Catholic Worker crusader Dorothy Day with her prison dress [covered with autographs!] On November 1917 Day went to prison for being one of forty women in front of the White House protesting women's exclusion from the electorate. Arriving at a rural workhouse, the women were roughly handled. The women responded with a hunger strike. Finally they were freed by presidential order.

Leapin' Lizards Shoes: I put myself through college working as a made-to-measure shoe salesperson / crafter in San Francisco. My brother made the bases; I measured feet and attached straps (wondering if I made these!). Had a pair like this I wore to my sister's wedding.
"I believe that everything happens for a reason. People change so that you can learn to let go, things go wrong so that you appreciate them when they're right, you believe lies so you eventually learn to trust no one but yourself, and sometimes good things fall apart so better things can fall together." Marylin Monroe

So ♥ Elizabeth Taylor: Asked why she appeared in public with her head shaved after a brain-tumor surgery, she told an interviewer that maybe others would see the picture — and say, "Hey, if she can get through it, so can I."

You are probably wondering, "Whats in it for us?" Since not everyone is going to be in Atlanta, we should do something nice for everyone who has helped us out. Here is the deal, EVERYONE who shares this photo on their page with Either a link to our Facebook page, or Fiesta yarns Facebook page, and some fun comment about the games. Will be entered into a drawing for a BWC prize pack. If you post links to both companies, you might just get entered twice. :)
Brookline, MA. native Mike Wallace. Sad to see you go, Mike... a newsman's newsman.

“There is more to sex appeal than just measurements. I don't need a bedroom to prove my womanliness. I can convey just as much sex appeal, picking apples off a tree or standing in the rain.” ― Audrey Hepburn

Eva Zeisel: The 105-year-old matriarch of industrial design brought exquisite and simple forms to tea pots, cups and saucers, salt and pepper shakers and everything else the mid-century style collector needed.
Michelle Obama: bringing style back to the white house one great outfit at a time. . .

“I am satisfied that happiness in marriage is not so much a matter of romance as it is an anxious concern for the comfort and well-being of one’s companion. Any man who will make his wife’s comfort his first concern will stay in love with her throughout their lives and through the eternity yet to come” Beautifully said.
