...reaching across the world...


Well, I finally made it into Inspirations, a beautiful magazine for needlework enthusiasts. It feels great!

What started out as a fun "letter" to a request by the magazine, and my response to them about the power of the internet, has led me to be featured in their magazine, and to receive a beautiful letter from another reader, Judy, who used to live in Australia and who now lives in the USA.... the power of the internet... it connects people all over the world.

Just when you think no one reads books/magazines anymore, we find other kindred spirits who find joy in both printed matter and digital media, and who are willing to share inspiration with each other. Add the bonus of their taking the time to touch your heart with kind words just makes everything you aspire to achieve all the more worthwhile.

It is Judy's letter that inspired me tonight to take the time to post to my blog, add to my web site, and respond to her letter.... every once in a while you have to be reminded to stop, sit back, and take a moment for yourself. Thanks Judy!

Hello Heather, What a lovely surprise to find your post about how we met. The magazine article about you was super but much to short. You are right the magic of the internet can be truly wonderful. Hugs Judy from Western Michigan
