You know Rebecca Sower. I've been a fan of her for years (
Nostalgique ring a bell? Those wonderful products she designed were and still are part of my supplies). Rebecca, as I mentioned earlier, has a special connection to Haiti. Anyway, I just wanted to alert you to her new
Haitian Artisan Blog. I love what she has been and is doing in Haiti and especially that it's an arts & crafts venture as well. It reminds me of the saying: to paraphrase it, Give a person a fish and you feed them; give them a fishing rod and you give them a way to make a living. There is a
Haiti by Hand shop and yours truly is honored to be a part of it.
I want to pass on Rebecca's thoughts, because I agree with her:
I just hope we aren't growing weary of hearing about it all and getting back to life as usual. That is what worries me.
Love, Colette
