I'm Honored...

I love to sew and I love to blog about it. Sewing is everything to me and when I'm recognized by my peers for sharing that love with others...I'm Honored.


This lovely statuette showed up in the mail today because my blog was voted "Most Inspirational" and "Best Basics" in Madalynne's Best Sewing Blogs 2016. I truly appreciate all of you who took the time to vote. Madalynne said she received over 2,000 votes which is pretty awesome ~ the sewing community turned out! 

To see the complete list of winners, the blog post is here.

I really hope you click the link and check out the winners. There are some awesome blogs listed there and I've even found a few new ones to follow!

A few thank you's ~ 
Madalynne - thank you so much for doing this every year but especially thank you for the amazing statue. This is the kind of thing that makes me get emotional...seriously!  The thoughtfulness of this is just awesome and it WILL get a place of honor in my sewing cave!

To my fellow sewing bloggers - I really do feel honored to be on the list with you. I admire so many of you for your talent and creativity...and you all challenge me to be the best sewist I can be.  So thank you for that!

To everyone who voted for me - thank you for the support, the love and for following along on my sewing journey. I really do hope I inspire you to sew more, buy more fabric, make pretty well-fitting garments, and to wallow in our shared passion - SEWING!

Thanks again and I'm so honored...

    1. Also, this is Amy of Sew Well. For some reason I can't get comments to come through that seem to have any identification. My Wordpress login is not working anymore for comments on Blogger.
