In an effort to remember the 1,500,000 children who perished in the Holocaust , the Holocaust Museum Houston is collecting 1.5 million handmade butterflies.
The Butterfly Project touched my heart when I first heard about it, so I've made a butterfly to mail when I get to the States later this week...
Sure hope you'll consider making one too. You can find more info at the museum's website.
I'm busy preparing to leave this week for my trip to the USA!!! - so won't be blogging as much for the next month, but I want to thank all of you who have decided to follow my blog...new and old!!! Thank you!!!
Create your life,
annie!

ReplyDeleteHi Annie,
ReplyDeleteThanks for your recent comments on my blog - have been quilting more than spending time at the computer, so apologies for not answering you back sooner!
Your butterfly for the museum project is lovely - fabric collage is such a great medium!
Hope your trip to the US is fun - let me know if you are going to be near Bradenton for a possible lunch meet-up ;-0
Thank you Corrine! They're ALL around you...you just have to look for them. :)
ReplyDeleteYW Susan! Thanks so much. Don't give it another thought! I totally understand because I've been doing less art and more computering but need to switch that around! I'll be bringing my contact info with me and hope we can get in touch. I'm already worn out though - just from the plans we've made!
ReplyDeleteYour butterfly is beautiful! Wishing you a great trip back to the States!

I don't know how you dare say I'm making you tired lol your work is so much more skilful than my cobbled together 10 min bracelets etc, thanks so much for telling us about this project - I had no idea about this, will defiantly be sending off a butterfly or two, much love Jennibellie x
