I think it says that the editors/publishers really do know a thing or two about a thing or two.<br /><br />(It will be a while before this issue reaches New York, but I have already been visiting some book shops (like B&N) to inquire about when the issue will arrive, and also some yarn shops to encourage them to be sure to stock MM.)<br /><br />This really is quite wonderful. <br /><br />I had some British ladies from Oxford in the shop today, and they knew all about your village and the beautiful area round there. I told them how delightful it was to think I'd seen new lambs feeling their first rain drops.<br /><br />Gosh, Gretel...I am rambling. I will email you. xoFranceshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08352407314710067616noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-13313028.post-31116215798216472352012-04-13T23:36:24.056+01:002012-04-13T23:36:24.056+01:00i love your work...its absolutely amazing!!!

Making the cover, oh well done you, I am sooo excited......<br /><br /> Your little doggies are just so cute with their berets and hearts. <br /><br />I know there's alot of needle felting around in blogland Gretel, but your attention to detail and your style makes your work stand head and shoulders over anything else I've ever seen. <br /><br />Congrats you deserve it....<br /><br />Claire xClairehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09742003349610251189noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-13313028.post-1635806707662734342012-04-13T18:56:04.014+01:002012-04-13T18:56:04.014+01:00Your felted figures are absolutely adorable!
