"What are the servants of the LORD but his minstrels who raise the hearts of man and move them to spiritual joy?"
I have much to be thankful for because I have several people in my life that support me an my adventures. I have always been lucky to have many special people in my life. To name them all would be impossible; however, I couldn't have gotten this far with FACES without them.
My mom and dad, the best parents in the world have always supported everything I do. I thank my mom for her creativity and my dad for his patience, and both for their love.
My son, A.J., the love of my life. We sometimes fight for who gets the computer, but we have learned to share. I thank him for keeping me on my toes and young at heart.
To my best friend and love, Don. He has loved me and taught me much. He
supports me and also shares my life, loves, and has always been there for me
in through thick and thin.
My supporting friends, they are way to numerous to mention. But they are always there for me. Helping me to be creative, design, and continue on with all life's slumps when I am ready not to. Nancy, Maggie, and Lou always raise me to much spiritual joy.
My stitchers, they are the best. I could design all of these pieces, but no one would see them, without Betty Eiss, Jan Polesky, Suzanne Bloom, Erin Sheldon, Sarah Last, Karla Howard, Debbie Bourdreau, Lynette Holmes, Juli
Martin, Debbie Moore, Dawn Mills, Pauline Schmitz, Mickie Swall, Helen
Tellyer,and Daisy Whittaker. They have changed, added subtracted and stitched each of my samples with so much talent and love.
Barbara and Kirk Richards, are two of the nicest people in the world. I would not be where I am now and be able to adapt Barbara's beautiful watercolors withour their support and faith in me and FACES.
Karen and Jim and Patrick Hedgepath, my webmaster. Wow! Where would I be without their continued expertise and help. They are the best people to work with.
Hoffman Distributing Co. picked up my designs over 12 years ago, when I just began to convert my needlepoint to cross stitch charts. I only had two, but they had faith in me and continue to help me today. They are always there when I have question, and are a great company to work with. Thank you to Rod, Mike, and Lon.
Tim Plumlee, the designer of MasterStitch and Pixel Stitch, the computer program that I use. Tim, Sherrie, and Heidi, are very special. Tim always walks me through my computer illiteracy. Sherrie always tells me it will be okay, and Heidi sends her love to her other Aunt Becky.
Last but not least, to the stitchers and shop owners, who purchase my design, give me wonderful criticisms, and continue to support my efforts.
Thank you for your continued love, support and prayers.
