241: thanks to loyal supporters like you

Ok, so here's the news: I'm gonna be on tv!

On Thursday, I was contacted by the producer of a crafty, fabric-focused PBS show and asked to do a ten minute segment.

I know this is old hat to some of the other designers, but for me it is another "holy shit" moment!

I actually have always had a hatred of being videotaped, of seeing myself on video, of other people seeing  me on video! We'll see how it goes. You know I'll keep you posted on all the details, right? I feel like I am bringing you along with me on this wacky road.  You are great company! Thank you so much for being so good to me. You have no idea how much it helps.

xo, m

BTW, I contacted FlatQuarterShop.com about carring your line of fabric. The own stated to get back with her in a couple of weeks. Woo Hoo!
