Lorna C. Newman said... Thanks everyone for the comments. I must say that this is all credit to PR. Had I not discovered this place two years ago, I owuld never have dreamed of making something like this let alone finding the fabric! All the help from everybody makes it a lot easier to try something like this. This community makes me want to keep trying new things. I did get loads of compliments last night at the party ... and the DH loved it, too. 12/5/04 11:27 AM
