I've been Tagged

I've been TAGGED BY Sylvia @ Sylvia's Stitches. See what happens when I go off for some fun. I come back and get tagged. Never been tagged before so I had to go see what Sylvia got me into. If you click on her blog name it will take you directly to her  cute blog. Thanks Sylvia.

So Here are the rules:

• Every tagged person has to tell 11 things about themselves
• The person who tagged you asked 11 questions, answer them
• Ask 11 questions for the 11 blogs you're going to tag (the people you tag should have less than 200 followers) Well some of mine are over 200 but under 300
• Mention the blog that tagged you, but don't tag them back.
