I clearly am still a little girl. And I have no plans for growing up. I am as excited now that my birthday is tomorrow as I was maybe, no maybe about it, 65 years ago—yep 65—waiting to be six—finally old enough to go to school. Bounce, bounce.
And already—I’m bouncing because the greetings are beginning to roll in. And a box arrived from Oklahoma yesterday. I’ve got two cards from Alaska —they are all on the mantel. No peeking ‘til the big day. BUT
I got a wonderful card via e-mail. It’s so fine, I must share—right now! No waiting.
Thanks go to Linda Clayton Hicks of Amarillo—where else?—in the growing up years and now of Massachusetts . Creative person? Just a little bit! She sent another draft—and I can’t decide between them.
Linda is an artist, quilter, beader, friend par excellence! Lucky me! Lucky you getting to visit Linda's quilting blog--

Oh, Trilla, I love both of these cards, too! The first is so lovely, but all those wonderful quotations on the second--that makes it my favorite, by a tiny edge! Linda is truly a wonder. We're lucky to have her as a friend. And I feel lucky that she put ME together with YOU. I am loving getting to know you via your blogs, not to mention our fun recent, face to face, visit!
Trilla, our friend Linda is a creative Wonder, for sure! In fact, I looked - in a hoping way - to see if one of those quotes was from LINDA. The Wordsworth quote fits into your love of writing and of letters ...special, as are all of them. I know you had a fabulous birthday. Happy, Happy - Sherron
What lovely cards, Trilla. I'm going to turn over a new leaf and send cards to all my friends next year. We've all had our birthdays for this year, I fear.
