Now anything that goes into the mini scenes is technically related to needlework via miniatures. creative folk can justify ANYthing julia_dodge: bugs do not eat clay but they do eat pasta rossija9: OK... I'll check the picture Phyllis posts & see what I come up with... phyllisinvegas: let me go see if I can find it now rjchase222: k sybi98: minimad: sounds like you are well into the 12 steps :) rossija9: And I thought my challenge would be to finishe my rainbow filigree frames tomorrow! rossija9: LOL rjchase222: LMAO right Mary!!! :) minimadness423: I need 12 steps???? or I figured out how to get around them???
