Thanks to Anna Banana for the Mail Art.

Hello everyone. I want to say thank you to everyone whose envelopes came to me. I'm sorry that I didn't write about this earlier, I was very ill (the second time covid-19). I received a lot of mail art during this time, but I didn't write about it on the website. Mail art provided a great support, all the works that I received are just wonderful and magical!

Every time we meet, one of us does an artist stamp to be shared with co-op members.  Many keep their stamps in special passports.   For our 10^th anniversary…

Thanks to Carolyn Oord (a. k. a. Kerosene)! Time to remember the letters we received this past spring. A miniature a little bigger than a matchbox in an elegant envelope - a memory of the winter chills of early 2021!
