  1. V-labour of love both in regard to the elm and the sample book. The sample book almost makes me want to do shifu - maybe in another life. Go well. B

  4. Your garden looks so delightful Velma!
    I imagine that to wander around with you would be to learn so much.. what things you've made with what and much more!
    The workshops looked like a wonderful success and interesting all these things I'm not familiar with!

    c, i'll bring some shifu "stuff"
    k, the class was so great. and i'm finally using the book which i made years ago, fits perfectly
