Hey! It’s a Giveaway!
Do you know what day it is today? It is my BLOG BIRTHDAY! !6! Oh the places I’ve been, the people I’ve met, the friends I have made, um, the stats I have gotten totally obsessed with. Yes, six years. I won’t be linking back to early posts though. Somewhere along the way, during some computer or server change-over, the early years posts are a big mess so I try to ignore them.
In celebration of 6 years of blogging and launching the fish pattern out into the world- I hope it will be finished in the next few days- I’m having a giveaway. Pick a fish! Any fish!
My school of fish is growing even larger as I work on the pattern. The winner of the giveaway will get to choose whichever one they want before I list the rest in my Etsy shop. All you need to do is leave a comment of any kind on this post. The giveaway will close on Wednesday night 2/17 midnight est. Random number generator, announce on Thursday, you know the drill. Anyone can enter the give-away, but if you win and are not in the US, I will need to ask for a contribution towards shipping which might be around $32.
Here is my desk now, as I work on the pattern-
Still taking Photoshop baby-steps.
Other news of the week- the second meet-up was just as fun as the first. There were dire predictions of snow, but none materialized. There were 2 new people- Hi Linda and Trisha! As always, all are welcome- 2nd Wed, Starbucks, Davis Sq. Somerville, 10am. Kerry’s report here.

Happiest 6th anniversary for you and your blog! I hope that the random number picker picks me! We need a fishy friend in our house! It will be tough to choose, though, as they are all so wonderful! Thank you for the opportunity!

Wow 6 years of blogging! That’s awesome! I love your dolls and find you so inspiring. Hope I win one of your fish!
February 13th, 2010 at 10:41 am
OMG!!! Please enter me in your generous giveaway. I would prolly pee my pants if i won a fish!
THANKS!
February 13th, 2010 at 10:50 am
February is the month of the fish (Pisces) – and being a Pisces myself, I couldn’t think of a more perfect birthday present. Thanks for your generous offer and Happy Birthday to you – six years is a long time – love your work.
February 13th, 2010 at 11:10 am
Mimi, congrats on your blog birthday! I am anxiously awaiting the fish pattern. I know my young girls would love to have one, and then they would fight over it so making another one would be ideal as well as winning one.
Thanks
February 13th, 2010 at 11:24 am
obviously you are just itching to mail a fish out of town as in over here in Canada, and it would be my pleasure to add to the shipping cost
so…
if you wish to wish a wish, you may swish for fish ~ as in one fish two fish red fish blue fish ooh I spy a herringbone fish!
February 13th, 2010 at 11:28 am
Happy Blogiversary, Mimi!
Thanks for sharing your work with us. I always look forward to seeing the visual results of your imagination!
May the creative muse forever whisper!

Happy blog birthday! I’m a huge admirer of your work and your fish are super fabulous!
February 13th, 2010 at 11:50 am
I usually don’t comment, but your giveaway made me come out of lurkdom. Owning one of your fish would be great. I love your blog and I love your work. You brighten my day! Should have told you sooner.
February 13th, 2010 at 11:52 am
Yippeee! A fish giveaway! Love your blog!
February 13th, 2010 at 11:55 am
Happy Blogiversary! many happy returns of the day…your sharing of glimpses into your life is priceless. I think that your blog was one of the very first I ever found, back when I had no real idea what a blog was, and I was impressed, not only with your work, but with the idea that art-makers, usually so isolated, could find one another through the “electronic window”
February 13th, 2010 at 11:57 am
Congratulations on 6 years! to have anything you’ve made would be wonderful and I just happen to love the fish! my favorite is the striped fish with the red face and tail!
If wishes were fishes … thanks for sharing your wonderful work!
February 13th, 2010 at 12:16 pm
Happy Blog Birthday and WOW! LOVE the fish! More than anything I could feel and touch your work close up! Swoon!
February 13th, 2010 at 12:16 pm
Happy blogiversary! Count me in.
February 13th, 2010 at 12:20 pm
Congrats on 6 years. Pisces, the sign of the fish, is my birth sign. I have a birthday at the end of the month. Would just love one of your fish.
February 13th, 2010 at 12:21 pm
Oh how I love your dolls and your style! Thanks for the giveaway
February 13th, 2010 at 12:27 pm
Happy Blog Birthday!!! I love your blog, your dolls, and your fish!!
February 13th, 2010 at 12:40 pm

February 13th, 2010 at 12:53 pm
Six years – Awesome! Happy Blog Birthday! I’m from the “land of 10,000 lakes” and fish are way cool. Fiber fish are even better…love your fish!
February 13th, 2010 at 12:54 pm
Happy Blog Anniversary ~ I would love a fish for one of my Pisces men. xxoo
February 13th, 2010 at 12:57 pm

I LOVE the fish and would love to see one on my bed or couch! lol We are Alaskans stuck in Texas so the fish would fit in our hosue just perfect! Thanks for the chance to win one!
February 13th, 2010 at 1:02 pm
I think I’ve been reading your blog for four years! Yowza. Thank you for providing me with inspiration and guidance over the inter-waves of the web. Much appreciated.
February 13th, 2010 at 1:02 pm
I follow along on this blog faithfully and always enjoy your new offerings.
Florida would be a good place for a tropical fish and now that we can actually claim to have had snow twice this year, a fish with a sweater coat seems even more appropriate.
February 13th, 2010 at 1:02 pm
Call it a “Swim Away.”
Yours for bright fish!
February 13th, 2010 at 1:05 pm
Those fish are outstanding ~ just grand! I love that they are a BIG huggable size! Great giveaway ~ I hope to be lucky!
February 13th, 2010 at 1:13 pm

February 13th, 2010 at 1:30 pm
Happy Blog Birthday Mimi, I love your work, and have enjoyed seeing how it progresses through the years. Thanks for the faithful postings and I look forward to many more!
February 13th, 2010 at 1:36 pm

February 13th, 2010 at 2:15 pm
I love those fish Mimi. The striped wool fish look like they are wearing sweaters. I want the pattern when it is ready.

