I woke up this morning feeling very blessed.

My book has been our tour for the last 13 days around the blogsphere and far beyond my thankfulness for friends and industry partners sharing about my book, I feel blessed.

I wrote this book to share my love of handmade and gift giving to others. What I have received in return has been a greater gift.

I am blessed with 3 beautiful daughters who inspire everything I do. I have a husband who has worked hard to provide for our little family and loves us unconditionally. And God has put amazing friends in my path to lift me up when I need strength.

All along this book tour, I am reminded of the people in my life who have selflessly helped me along my creative journey. Friends who have mentored me, inspired my creative soul, shared hugs with me, shared scripture and their loving hearts, and I am humbled and blessed beyond measure. Thank you dear friends.

Tomorrow is the last stop on the book tour and I'll be here to share the very last handmade giveaway and it's a big one. It' s a little handmade, a little bit notions and supplies for your own creations and more.

Today, I'd love for you to visit with some of my friends and check out the giveaways on their blogs and browse the stories and creations they've made from "Because I Love You Sew".
