As you all know Jane has bucket loads going on in her life right now and she has been struggling (albeit valiantly and brilliantly) to fulfill all the tasks it takes to manage our blog, and has decided to hand over the mantle. I know that she is sad to hand over and that she will miss the contact she has with you all, but I do expect her to pop up now and then! I want to thank Jane for being so good and staying on to ensure a proper hand over, you have been amazing and I am so proud and grateful to call you friend.
The good news is that we have someone fabulous to take over as Blog Manager. Many of you will already know her as she has been a long term crafter and customer of The Craft Barn and it is...... drumroll please........Mickie Sutcliffe. For those who don't know her, here is a little Bio for you.
"I have been going to The Craft Bran for supplies
and classes for many years so some of you will already know me. However, for those who don’t my main
interests are stamping, exploring different mediums, home decor and making
books. When I’m not crafting I am
painting, to the extent that there is an overlap developing which I think we
might have to call mixed media ;0)"
So that you can put a face to the name here is a picture of Mickie and some other regulars at one of our recent classes. Mickie is on the far left of the back row as you look at the photo - the red circle may be a bit of a giveaway!!
I know Mickie has some ideas going forward and will be re-establishing the regular project posts shortly and continuing with both challenges. She will be coming on here to introduce herself to you over the next few days and I know that you will all make her feel welcome as she feels her way into the role. Please feel free to let her know if there is anything we can do to make the blog better for you.
See you soon
