I woke up this morning to snow on the ground. It is sunny outside now and I can see a lot of the snow is already melting.
So much happened last week. First with Karen from Sew Many Ways writing her posting that sent so many of you to come and look at my blog. Then Norma from Pink Bling Crafter who also wrote a posting about me and my blog after reading what Karen wrote. This whole big chain reaction thing happened and I was so excited and happy to have each and every one of you just stop by even once for a look at what I do on my blog, but thrilled to have gained so many new followers and the comments I received are all so wonderful and much appreciated.
It's the connections that we make through being a follower, a blogger, or making comments that keep us going and get us inspired and inspire others to continue what we do. Before I felt as though I was doing a show-and-tell to an invisible mute audience. I couldn't see any of you or know what you thought. Now I have made connections and know some of your names and even faces from your photos. I know you like to see who we bloggers are from reading what Karen wrote about what makes a good blog on her site, but as a blogger it's so nice to also see who you are too. Even if you don't have a blog, it's nice to be able to put a face with a name or visa versa. Then a few of you mentioned to me that you had family or grew up here in New Mexico and you see the world keeps getting smaller.
I have followers from other countries now too and that's so great. I love that we can communicate through Google Translator. I truly feel like I have made some wonderful friends through this blogging experience and I really appreciate your thoughts and your visits here.
Hugs to you all. Now it's time to work on my next tutorial, so check back later this week. See you are already inspiring me to work on a new tutorial.

Thank you so much for your comment. I appreciate every one. If you do not hear a reply back from me, it could be that you are a no-reply, or that Google/Blogger has changed something (again!) making it impossible to respond back to you. If you want a reply because you asked a question, please fill out the Contact Form located on the right side of the blog and I will respond to you that way. Thank you for stopping by! I was forced to add comment moderation due to huge number of SPAM!
