Can you come to the states and give me some crochet lessons? Please??? I will cook for you!
ReplyDeleteYes, come to the states and give us a lesson and I'll come and Kris can cook. Maybe Kate and Pammy Sue can join us. :-)
ReplyDeleteI like the grey background better, it sets off the color better, the brown kinds of "eats" the color.
I **LOVE** the colorful eye-candy, reminds me of my post of Dahlias today!
