Hi Michelle,
Oh your sketches are so very beautiful! So very talented you are. I have posted a click-able picture on my sidebar already, I am already a follower -so no extra one there :(

Thank you for the chance to win such a beautiful birdie sketch. I will keep my fingers crossed. Sweet 16 will draw on Mother's Day, is that her Birthday? If so, Happy Birthday and Happy Mother's Day to you.

Hi Michelle, Karen K. referred me to your site several weeks ago and I love your work. I would be glad to have any of your drawings as they are all gorgeous and you are so talented. I also collect vintage linens, some of them my relatives embroidered in the late 1800's and a lot that my late Mom did. I can remember as a very small girl sitting by her in the evening watching her embroidery. My Mom was also very talented and could do anything related to needlework, sewing, etc. I am a follower of your blog and thanks for being so generous in giving us the opportunity to win one of your drawings.
