  18. Hi Kathy, I just found you through Cozy Little House, and I feel such a connection. First of all, I'm so sorry about the loss of your good friend. I also love to create, and The Feathered Nest is one of my favorite sites. I also am a grandmother, make pincushions, quilt, love pink and green, and the list I think could go on. Your blog is beautiful and I'm so inspired by it. So nice to meet you!
