I've heard about this "tagging" before
>> Friday, February 17, 2006
I've started making more needle books lately. I finished this one last night, the inside pages are light pink felted wool, and the lining is a pink floral fabric. The top is brown courdoroy with a snap closure and some felt applique and crewel embroidery. It may go into my etsy shop but I haven't decided yet.
I've been tagged by A Little Hut...

Oops- I just realized people will give away some answers by posting them in the comment. Better email me at clairelmilne(at)hotmail.com.
Thanks for delurking Cathy! You missed #4 though - that's a tricky one!
You may still win though if no one else knows all four...

2. setting for a series of books by tove jansson
3. the manor of mary lennox's uncle (the secret garden)
4. bedknobs and broomsticks
i admit to having to google #'s 2 & 4!

That was a fun read. Thanks Claire! I still can't figure out #4 though.
I reposted Cathy's comment now that she has emailed me with all four right answers. I'm going to be sending her a little something.
thanks Cathy!
