Link Roundup: Quilt patterns edition

November 18th, 2008 | by mbhunter |

I’m really excited for my wife.  She showed some of her quilt patterns to the owner of a local quilt store, and the owner has decided to give a trial run to ten of her patterns!  She loves designing quilts so this is a big deal.  She’s also gearing up for a craft show.  A few of her patterns are here, and she blogs about quilting as well.

Here are some posts I pieced together from the great blogs in my reader:

• Mrs. Micah talks about anchoring as it applies to credit card minimum payments.
• Get Rich Slowly shares almost three dozen make-it-yourself gift ideas from his readers and other sources.
• Paid Twice gives five concrete tips for paying yourself first.
• Money Ning combines financial and physical well-being with this post.
• Green Panda Treehouse saved money with her own cable-phone-internet bundle.
• Smart Spending lists a number of Black Friday deal sites.
• Wisdom Journal offers some sound advice for weathering the dark economic cloud.
• Think Your Way to Wealth considers whether $2 gas is good or bad.
• Five Cent Nickel reports on the 2009 tax brackets.
• Don’t Mess with Taxes celebrates three years of tax blogging.
• All Financial Matters picked up on the guaranteed retirement account movement.  (Also known as Social Security 2.0.)
• Free Money Finance has a guest post on giving generously during hard times.
• The Simple Dollar posts on investing in skills for the slippery slope down.
• Chief Family Officer is very thankful for her family’s emergency fund.
