What a way to warm up a frosty day in the
American Midwest. A copy of Australian
Patchwork and Quilting arrived from all the
way on the other side of the world. AND, it
has an article about me and my book. Oh,
thank you so much Australia ~ I can't wait
to finally get to see you next summer.
I apologize if the photos are a bit blurry
but I admit I was a bit teary when I was
taking the pictures. It was a mix of happy
and sad tears. You see, the article talks
about how my Mum encouraged my
interest in embroidery and our trips to the
Five and Ten store where I would always
want to buy embroidery floss while other
little girls were buying paper dolls and candy.
So, I sat down and had a big boo hoo. We miss
our sweet girl so very much... But I know she
would have loved this article, after all, it's why
she encouraged my interest in crafts all those
years ago.
Thank you so much Ally! I love it!
