Bursting
August 21, 2012 You guys.
I've been on the verge of happy tears for the past 4 days because of all the comments you left me saying how much you really like my latest design and how much you would love to make one too.
I don't know how to say this. I love blogging. It motivates me to do my very best when I make something. And then I get to show you what I make. And you get to tell me what you think. And lucky me you are always so complimentary and appreciative and just make me feel so happy.
Yes I like to show you my things because who doesn't enjoy a little external validation now and then? But I also like to show you what is possible in my little world. And I LOVE inspiring people to dream about making pretty things, to want to make pretty things and/or to actually make pretty things.
Creativity is an amazing thing. Somehow I've always known that being creative - especially with needles and thread - makes me happy and keeps me sane.
So.
I have a something new to show you. Something I've been working on for a very long time. And I'm practically bursting at the seams. (The Queen of Punny strikes again!)
But I must wait for one more day to show you my new something.
See you tomorrow.

I look forward to reading your blog every day. When it's not there I feel so disappointed. Your work is lovely. I hope to be as good as you when I am an all grown up quilter. I am still in the baby stages of quilting.
