    Those are beautiful!!

    can we get a peek at the back of some? I'm doing small ones and they look so messy on the back. I know when they're finished it won't matter..but I'm curious to see if I'm at least on the right track. =)

    Hurrah for your wonderful mother and her creative spirit still strong despite the limitations of her physical body.

    You can tell from this work that she has been hungering to get going on something, can't you?

    Can't wait to see what you make with them!
