Nice Matters!

I was surprised to get an email from Sam at Gollywobbles last night with a "Nice Matters Award!" I was so flattered by the things she said about me. Thanks, Sam! So now I am supposed to choose 5-7 people who I think deserve it.

1. Helena Chutjian of  Snowpond Primitives. We met each other over the internet several years ago and have become really good friends. We have never met in person, but I feel like I have known her forever! And besides being nice, she makes the coolest carved Santas!

2. Fran Hawkins of Stardust Wishes. Fran is one of my kitty friends! We always have plenty to discuss about our cats and what they have been up to. And when we do a swap, she always thinks of sending  snacks for my cats of if someone has kids, she remembers to include them. How sweet of her! I have several things she has made...my favorite are some felt Halloween bags!!

3. Carol Gefre of Prairie Creek Primitives is another kitty friend....we talk & talk about cats & creating and gardening. We never run out of things to say to each other! And I am always amazed at how much she accomplishes--with a shop and creating! I must say, she has some yummy smelling soaps!

4. Zoe Hebert of Cajun Primitives--always nice, always encouraging.....we've known each other a while and I always enjoy talking  with her. I think one of my favorite patterns is a Raggedy Ann that she designed (with fingers!)

5. Michelle Schafer at The Studio at Crow Haven Farms--we have recently gotten to know each other through working on some graphics and we seem to have so much in common! Especially when it comes to music....we just did some new graphics for tags, etc. for her business and she is pretty free with the compliments on them. I love it!

6. Lisa Johnson at Skunk Hollow Country Store --always nice, always fun to talk to and she is always trying to help others....

7. Ellen Irving of Raggedy Cats--even though she threatens to come get Sweet Pea, its all in fun and we have a good time joking about it. And she has sent me & my niece some really cool scarves!
