I am so thankful to you Dear Reader for your companionship and encouragement over the years, and especially for you who leave comments...even Mr. or Ms. Anonymous. You have made me feel heard, which is something we all want.We wish you a very Happy Christmas, full of family and love and a super great New Year.
Love,
Melody and Dave

ReplyDeleteKeep your inspirations coming in 2009. I need to get myself in gear and do what I have been wanting to do for many years. I don't want to be Queen of Procrastination anymore.
YAHOO!!! to the New Year!!

Merry Christmas to you and Dave. I just want to tell you how much your blog means to me. I only found it a month or so ago, but I know that each morning when the computer goes on, I can count on you being there to "talk" to me and give me inspiration. I am trying to find the art quilter in me and you help me to feel she is in there somewhere! I thank you so much and hope 2009 is a great year for all of us! HOPE is in the air!

Hi! I, too, follow your blog almost everyday. Your creative abilities and your energy amaze me. I hope I can borrow a little of that in the new year. Thank you for being you.
ReplyDeleteHi Ms Mel - Just to let you know that reading your blog is very important to me.
ReplyDeleteNot only have you inspired me over the years to become a better artist and dyer, reading about your life has on occasion given me the kick I need to get going in the garden, or to re-organize the studio, or to rearrange the furniture.
You are amazing and you do not seem to be the least bit aware of it. Your generosity with time and information is astonishing.
I wish you and Dave a very happy and a healthy new year.
Merry Christmas Melody & Dave! Thanks so much for sharing your process with us...it is so helpful, interesting and FUN! Here's hoping that 2009 finds you both happy & healthy!
