Table of Contents Issue 7 (Sep/Oct 2006) Fabulous Fall Issue |
Welcome to issue #7. The days are getting shorter and the nights are a bit chilly here in Pennsylvania. Our son is suffering through "Back to School" shopping trips and our daughter returned to college last week. This week I noticed that a few of my favorite beaded pieces seem to have made the journey to college too...oh well, it's nice when your beadwork is appreciated. |
