part of my tribe

I have mentioned on several occasions how blessed I am by the friendships and bonds that have been formed through this blog. Particularly a group of gals that I have joined forces with so to speak. A few months back I was contacted by Skye and Kasey about joining a group of bloggers that have the same interests and are mostly small shop owners such as myself. I hadn't met Kasey but had already been in contact with Skye because she won a piece from my collection. I had fallen in love with her heart instantly through our email exchanges. Though I was hesitant to join the group due to time restraints and didn't know if I could actually commit, I'm so glad I did. 

There are eight of us bloggers who meet up in a live video chatroom where we discuss the agendas we had been given before the meeting and maybe a small assignment or task. We talk about our inspirations and struggles and we motivate and mentor each other. It is such a fantastic group and I have benefited greatly from these lovely women. The group consist of Skye, Kasey, Kelsey, Aubrey, Cassie, Kate and Chelsea & Morgan. We have met a few times now through Google +. The set up looks like this. 

I can't wait for you to get to know the gals from my "tribe" and today I'm  stoked to introduce the first. 

Skye from Neathering our Fest

I love how Skye talked about our tribe in this post and this little excerpt was perfect so I had to share

"a tribe is a group of like-minded people that you can identify with on a personal and/or professional level. it has nothing to do with blog genre or niche, whether or not you have a shop, level of expertise, age, sex, race or anything like that. tribes aren't meant to discriminate in any way - they are to bring people together."

and I'm so happy this tribe brought Skye and me together! So without further ado meet Skye
