The most interesting and favorite question was about my <a style="color: rgb(0, 102, 0);" href="http://tqbdesigns.blogspot.com/2008/03/color-block-friday-luck-o-irish.html">Color Block Friday's</a> and why I have them. <a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://www.etsy.com/view_listing.php?listing_id=9973339"><img style="margin: 0pt 0pt 10px 10px; float: right; cursor: pointer;" src="http://bp3.blogger.com/_3IkgjkssDbs/R967Vkj5i7I/AAAAAAAAAiY/6VeSglPSA3U/s200/SG105069.JPG" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5178782600788544434" border="0" /></a>There is something in our minds about Friday. Something giddy;freeing. I like to celebrate the small stuff and I like to celebrate with color!<br /><br />It's also interesting to see where a person can be inspired. This is the last question (and one the interviewer gives to everyone): Where are some of your creative spots in Portland: My #1 spot is definitely the <a style="color: rgb(0, 0, 153);" href="http://www.rebuildingcenter.org/">Re-Build Center</a> on N. Mississippi. If I'm feeling creative block or if I am just having <a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://www.etsy.com/view_listing.php?listing_id=10288351"><img style="margin: 0pt 10px 10px 0pt; float: left; cursor: pointer;" src="http://bp1.blogger.com/_3IkgjkssDbs/R96iREj5i6I/AAAAAAAAAiQ/AA_fxq-Qz1U/s200/ECHAC5+-+cinnamon+-+No.1.JPG" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5178755035688438690" border="0" /></a>a day when I NEED inspiration this is where I love to go. It works every time. If you haven't been to the Re-Build Center - what are you waiting for!<br /><br />So, if you feel inclined check out my interview. It talks about how I got started and the total seed bead count on one of my beaded rounds...<br /><br />Thanks DIY Alert!<br /><br />Also, if you love crafting and want to know the goings on here in Portland, <a href="http://www.diyalert.com/subscribe"><span style="color: rgb(51, 102, 255);">subscribe</span></a> to their newsletter - it comes right to your email in box!TQB Designshttp://www.blogger.com/profile/09811636059846584972noreply@blogger.com
