Far Away Friends

One thing I didn't expect when I started blogging was making friends all over the world. I should have. The internet provides so many opportunities to explore this planet and the people on it. Blogging in the quilting/crafting/sewing community means encountering many of the best kinds of people--creative, positive and lively.

 Jessie is one of those people--the creative, positive kind.  Her blog is full of happy adventures in sewing,  crafting and thrifting.  It's always a delight to see her posts pop up in my Reader and her emails in my Inbox.

I'm so happy to have her as a blog friend. Not because she sent me a package all the way from the UK--although packages from friends always bring a smile. (She sent me this darling apron. I love the gingham detail on the pockets. And the crocheted lace trim is very special.)

No, I'm happy because given all the ugly things going on in the world right now, Jessie is spreading joy and happiness, one blog post at a time.  And everyone needs friends like that in their life.  Thank you, Jessie, for being you!
