DEAR MARINA/ROOTEN, YOU ARE A BEAUTIFUL WOMAN AND YOU MUST BE A MATH WIZ. YOUR WORK IS SO EXCEPTIONALLY BEAUTIFUL. THE ROSES YOU MAKE FOR YOUR BAGS ARE GORGEOUS. YOUR TALENT IS YOUR GIFT FROM GOD. WHO WOULD HAVE THOUGHT NOT SO MANY YEARS AGO WE WOULD BE CORRESPONDING WITH PEOPLE FROM ALL OVER THE WORLD AND IT IS PRETTY EASY TOO. I LIVE IN FLORIDA NOW ALTHOUGH WE WERE FROM MASSACHUSETTS UNTIL A FEW YEARS AGO. THANK YOU FOR SHARING YOUR TALENTS WITH US, peterparley
