I want to share an email I got the other day. I can't tell you how happy it made me.
Subject: Thanks for telling us about KIVA
Hi Henrietta,
I really enjoy both of your blogs. I found Henrietta's Other Hat because of your quilting and I've been inspired by your talent.
The quilting is amazing but it was some of your non-quilting entries that really touched my heart - and then my husband's when I shared them with him. Today we made two Kiva loans because of your words and encouragement. We gave you the credit for sending us - so hopefully you'll hear from Kiva. Thanks for sharing!
Isn't that just the coolest thing? Thank YOU Melissa for taking the time to write.
I have added a new blog to my Blogroll on the right. SpiderWomanKnits do check her out, I have linked to her post about making astonishingly easy (and quick) Market Bags from Vintage pillowcases. And, also, too, she has chickens!

Now it is time for tea, my lovely vintage J & G Meakin Cornflower pattern transferware cups (bought on Bonanza for $3.50 - 2 cups 4 saucers, what a steal) fit the mood today. Wish you were here, I have two cups!
Y'all come back!
Thanks Henrietta. So many have to make do with so little so it is wonderful to make a small difference. I've told friends and family about KIVA so you're making a difference in the world and that's something that should make you very proud.
