Maria is making and finishing some lovely new potholders. Most of them are already spoken for, but five or six are still available. You can e-mail her – [email protected] if you want one. I love the idea, and I love the execution of the idea. I think it’s an idea all of us can use hanging up somewhere.

You can follow the process here.

This round of Pockets of Joy – a continuing series, perhaps – will be done over the next few days.

These potholders are a vivid insight into how creativity works.
