One garland goes to Solange, because she was the first to know, that the pictures in question were taken in Coburg. As far as I could find out by now, this means, the garland will travel to Brasila, wow! Congratulations, Solange! You answered so fast, have you ever been to Coburg?
The second garland was raffled among all the other participants. I closed my eyes and grabbed one name out of the bowl:
Congratulations, Sarah H! Please send me an Email because your blogger profile isn't public and I have no chance to contact you otherwise.
Now, this was really fun and we hope, you've enjoyed our little giveaway, too!
Thanks again, to all of you. We'll be back soon to tell you, what has been going on here recently.
xoxo
Yours
Jo and Mo
well done to the winners..... :) such a pretty prize!
ReplyDeletecongratulations to the winners:) I think I will have to give the garland a try - they are sooo beautiful!
ReplyDelete\o/ Wow, that's great!
ReplyDeleteBut... I have to make a confession.
I cheated.
First, I look a map and searched for images from various cities around Nuremberg, and found 3 candidates. Then I have a hunch, and look at the file name of the photos
*blush*
The funny thing is, when I searched for images from Coburg, I found a lot of brazilian flags:

I have no idea :D
@elaine: it is very easy. If you get stuck (because the instructions might be misleading or something) let me know and I will help!
ReplyDelete@Solange: Oh *lol* the filenames! I didn't think of that! However, that was truly clever of you!
Please don't forget to email me your address. Would you like your garland in light or in darker green (vines and leaves)? Did you get my e Mail?

P.s. @Solange: The link you found is about a Samba festival, which was celebrated at Coburg this year. Samba and Samba groups are getting quite popular in Germany, lately. It's such a cheerful way to party! :-)
ReplyDeleteCongratulations to the winners!!! I will just have to make one for myself now won't I :-)
ReplyDeleteThat flower-garland really was lovely!
ReplyDeleteOh my, I can't believe I came too late for this giveaway. It's absolutely stunning!

SLEEPLESS IN SEATTLE
There's much in the world that you can't explain.
It's revealed for you to remember
by the whispering voice of a distant train
or a midnight rain in november.
Horizon within! You can always find
the keys to Enigma. Let's mention
one basic Truth: of spirited Mind
Is Nature naught but extension.
Internal expanses! In dreams, ridden
by fear and longing you roam
that deep Southeast in your soul hidden
...on your random journey back home.
Single Swingle

Casualidad sopla la sangre
de alguno señor desconocido
durante los pocos restantes
momentos del resplandor de faroles
que se vislumbran tras el follaje
flameando de las obsesiónes
igual efimero como gotas
del cinzano de la soledad –
En aquel tiempo me levanta
dentro uno incidente avejentado
que en seguida palidece
al camouflaje de abstraccion;
chica, nadie conoce que tus grisos
ojos significan aún; con todo
el sueño que hube evacuado
tu escudriñas nuevamente.
My Spanish poetry!

LE FRUIT DU CIEL
Un orage nocturne illmuna maintenant l'Amazonie, franchis les Andes, envoya des jeux de cartes gigantesques et frappantes en bas à la Pampa –
Puis: petit déjeuner à melon; café fumant !
À la bague du cigare tu lis, étonné: GÉOGRAPHIE.

Das Leben dergleichen Halbfaßung
der Welt wahr immer nicht wahr,
nicht wahr? Die fristlos Entlaßung
am Ende wird kaum wunderbar.
So laßen uns Menschlingen viele
besonders besonnene zum
Zeitweilegem Zeiten als Ziele
des Lebens halbfaßen darum.

We need a new analysis of probability. My hypothesis is that disorder is as constant as energy, since increasing material disorder, entropy, is counterbalanced by increasing structural regularity, symmetry. I tell you the Law of Entropy and the Law of Symmetry, ruling approximatively equal universal validity derive through bifurcation of the still more basic Law of Probability, that is, math, and rather simple math at that. Can you dig this?

ReplyDeletethat's fantastic!
Thanks,
Amei seu blog, já estou te seguindo. Quando puder da uma passadinha no meu taperacomclasse.blogspot.com/
ReplyDeleteBoa semana, bjus!!!
That garland is so pretty -- I have GOT to learn to crochet!
ReplyDeleteJo, gostei tanto do seu blog! Vi que faz tempo que vc não o atualiza. Hoje fiz uma postagem no meu, aqui do Brasil. Se você usar o tradutor do Google você vai poder compreender. Diz assim:Nomes, inspiração e maluquetes
ReplyDeleteDizem que o nosso nome talvez seja o som que mais gostamos de ouvir. Acho também que a grafia dele promove em nós um efeito aconchegante. Digo isso porque navegando na blogsfera encontrei o http://aboutmoandme.blogspot.com/, de uma alemã maluquete chamada Jo, que deu o nome de Mo para uma criatura imaginária que lhe inspira artes e textos. É como se as intuições, talento, criatividade e habilidades pertencessem a um ser efêmero e volátil, que tem vontade própria, e nos visita quando bem entende. Adorei isso! Pois bem, lá no blog foi feito um sorteio em que uma tal Solange (não sou eu), também brasileira, ganhou o prêmio. A foto aí da postagem foi a forma como ela foi avisada. Sorte das três: da Jo, porque a Mo lhe dá ótimas dicas, da Mo que tem a Jo como forma de concretizar suas ideias e da Solange que ganhou a guirlanda. Pensando bem, sorte minha também, que tive a oportunidade de pegar carona nessa viagem. Bom fim de semana a todas!
Olá Muito Prazer!!
ReplyDeleteAdorei seu blog,tem lindos croches por aqui!Parabéns!!
Beijos.

Hi. I just tonight discovered your website, read through, and thoroughly enjoyed it all! Jo and Mo need to come back!
ReplyDeleteI hope you are well.
very beautiful blog and ideas!!!!
ReplyDeleteBeautiful garland!
ReplyDeleteMe gustó mucho!
ReplyDeleteYou’ve made wonderful garlands with Mo! The tutorial you posted here is very helpful. Thanks a lot! Your followers can make one by themselves as I already did. I’ve made wonderful one by myself and it felt great! When things gone wrong in following the tutorial, some small things might have gone wrong but don’t get tired trying!
