Japan was hit by one of the largest earthquakes ever recorded on March 11. The magnitude-9.0 quake spawned a deadly tsunami that slammed into the nation's east coast, leaving a huge swath of devastation in its wake. Thousands of people are dead and many more are still missing or injured. (source: Yahoo News)

Japan has played a huge part in my life and the one place I hope to visit before I die! I am shocked and appauled by the worsening situation in this beautiful country. I have created this digital collage entitled Japanese Girl especially to raise money for the people of Japan. 100% of the profits I make on this print will be donated to Global Giving.

Although I would prefer you to buy this as a high-quality giclee print so that much needed donations can be made, a downloadable poster version is available to help spread the word :)

sabbatical

Hi all... just a quick note to let you know that one loop short will be taking a break for the forseeable future so that I can concentrate all my efforts on one little bird, my print business. It's a slightly different vibe over there, but I do hope you will pop in to see me occasionally!

print giveaway

Happy New Year! Sorry I've been away for so long. I've not been crocheting much lately as I've been busy concentrating on revamping my Etsy shop. It's generating quite a bit of interest, so in celebration of this I am running a giveaway over on my One Little Bird blog. I'll be pulling a winner out of the hat on Friday 4th February so hurry on over and see what's up for grabs.
