"Whoever you are, I have always depended on the kindness of strangers." (Blanche DuBois - A Streetcar Named Desire)
Wonderful Sara, who resides at Fifth Child Studio , and sweet Jann of A Vintage Heart , have surprised me with this lovely blog award. I guess I am always a bit startled that there are people out there that actually visit me here and appreciate my artistic attempts and occasional blithering! The guidelines for this honor are as follows:
In accepting this award, I agree to:
1. Display logo and link to who gave it.
2. Nominate at least 7 blogs.
3. Add links to those 7 blogs.
4. Leave the nominees a message that they received the award.
I have discovered so many wonderful new blogs and treasure those I have visited for the past few years... a difficult feat to choose only 7 of those. However I will pass along this award to a few that some of you may not have yet come upon. Please take a moment to visit them and enjoy something new!

Me again Deb! Just been catching up on your blog and I have to say how magnificent it all is! Your sketch of your dear dad is indeed very powerful - it took my breath - it just exudes emotion. And OMGosh, what can I say about your dad's carvings?? Phenomenal - now I see where you get your artistic talent from. And your necklaces are just superb! It's always a real pleasure taking a trip through your blog, you inspire me so much! Hope you're well and I'm thinking of you ;o) xx

Thanks so much Deb for your kindness in remembering and honoring me with this award, especially since I am a relatively new blogger. I'm off tomorrow, so I'll figure out who to pass it on to and get my post together. Thanks again,
Jill

Hi Deb...well it's been awhile and I am now on a mission to rectify my absence on so many blogs of those I adore.(you being one). I think you received a much deserved award. Kindness large or small is always a bright spot in anyones day, don't you think?
So much of your art to catch up and swoon over. I hope you are well, I hope you are happy and I hope you are busy creating even more of your fantastic creations.
I will do better at stopping by to leave a hug and say hello.
XOXO
