SURPRISE LETTER IN THE MAIL



 One of my very Favorite Author/Illustrators Tomie dePaola surprised me with a response to a letter I wrote to him 2 yrs. ago I enjoy rereading his book "Christmas Remembered" every Christmas season. I also have several of his children's books  in my collection.

 I've been wanting to make a Marlynne Folk Art Angel for my Studio Wall so got it done this past week. Of course she had to be dressed in red with polka dots! I have some others cut out to make for the shops too!

I enjoy my hanging pennants so much I decided to make some for the shops and maybe bag up a few sets for sale.

Fun fabric half circles ready to string with Twisted Jude Twine. I'd like to invite you to visit my other blog; www.preciouscottage.blogspot.com and Marlynne Snare Folk Artist on Facebook. Wishing you a Happy and Safe 2014!
