Oh, my goodness. Did I miss the party or what. Krystyna, I think you would be a riot to party with. And I don't need alcohol to have fun either!! Live it up, you only turn 60 once. Thank goodness!! Those are some great pictures. If I haven't said it yet, Happy Birthday!

I am taking Marty camping which is actually "cabining" a very nice house in the woods. Heat & air bedroom, spiral staircase to loft full kitchen and bathroom, microwave, stove and full size refrig for $50 a night, split two was it is pretty cheap for both of us. Nature trails and 4 fishing ponds. A little slice of heaven. So if you don't hear from me don't think anything of it. will post pictures when we get back. I think it will do her a world of good!

Pincushion makers
For those of you who make a lot of pincushions have you ever
used any of the emery sand (that keeps the pins and needles sharp)
in your pincushions?
I am wanting to try using the sand to and see how easy it is to
"fill" the cushions with and how I like working with it. Plus I want
to see if it will add some "weight" to keep them in an upright position.
Just curious of what you think about it if you have tried it.
I will be purchasing it from joggle.com when I do get the money to
buy it.
Also on the subject of pin cushions do you look at/for small things
that you can use as bases for pincushions?
I was browsing at a thrift store one and found some cute little "cups"
that I thought would be cute to use. I have 5 of them and they are about
1-1/2" high by 1-1/2" diam.
