liebster award

I'm honored that Janny of Que Linda! has chosen me to receive a Liebster Award. The Liebster Award is a way to feature five "up-and-coming" bloggers who currently have fewer than 200 followers (but deserve more, of course).  Liebster is a German word meaning "dearest" or "beloved." It can also mean "boyfriend," according to the Internet, but we can ignore that.



The official rules for this award are:

1. Copy and paste the award on your blog
2. Thank the giver and link back to the blogger who gave it to you
3. Reveal your top 5 picks and let them know by leaving a comment on their blog
4. Hope that your followers will spread the love to other bloggers


Thank you, Janny! She's only had her blog up and running since September but she already has so many amazing tutorials, recipes, and home decor & sewing projects to share. Definitely check out her DIY chevron wall, complete with a downloadable Excel design worksheet to help make your own.


Now, when looking for other bloggers to feature for this award, I had a bit of trouble determining how long some of them have been around and how many followers they have -- since people can follow or subscribe to certain blogs in various ways. I chose Blogger bloggers and went by the Google Friend Connect followers, if they were displayed. These are all wonderful blogs of mostly sewists who got their start in 2011. Enjoy:
