally see "fusty". Looking forward to this year's.
ReplyDeleteHi Jodie. Would love a ticket to the stitches and craft show *grin* pretty, pretty please! Being crafty busy is such good fun. I am currently stitching ladybugs and quilting a quilt for my bed. Heaven!
ReplyDeleteI haven't been able to go to the Stitches & Craft Show for a few years.......but this year is it....it would be great to win a ticket - a day away from cows and calves would be fantastic!
ReplyDeleteCheers Linda :)
Oh Jodie..you have hit the jackpot with those photos. That red jacket, the Pocket-bots. Ahh..Don't count me in on the giveaway as I can't be there but I do so look forward to catching up at SIT.
ReplyDeleteAll the best with elasticating!!
It is amazing how much one women can fit into their day! I am so impressed and overwhelmed. KEEP going you are doing an amazing job!
ReplyDeletei do hope your in-box is not full you may need to empty dont know just a suggestion...... so do boxes get full......well maybe that was a dumb suggestion by me sorry.....
ReplyDeleteJod...blogger is stoopid. There is nothing good about the comment system in my opinion.
ReplyDeleteI'm very much enjoying the vision of you all stretchy like.
That darned day job in the way again! Love your elasticity Ms RicRac-such clever cuteness all round. Would love to go to the craft show but alas not this year:(
ReplyDeleteI am not entering but just admiring your handy work once again! Phew I don't know how you get the time, maybe another Super Ric Rac!
ReplyDeleteThe amazing "Elastic woman" I like that, just imagine teaming up with "Super Pops" (any more out there?) for a league of crafty superheroes!
ReplyDeleteI am booked in to get my tonsils out on the 27th April (yes I am a grown up!And I know it could be 10 days of hell) but my aim is to be recovered enough to make it to Stitches and Craft - I have to have something to look forward to after going through that. So a free ticket would be lovely - and more motivation to recover!
DianneH
I would love to win a free ticket to the craft show, I haven't been for 10 years! i never have a day to myself, but maybe this could be the exception. Thanks for the opportunity.
ReplyDeletedo the two tickets come with airfare from the US :-) ?!!!!
ReplyDeleteElastic woman!!! I love that name!!!
Please count me in! I would love to meet the amazing elastic woman, and get some inspiration to turn my elephant coloured op shop fabric into one of your creations.
ReplyDeleteThank you!
if only i lived closer! i would so go to the show! and how about this red little coat? way to cute!!!!
ReplyDeleteAs a fellow librarian, ex-resident of Ballarat and crafter (although on a much smaller less professional level than your amazing and inspiring efforts) I am planning on going to the Stitches and Craft Show anyway, but a free ticket would certainly be appreciated.
ReplyDeleteI'm not going, but that little red jacket caught my eye! And the baby bots- tooooooo cute!
ReplyDeleteSince I am up here in Seattle, I'm not entering for this draw but instead much remark on HOW CUTE the bots are. Love them so much.
ReplyDeletelooking forward to it.......... saving saving....
