A Heavy Heart

My fellow crafters,

I am writing to you with a heavy heart and puffy eyes. Kathy has come to the decision to close the store. It wasn't an easy decision, but one that needed to be made for the best for everyone concerned. We are going to try and stay open as long as possible, but we will definitely be closed by the end of the month.

It has been a wonderful and extraordinary 3 1/2 years for me. I have shared joys and tears with you. I have seen you bring life into the world and have been there during the tough times. I have seen you grow in your crafting. Some of you have moved away and some of you I have just met. You have all touched my heart in so many ways. I want to thank you all for sharing with me a little of yourselves. Without this store, I would have never found the artist in me and my true calling.

THANK YOU ALL!!!!

Sincerely yours,

Bianca Gaspard
