Thankful for the Crafting Community

As someone who was always shy about sharing what I make because it’s not perfect or as good as others’ work, the past couple of years’ worth of health struggles, plus the pandemic roller coaster we’ve all been on, has taught me there’s no point in hiding. And crafting has been helping me get through it all. I’m so grateful to the crafting community for the kindness and encouragement I’ve received as I share and continue to learn, and to all the designers for amazing patterns! I pour a lot of love into each stitch, and it makes me so happy when these little plushies make people smile. That is everything. ❤️
