merrie60us: cutting edges of blue sheet even
merrie60us: not sure now
stargazer_sbpcg: blue pearl...
faye_shelton: i think she's making the background filler in blue, to round out the cane
merrie60us: sounds right
merrie60us: squeezing blue
merrie60us: rolling
merrie60us: made a long snake
jude: Rolling, rolling, keep them doggies rolling...er...
faye_shelton: making snakes to tuck into the crevices, eh?

dahs512: Hi suzy
jill_z_q: Hihi Everyone
faye_shelton: the pic shows three flowers arranged in a square. the one on her site
faye_shelton: Hi Suzy
dahs512: she usually goes for square or round
merrie60us: maybe she is squaring it off now
merrie60us: wraps whole thng in a sheet of blue
stargazer_sbpcg: i'm still guessing triangle... hee-hee
merrie60us: maybe
jyladams: It is enormous!!
merrie60us: yes easier to reduce
merrie60us: in my humble opinion
merrie60us: nice
auntyalias: I got to press more pearl blue
auntyalias: I'm going for round
auntyalias: as opposed to square
stargazer_sbpcg: lol...
stargazer_sbpcg: you win!
merrie60us: so you are building it up to round it
dahs512: i have trobles reducing all shpes of canes
dahs512: but round is the easiest for me
merrie60us: it is a practiced art
merrie60us: I end up reducing them so small I can barely make the design out
merrie60us: sometimes
jill_z_q: reducing what is that?
dahs512: making the cane smaller
merrie60us: making the cane smaller by squeezing and stretching
dahs512: reducing it
jill_z_q: I'm being sarcastic
