The healing power of crafting...

It's been so busy recently! Had to get the room ready for the girls, it's candyfloss and lilac:) Love it or hate it:) Workshops are picking up so well that I spend most of my time crafting and teaching, oh joy...!

Last night I realised how important crafting is in our lives, regardless what you do. I know I WOULD DIE without my quilting and cardmaking and all the other bits I do. But I am a gig:) Something happened that changed my way of thinking slightly.

A lady came to my class last night, she wasn't on the list and I was surprised to see her. And then she said that something terrible happened in her life recently so she thought she would come in and do a bit of cradmaking. My heart fell into pieces, all I could do is to give her a hug. We made fab Valentines cards and after they left I realised one simple thing: her coming to my class was such a compliment. She chose to come and spent some time with us, wow, that thought is so overwhelming! I am quite astonished. And I feel very privileged to have people like her in my workshops. It's motivating and it's pushing me to keep going! Money is not even that important! I helped someone in difficult times. I thank the Lord for gifting me with my skills for the energy to do this... I hope she feels better soon.
