Go to Leah's website....daystyle designs (I think) and you'll get a lot of tips, designs and helpful info.
Music is great. :-D I also sing to myself, which is maybe not so great! :shock: :lol: And if I'm doing hooky curves for example, at the curve I actually say outloud "cuuuuuurve" and at the point I sat "POINT!". It's OK, my family are used to me! :mrgreen:
