As someone who once did those fiber things, I'm surprised & pleased to know that the next generation is picking them back up. As a librarian, I'm also happy to know that you're haunting the stacks for those old craft books.

The pull in that letter highlights the stress (happy stress, if that's conceivable) of wanting to crewelembroiderknitsewdesigndyeandthrowpotterywhileyou'reatit.

The cover is so yummy!<BR/><BR/>How is it inside? Is it lovely inside as well? I would adore it if you get a chance to show us a few more interior shots but if not I totally understand. I assume that you are busy because I am positive that your assistant is on her way to my house as we speak! I can not wait till she gets here!!!Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
