[@GrandmaSezSo]

I have my alarm on youtube set (bell) but I never get an alert. Not sure where it supposed to send. It isn't in my email. I missed last WW b/c storm knocked lights out and missed today b/c I lost track of time.

Watching the replay. Glad to see you all!

[@barbaramcelgunn9811]

Wow...what can I say. Sonja's works are amazing and so varied! A portrait a night! The shading of the native lady was out of this world. It looks like a painting. The waterfall looks so real as well. Such a talented gal. Thanks for having her on

[@adannaya2]

Thank you so, so much. It's my release when I'm watching TV at night.

[@jenniferr8195]

I just love your interviews Marie! So nice to meet Sonya and Joanne on this week's Wooly Wednesday! How fun, and intesting to learn about Sonya's upcoming class that is more beginner friendly! Hate missing the lives, but so glad I get to watch the replays!

[@adannaya2]

[@lauramcnelly3413]

It’s so interesting to hear her story…encouraging

[@karenlewis1546]

Sonia, I am a cardiology NP and work with a heart failure team and people waiting for a new life. Your dad's love of the acrylic medium is so sweet. Waiting for a heart is so hard. I know that it was hard for you both. Sending love

[@adannaya2]

Thank you so much, and thank you for the work you do saving lives!!! 😊

[@tristasteurrys3313]

I love the colors in this project. I live in upstate NY so it's nice to see such vibrant colors... Come on Spring!!

[@alesagrant1087]

The amazing Sonja surprised me with a felt replica of my late dog. I was stunned. I'm not much of a crier, but I teared up. Of course I still have him.

[@adannaya2]

You're a doll. Thanks for watching, Alesa

[@monicadrewry4892]

It was great to hear how you began and to see your skill progression. I especially loved the château commission. Inspiring episode!

[@adannaya2]

Thanks! I got addicted pretty quickly 😅

Sonja's waterfall blew me away when she debuted it and still does! All of her art is sooooo beautiful, just like her.

Love Sonja's attitude about being willing to try anything. Obviously she succeeds and her enthusiasm is infectious. I'm sure the class will be a blast! Although I do have just about everything known to man as far as wet felting supplies go, I am interested in more info about the Makita sander you recommend, Marie. I couldn't find it on the Living Felt site.
