Merry Christmas

***Update 31/12 - hello, everyone - I will be doing one more mail out of the pattern folio at approx. 9am AEDT 1/1/2015,  so please make sure you have confirmed email subscriptions, or signed up before that time if you wish to receive the pattern folio as this will be the final one! Thanks!

Hello everyone! I mentioned in my previous post that I've been working on a Christmas surprise for my blog email subscribers and I think I finally have all my ducks in a row (but we are talking me, and computers, and the internet - yes, in the same sentence - so who really knows, right?)

I've been working furiously on putting together the "A Little Lime Pattern Folio" - it's a compilation of patterns from my blog along with some drawings featuring the designs for inspiration.


I'm offering this as a free PDF download to email subscribers (existing email subscribers should have already received the email with a link) and, new subscribers during December as my little Christmas gift. I hope you love it!

I'm also currently in the process of working on a new e-book which I'm hoping to have ready for sale later on in the month - it will be a how-to book featuring some of the most asked technique questions that I've received - these are the ones that need more than a quick step-out to explain. I'm pretty excited about it, too!

So, this Pattern Folio is a bit of an experiment to see how it all works, what I can do better, etc. and I would love, love your feedback.

So, how do you get your hands on the Pattern Folio?

Existing  email subscribers: you should have received an email with a link already, check your junk email just in case, and if you can't find it send me an email

Blog followers: if you follow via rss, or some other feed, I am sorry, but I'm not able to send you an email as I do not have your email address or legal permission to email you - you will need to opt in as described below.

New subscribers: please opt in using the "follow by email" button on the right sidebar of the blog - you will need to type in your email address and hit "submit". You will then receive an email in your inbox telling you to confirm your subscription to A Little Lime. You will need to follow the confirmation instructions, which means you will show up as an active email subscriber on my list - I cannot send you the email with a link to the download until you have activated your subscription (it would be illegal for me to do so). I will be checking for any new confirmed email subscriptions once or twice a day and forwarding the download link email then (unfortunately I cannot set up auto responders on my account yet, but I am working on it!). You will receive an email with the link to download the book within 24 hours, though. waiver: unless I come down with a horrible virus or something. lol.

Now, fingers crossed, let's hope it all works. I'm a little bit scared........you?

Have a great weekend!
Helen

Thank you for all the hard work you have put into this booklet - it reflects your personality beautifully & I love the way you have interspersed quotes. Your style is very unique. All the best with your endeavours - I don't have any suggestions as I like it the way it is - very clear & no waffling about - the links to the videos in the appropriate places is terribly useful.
Thank You & Congratulations upon finishing school! Have a super Christmas with your family & menagerie.

I LOVE your gift of the portfolio!!! Thank you!!! LOVE your work! I've been a subscriber for some time now and can't tell you how much I appreciate the work you put into this gift and the inspiration it has given me!! I especially appreciate the links to the videos...I'm much more of a visual learner and watching you create easier for me. THANK YOU!!!
Helen said…
Thanks so much, Ellen. I hope it arrived for you this morning. I think you follow through the blog - I do the same and get a summary in my dashboard when people update posts. Unfortunately I can't send emails to those people - they might not want it and it'd be classified as spamming which I do not want to do. The computer is giving me a few headaches......but I am coping. Just. LOL. Merry Christmas to you, too!
Helen said…
Hope it arrived for you this morning, Chrissie :)
Helen said…
