Feedback as good as ice cream

Flora Sekanova 2010

Current Broach of the Month Club wearer, Anna Miles, wrote a beautiful reflection on her experience wearing Flora's Sekanova's brooch.  I find her style of feedback extremely inspiring.  Even though it is not my work, I feel like I have been given a gift after reading this.

Brooch: Pink by Ross Malcolm

One of the nicest things happening in the 2010 Broach of the month club is that PINK, the broach, is on a Kombi tour of the South Island of NZ.  Sharon and Jo are my official heroes of the Broach Club.
