    OH my gosh!! They made me cry they are so good. I think my favorites so far. I love the colors and softness. They seem so happy too. I would love to have known this artist. Thank you for posting it. I was feeling sad cause my kids left to go back home after a visit with me this weekend. This has cheered me in the best of ways.
