Oh MY! Thanks so much!
My heart is so warmed with all the supportive comments on my last post. A sincere THANK YOU to all of you lovely ladies. :) I'm so excited. And yes, the photo down there (the heart) is a sneak of one of the fun projects! YAY!!
Second...I have to share my birthday present from my Mom. She usually gives me some cash to do with as I see fit... and this is what I spent it on...
This is a Betz White original!!! Its like a Picasso in my book...an orginal piece of art created by Betz--wow...and its mine! I can't wait to see it in person! [I hope I'm not in trouble...I lifted this photo from Betz's Etsy after I bought it.] Just look at the whipped cream on top!! If you're not familiar with this amazing artist...you need to check her stuff out. I'm thrilled to own a little piece of her felted treasure. This little Cup O Joe pin cushion was made from recycled wool sweaters!! Isn't that just so cool!! THANKS MOMMA and Betz!
Well, I gotta run...basketball games tonight, a party, a coffee date with Jenny...lots to do.













i love Betz White. I too have wanted one of those little darlings! I am so intimidated to make one myself!
Enjoy when you get it in real life.

Girl - if I would have known that you were a Betz fan, I could have hooked you up at the show!
