I have loved being a participant in this blog hop - every single one of you has helped me think about the quilts I want to make (and completely overwhelmed me with ideas) and how I can achieve these while maintaining a balance with other commitments. I thank you all for sharing your corner of the internet and your creative outlets, and look forward to seeing more of your endeavours! Thanks also to the amazing and patient Beth at Plum and June for organising the hop and for facilitating so many wonderful discussions.
Bravo everybody!
Great post, Jenny... And, Bravo to you, too! I agree this hop has made this a summer to remember for me! Great to have so many new and inspiring friends.
