Circle Find: Gourds by Design

 I have been having a great time with Etsy Circles. Finally, I get to see wonderful artists through the eyes of my circle members that I would not have seen otherwise! Case in point is Gourds by Design.

Favorite Shops: Asian Art & Quilts

 One of my personal favorites is Asian Art & Quilts. I work with a quilt art organization and really admire fabric arts. My grandmother used to make quilts, I was never quite that patient!
