Above you state some doubt ...I so admire your work! Above you state some doubt about being an artist? Please DON'T! You are TRULY AN ARTIST - and your work is absolutely stunning!<br /><br />You and Dedri are my two favorite bloggers - or rather I should say my favorite crochet idols! Though in my early 70's, when I 'grow up' as a crocheter, I want to be just like you! I aspire to that level of talent and will keep working until I can achieve work such as you produce! <br /><br />It takes so much talent to design works like yours (and Dedri's!) and you seem to have that natural talent that most of us have to work twice as hard to achieve.<br /><br />Thank you for sharing your stunning mandalas with us - the inspiration you provide gives us incentive to keep working that much harder - to never give up! I am setting aside time this year to work on Circles of the Sun - and from there will purchase the Dandelion Mandala - and decide whether to square it or not. <br />It's not just the stitch work, but the color combinations that you use that make your work stand out way above that of most.<br /><br />In the couple of years since I came back to 'hooking' after many, many years away, I've been so delighted to find this online community which, to me, almost seems like being given another 'family'! The love and sharing in this hooky community is inspiring in itself. I'm amazed that such talented folks like you, Dedri and so many more are so willing to help the rest of us learn this wonderful, healing craft of crochet.<br /><br />A heartfelt THANK YOU and God bless you! You are truly an inspiration - and YES! you are an ARTIST! never doubt that, please!LitlBitshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10763589651049947481noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6050225546724228862.post-66104107914018890972015-08-19T11:57:37.571+02:002015-08-19T11:57:37.571+02:00Thank you Gail!
