Oh, Dearest Mother, Sweetest Virgin of Altagracia, our Patroness. You are our Advocate and to you we recommend our needs. You are our Teacher and like disciples we come to learn from the example of your holy life. You are our Mother, and like children, we come to offer you all of the love of our hearts. Receive, dearest Mother, our offerings and listen attentively to our supplications. Amen.

I hope this forum will be a beautiful place for us to share our crafts and ideas. Please be sure to provide links to your blogs or other sources of beauty you would like to share.

If you do not have a blog, we encourage you to use Flickr or another photo sharing service to show us your creations. If not, please pm me with a photo, and I will post it to a special blog set up for this purpose.

May Our Lady, who spent so many days in Nazareth gracing her family with the work of her hands, bless and pray for us!

Looking foward to this forum too! I am SO not creative, so I am SO guilty of stealing the beautiful ideas from those of you that are!   (always giving credit of course!)

Oh how exciting! Is it just for "crafts" or can we talk about our sewing projects too?

Honestly I was just thinking last night that y'all needed a forum here for this sort of thing and boom there it is!

What a wonderful idea, Alice. I was just thinking that I need to start printing out all of the beautiful ideas that have been popping up all over the blogging world and I'm afraid I've already lost track. This is going to be an amazing resource!

Thrilled, tickled pink, excited, jumping up for joy for this forum!

I've already got tons of questions to ask. Would this also be the right forum to talk about craft supplies? Organizing the craft supplies?

Oh,my! I don't even know what to say...this is just rocking and rolling..as my 12 year old nephew would say!

My ds is begging for crafts...I guess he didn't get the memo...his Mom really can't come up with them on her own!

Thanks,Alice!
