  1. I think what I love about Mary Lou is her as a person. I've never known anyone who finds so much joy in everything around her. Family, friends, sunsets, her flowers & even snow! You name it, she finds joy in it! No matter what kind of day I'm having once I go to Mary Lou's blog I will be riding the "Magic Carpet" in "Mary Louland".

  2. I think Sharon hit the nail on the head when she said that Mary Lou finds so much joy in everything around her. Not only is she creative, but she is loving and thoughtful and kind. I took a couple classes from her and speak from experience. When I read her blog I am often touched by her words.

  5. Mary Lou is the bomb! Although I have never met her, I find inspiration in her books and blog, in fact I just received her new book, and see a cow quilt on my horizon, someplace. :)

  7. So many amazing and inspiring people, I have only recently discovered Mary Lou and am totally fascinated by her style, but love the art element. If only we had 48 hours in a day :)
