TastyLinks Saturday^TM

Madge pats Amos one of her Pot Bellied Pigs

Every Saturday around these parts I share some of our favorite crafty links from the blogosphere. I'm part of a group of Crafty Bloggers who do a round robin weekly and I sprinkle in a generous helping of extras. There's a lot to see here, but it's all good stuff so take a moment to check it out.

Have a fabulous weekend and I'll be back for Terrorific Tuesdays! I take Sundays off of blogging, but you can tune in tomorrow to QVC for Silver Style and I'll be on with several items in the 8-12pm ET show. Until we meet again, craft on with your bad selves.

Cheers,
Madge
