thanks DJ sounds very interesting. I will give this a try some of mine are past their prime. Thanks for the advice. always looking to learn something new.
I'm doing great....(knock on wood) haven't broken anything lately!
Hope you are doing well. Working on a quilt with my Wednesday night quilt group. It is really hard and way past my comfort zone. I will post it when it is done..... hopefully that will happen this year! It has a nine patch in the center of each square that is made up of 1 1/4 " squares! taking lots of deeeeep breathes!

When dry you can arrange in clear glass jars with matching rocks in the bottom or stuff jar with matching tinsel. They keep for years. Take outside & gently shake to remove dust. My daughter dipped in glue/paint with glitter, made pretty Christmas decor. My mom made caches for your winter closet with them. Hope this helps!
You doing alright?
