I feel it's appropriate to let my blog friends know - my grandmother passed away last week. If you know me or have been a reader of my blog, you know that she is my crafting companion. We would spend hours - entire days sitting together working on projects. Sharing insight, ideas, memories, laughter, and food. This all came to an abrupt halt when she fell suddenly ill last September.

The last couple weeks have been dark and dragging for my family. I can't believe she is gone. She wasn't just my grandma - she was my friend. She is a huge part of mine and my brother's life - the only grandmother I ever knew in this lifetime. I feel like a part of me is gone - but I thank God for the amazing Grandmother I was blessed enough to have for 25 years.

I plan to continue on with my projects, imagining her words of encouragement ringing in my ear.

thanks for reading--
