Maybe some gold thread work to embellish around your woodland fairy....<BR/><BR/>You are doing very well on your self commitments. One day, many years ago I decided I hated the words "I'm gonna..." since they always referred to what I was not doing. I made a mental commitment to either say "I am...." and if not, then just to say "I like..."<BR/><BR/>I felt a lot better as I no longer had the inner sense that I was shortchanging myself. Basically if it is worth wanting to do, it is worth starting to do and conversely, I did not have to do everything that I admired - just pick, choose and go ahead.sewnuthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05007381015104001916noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-25212042.post-1157844848259586642006-09-09T19:34:00.000-04:002006-09-09T19:34:00.000-04:00Sorry to hear that you are having problems.

She gave up her art (mostly) when the great depression came along and she found she had to support her mother and 2 sisters. Then the war. Then marriage and us kids. I am sure enjoying looking at that part of her life with her. She is 94, all with it (a little short term memory lose), and relativly healthy. I feel so fortunate to still have her.<BR/><BR/>Rae<BR/><BR/>PS.

They are made in Germany and are fantastic - better than Gingher. They have little scissors with wonderful sharp points and short blades. I use them for my appliqué and other cutting - I have 4 pair now! Do an internet search for "Dovo shears". You'll find lots of sites that sell the barber shears made by Dovo, but you should be able to find the sewing ones too. Unfortunately I can't remember the site where I bought mine.Pattihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07125491177774966237noreply@blogger.com
