Hey everyone!
Got a freebie pattern for you today!
After I moved my blog over here to Squarespace there were tons of different patterns I had previously on my blog for free that basically never made the transition over. However, I’m going to try and rectify that and start moving them over hopefully one each week. I’m sorry for it happening in the first place. Definitely realized with all this how non-computer savvy I am. Most definitely live and learn.
I also made a new IG account. Basically my best guess is my original one was shadow banned as I kept getting violations or I was at risk of being cancelled. Why? O I shared some funny reels to my stories and they were deemed to violate community standards so mine was removed but the original posts were okay insert eyeroll*. After I’d dispute it they’d come back and say oops and fix it but the violation still counted…so that’s a hoot. Anyways I had a lot of people reaching out that they never saw any of my content or anything just would see my stories occasionally. After months (its been like 8 approx), I finally decided to just try and start from scratch. I could revamp my whole page and use things I’ve learned previously throughout the years. I still have my original account active but I’m slowly trying to transition to the new one.
With that being said, here’s Apollo again available for you to make some amazing blankies!
