Grab a cuppa whatever tickles your toes and get ready for a SuperSized Linky Love post with your hostess with the mostest, The Impatient Crafter™! I’m here to shower some love on some of the best posts in the crafty blogosphere and to give some love back to folks who’ve offered it to me freely. Thanks!
My dear friend Jean Yates designer and writer extraordinaire has a regular column in Australian Beading magazine! She was kind enough to include a feature in her new column about yours truly and it’s beyond stellar. Thank you JEAN!
Creativity Guru Ms. Suzi Blu has created an AWESOME video tribute to the amazing Bernie Berlin on YouTube. I love both of these crafty, compassionate women. I’m with Suzi, let’s help Bernie make her dream real!
Crafty Chica has a FAB new low-sew book out with Potter called Crafty Chica’s Guide to Artful Sewing. I’ve seen it and it rocks...hard. If you’re afraid of putting the pedal to the treadle, fear no more. Chica shows you how to sew without a net and she does it with style and humor. Gotta love it! She’s having a contest with some awesome prizes so go leave a comment!
I know a lot of amazing women, but I have to admit that Deb Quartermain tops the list. I've never met anyone with a more positive, uplifting, infectious joie de vivre. It informs her artwork and the way she moves through the world. She doesn't realize that I've decided she's my mentor, but she is. Deb posted a very nice blurb in her blog about the new books...thank you Deb!
