I can’t tell you how excited I was to wake up this morning and find out that my bird with gold wings won a Softie Award! Nearly 3,500 people voted. It is so wonderful to know that there are that many people out there who really are interested in handmade soft toys. Making toys makes me so happy and winning this award is really so exciting for me. A big thank you goes out to Therese who organized this amazing contest. She secured excellent judges and excellent prizes. All her communications were really professional and she was so well-organized. Thank you for everything, Therese!
In other news, I am busy busy busy packaging up orders from my show. If you bought a piece rest assured that I am getting everything wrapped and packed up (my order from ULine came in – so excellent) and will be making numerous evening trips to the post office this week and next (good thing our post office is open until 7:00 pm).
If you celebrate Passover, Chag Sameach. If not, have a great night!
