Your group looks wonderful, talented and diverse. That must be a fun get together. What an honor to be in the paper.<BR/><BR/>I have always wanted to try the Kool-aid dying thing. It seems pretty simple. The yarn is beautiful, especially the handspun. Lovely.<BR/><BR/>Oh and I love Melody's shirt from the last post, the smart cookie one. That's the best.
