"Friends"

How many of you guys consider people you've met online as "friends"? Honestly, I used to laugh at the idea. I guess I didn't "get" the whole internet "dating" thing. Anyway, I've been "talking" and talking to a group of ladies on a private sewing forum. And to several of y'all in blogland. And I really feel like I've made some great Friends, not "friends". I love dropping in and seeing what new things you've discovered (Kim), or what new thing you've made (Beki and Vanna)... and dozens of other places that I've found others who have similar interests- and seeing all of the exceedingly great talent!

My sewing buddies have brilliant ideas... and have SUPERB skills. They are who I aspire to be when I grow-up :-) This week, I kind of forced my excitement to a new level... shocker, I know... I set us up with a group etsy market, and blog because it's just not fair to not share. We're working hard to get our ducks in a row to start loading things in... but BOY! How exciting!!! I'm sure I'll be posting the "grand opening" when we start filling our shop!
