I actually found this website very interesting because I really admire people who could create amazing craft work. Well, I can sew a little but absolutely have no passion for it.

This website, free appliqué, allows people to download appliqué pattern for their quilts, crafts and clipart and many more. There are so many patterns available that it is really up to your imagination how to make the best out of the patterns.

Apart from the free appliqué patterns, you can also get free baby quilt patterns or get ideas for your craft projects. Some people I know find crafting and quilting really therapeutic. As for me, I get all stressed out trying to get the perfect stitch! Well, I think I better not make any myself and resolve to just admire the work of others!

Do you like the pattern found here? Are they useful for you? Let me know!

Review The AnitoKid and Win US$100

1 Reply

I do have a knack of sniffing out exciting contests, especially those that give out Ca$h. I don’t even remember how I discovered the AnitoKid, I think it must be from my blog hopping activities.

Well, great news for all bloggers. The Anitokid is running a contest where he is giving away ONE $100 prize to the blogger who submits the best review of his blog, The Anitokid Chronikos – Billiards and Philippine sports. You can write it anyhow you like, in any language, as long as you link to his blog using the keyword Billiards and also to the Anniversary Review post on his blog so that other bloggers can read and participate in this contest as well.

Although the Anitokid has said that you can write in any tone you wish, if you have criticisms, do make them constructive so that the AnitoKid can make improvements.

The closing date of this contest is November 12th, 2007, 11:00 PM, Philippine time. It’s still a long way off. The benefit is that you will have plenty of time to write a quality review.

The best of luck to you!

The Freebie Source Directory

3 Replies

If you have been reading my blogs, you know I love freebies! It takes dedication to run not one but TWO freebies blog. I scour the internet for free stuff all the time and I get a kick when I am able to find something really rare to share with my readers.

Today, I did not discover any particular freebie but a site called The Freebies Source. This is a free stuff directory. I have always wanted to make a site like that but I don’t know how to do it and did not want to bother people to help me, hence the blogs.

I surfed through The Freebie Source and am happy to report there are many freebies and free samples which are all neatly categorized. So it’s easy to navigate the site to look for what you want.

Do check out the site because I am not going to post what goodies they have to offer!

I previously wrote about a website that offers Free Legal & Insurance Advice. Well, here is another one. At The Law Dot Com, you can get free legal advice and discuss any legal matter with lawyers in the forum. You will also be able to download free legal forms and get free legal outlines on any legal issue.

If you have read the FAQs section and have discussed your issue at the forums and still not satisfied with the free advice given, you can locate a lawyer near you and get a free legal consultation as well, although I have been told that you would get a quicker response on the forums!

If you would like to find out the definitions of any specific legal term, check out TheLaw dictionary too.

I find this website really useful because I am sure that there is always a time in our lives where we need a little legal advice. This site allows us t throw our case open to be discussed by experienced lawyers and for free too! Check it out!

One Click Weather Forecast

Leave a reply

I rely quite heavily on the weather forecasts and used to have a widget on my desktop. Although it is quite useful, it has some features which I found redundant. MY friend told me about FastWx Weather Forecasts. When I opened the page, I was rather surprised that it is almost blank. So I keyed in my zip code and hit Enter on the button which says “Weather”.

Amazingly, there was a full page of weather conditions rendered including current condition, hourly temperature and weather for the following five days. I find it very nifty and I could customize the page to only show me information that I want to see.

Fast Wx Weather Forecasts is now bookmarked because it is nifty, user-friendly, loads fast and accurate!

Win $2500 With Eyes Closed

I know I am guilty of always saying that one contest is the easiest to participate and then I find another way that surpasses that. Well, this one takes the cake. Ashwin Khanna’s Blog Extravaganza has been making the waves on the internet because he is giving away $2500 cold hard cash to one lucky person at the end of his link fest.

To participate, and anybody could do this with both eye closed, bloggers have to copy, paste and publish a fixed paragraph of text on their own blogs. And the text goes like this, and I quote copy and paste:

Over at Ashwin’s blog, you will find one crazy blog owner!! You can win $2500!! To enter just copy this text and paste it in your blog!! But hurry, this competition will not last long! So get posting!

Did I already say this is an easy peasy contest? Anyone with a blog should participate and why not? Many people have asked if this contest is for real. Well, we will soon know next month, won’t we?

P/S: 24th August, 2007: The link has been updated to point to another site after this contest has been found to be crap.

Free Doggie Info On The Dog Guide

3 Replies

If you have been following my blogs, you are probably getting sick of all my pet stories. However, I feel that people need to be more responsible towards animals and be educated on pets too.

A couple of days ago, I was at the vet’s to pick up a blood test report for my dog. The vet asked me if I would like to adopt a Boston Terrier. I already have two senior dogs now and I do not wish to keep anymore pets, ever, although I love dogs very much. The pain of losing my pets is too much to bear. I know it is inevitable but they are going to be 13 years old in four months’ time and their health is not getting any better.

I declined the offer although Boston Terriers are just the loveliest dogs that one could have. I asked why the owner is giving the dog up. The vet said that the owner, although he loves dogs too (yeah, right!), do not have the time to care for a dog anymore because he has a family now and work is more demanding.

I was pissed off! I believe that if one could take a dog in, he should keep and care for the dog till the end. What sort of owner is he to abandon a dog halfway? If the owner was there, I would have given him a piece of my mine. If he had read a Boston Terriers Dog Guide Article, he would know what sort of dogs Boston Terriers are. They do not need that much of care or grooming at all and there is certainly no need to abandon a dog because family comes first. The article explains that Boston Terriers are kid-friendly and a perfect family dog.

He’s lucky he was not around that day!

Whenever people tell me that their kids are asking for a dog, I advise them to read up on the dog guide first. The wealth of free dog information is there for us to explore. There are so many dog breeds and each breed has its distinct character. Make up your mind on the type of dog that would fit your lifestyle because once you have adopted a dog, it would be cruel of you to give the dog away. Do you give away your child or a family member? I guess some people do, but that is beside the point.

Before I end, I actually know of a way for you to win yourself a designer dog collar and I will be revealing it in a subsequent post. So stay tuned!
