Words from Brooke



Just for the fun of it, I sent Brooke Nolan pics of my needlebook that I made from her design. I didn't expect a response from her, but guess what? She sent me an email:



Meari!!!!!!
Oh my stars! My heart just about stopped when I saw your photos yesterday. This is SO lovely...I'm speechless. Thank you so so much for sharing this with me. Your work is exquisite...Your stitching is beautiful and the needlebook design is gorgeous...I love the gold braid...It's just so delicate and lovely to look at. You did a GREAT job. I was wondering if you would mind me putting your photos on my blog and talking about it to the Yahoo! Group. I wouldn't give away any of your contact info but I think other stitchers would like to see what you did with this letter block. Let me know if that's ok...

Thank you SO much for contacting me and thank you also for stitching my design...You really made my day...week...month...year...LOL!

Take care,
Brooke
