Hip, Hip, Hooray! Magazine Debut

Wednesday, August 18, 2010

So thrilled to be included in the Better Homes and Gardens Holiday Crafts 2010 issue!


I'm tickled pink to have my Woodland Trees Pillow featured along with a short bit on little 'ol me and instructions to make a variation of this fun pillow.



Better Homes contacted me last year....how did I possibly keep a secret for this long? I think mostly because I was so nervous I'd end up as an honorable mention or maybe it would turn out to be a joke... Well, in any case, all my nerves were for nothing because hot darn there I am on page 16.  And what makes me proudest is all the other amazing crafters & designers included in this magazine...it really is a happy & inspiring issue!


Ok...now back to more celebrating!
