I’ll be popping in less over the next six weeks as I prepare for my lower back surgery in early May and then take the time needed to recover well afterward. I’m also working hard to get several new recordings uploaded to my new YouTube audio reading channel before surgery, so my days are a little fuller than usual right now. Don’t worry—I’m not disappearing, just stepping back a little for a season. Please keep the community active, warm, and encouraging while I’m quieter here. Support each other, share your projects, celebrate progress, and keep the good spirit going during the days I’m absent. Don't forget to check out what's available in the Classroom. There is no shortage of projects to get involved in, so stay creative.

- I’ll start with a letter and a theme. - You comment with something that fits the theme using the next letter. - Then the next person continues with the next letter, and so on. - If the game slows down, you may participate several times to keep it going. Theme # 1 - Vintage & Old-Fashioned Words

Think of these links as our Cozy Makers “tool basket”—a handy place to grab inspiration, resources, and helpful tools whenever you need them. To keep the space meaningful for everyone, YouTube inks must be relevant to our handmade-focused community.

I will take it for framing on Monday!!! 🎉