Wish I was close enough for the meet and greet. California is just too far away. Happy blog birthday! You are quite inspiring- I can’t tell you how much enjoyment I get out of following your projects! I’d love to win a fish.
February 13th, 2010 at 2:36 pm
Happy Anniversary! My favorite picture of the fish was the one of the pile of them in the chair. That made me laugh. I always enjoy seeing your work. Thanks for the chance to win one of your wonderful fish.
February 13th, 2010 at 2:39 pm
I would be so happy to have one of your awesome pieces. I’m very good with fish…I once had a goldfish for over seven years so you can bet I’d take very good care of one of your beautiful fish!
February 13th, 2010 at 2:45 pm
I love what you are doing with the fish! I hope I win one!
February 13th, 2010 at 2:46 pm
I am good at fishing…sometimes….I would love to have one of your piece…..those fish are making my kids dreaming…alittle more…. from this side of the world !!!!
February 13th, 2010 at 2:48 pm
Happy Blog Birthday! I love your work and would enjoy owning an original! I thought your tattoo dolls were great. What a wonderful imagination you have! And now you’ve reinvented the fish. I wonder what you’ll thu k of next. I can hardly wait to see!!
February 13th, 2010 at 2:52 pm
Congrats on the blog turning 6!!!
I don’t even blog enough anymore to highlight the milestones ;o)
February 13th, 2010 at 2:59 pm
Fun! Great give-a-way and a great reason to celebrate, congrats on your blogiversary!
February 13th, 2010 at 3:04 pm
Happy Blogday!!
I would love a fish!!! Either way, I will be buying a pattern. With a family of commercial fisherman, I have a feeling that I couldn’t make enough for them!
But, most of all Happy Blogday…I’ve been with you for about 3 years now – mostly a lurker, sometimes an occasional commenter
February 13th, 2010 at 3:16 pm
Congrats on your 6 years of blogging. Your art inspires me.
February 13th, 2010 at 3:17 pm
This is the right kind of fish for me! A LONG time ago, before we were married, my husband and I were backpacking…he was trying to teach me how to fish, but when I caught a little brook trout, it tried to get away…I told my husband, “It’s fighting!!” He said to pull it in, but I just couldn’t do it. It had never occured to me that a fish would fight for it’s life!! I threw down the pole and I’ve never fished again!
(More than you wanted to know!!) But happy blog birthday, and I LOVE your work!!
February 13th, 2010 at 3:37 pm
Congratulations!
February 13th, 2010 at 4:00 pm
I love your fish and would happily pay postage! Six years! Congratulations!
February 13th, 2010 at 4:04 pm
I am so in love with all your dolls. I have made your little girl. I am looking forward to the fish pattern. I would love to own one. They bring back memories of fishing with my dad.
February 13th, 2010 at 4:10 pm
Happy blogiversary! You are so great at blogging something cool every day, and also at making awesome fish. :)
February 13th, 2010 at 5:33 pm

February 13th, 2010 at 5:37 pm

February 13th, 2010 at 5:56 pm
Ooo, I am excited about your art, and now there’s a free fish! Let it be me!

Congratulations! I have been lurking on your site since the beginning! Your six blogday is probably a good time to say hello! And to let you know how much I enjoy watching you work! Keep it up!!
February 13th, 2010 at 10:53 pm
Happy anniversary, it must feel great to have come so far. I am so loveing the fish, i even tried my own version but when my kids gave me the” what is that” i thought i would leave the fishies to you. It was fun to try and even thought mine didn’t work out quite as well as yours, thank you for the inspiration i was in a rut.
February 13th, 2010 at 11:52 pm
Would one of your fishies like to swim across the USA to live in the Pacific Northwest? I promise we’d give him or her a good home, and we’d promise to take him to see the Puget Sound on a regular basis – you know, so he wouldn’t feel homesick. Maybe we’d even send you a picture! We don’t own any cats (so he probably wouldn’t feel threatened) and we have a nice couch for him to lounge upon too.
I’m so glad I found your blog! And you Etsy shop. All of your creations really inspire me, and I’m super inspired by how dedicated to blogging you are.

Hi there – found you from the awesome tutorial on the Purl Bee and I’m also finished with my first doll. I’m planning on taking her picture when I’m finished and will link to you and your shop. I LOVE your work. Fingers crossed I get the fish!

what can I say?
Your fish would look perfect in my classroom, or in my bedroom or in the kids playroom.
But I don’t mind if I just get to look at it on the internet!

Although I am just nuts about the tatooed people – they really talk to me – I have a huge smile on my face when I see the fish. I can imagine holding him in my arms! I so enjoy being on the distribution and seeing Doll in my email box – it’s the first message I open.
