““After getting your toolkit, a group of us in Woodward decided we wanted to do something of the kind in our town. The result was to approach the city with plans to fiber bomb bicycles which would be placed at the High Trestle Trail trailhead and around town. We plan to have these out on a limited basis: the the 10th anniversary of the trail, for the town’s Friends and Neighbors Day and for the National Yarn Bombing Day. We wanted you to know that your toolkit was read and was useful, that another town is adding to this growing movement.” - Mary B., Iowa
”I started using the POW template for a new project I was really excited about but struggling to narrow down my focus and ideas. At first I wasn’t sure if it would be what I needed because parts of it did not apply to what I was doing but the more I filled out the more clear I became about my objective. The real game changer, however, was homing in on my mission and goals. Having that piece of the puzzle spelled out has given me confidence to move forward and begin making progress much quicker than I had anticipated. Now, anytime I’m feeling a bit frustrated or lost, referring back to my mission statement helps me regain focus and also allows me to adjust my goals while still maintaining a clear direction.” - Tina Campbell, Artist, Fence Row Photography, https://fencerowphotography.com”
