Please tell her that it is quite a museum piece and how envious I am of her talent. Wish I lived closer to you Fran, you have some very talented friends!

I think she was at it for over a year. She does not drive so I take her often to Sat. sews. She is very talented. I will tell her of all the compliments she has received here on the board.
