I hope that he gets it worked out.  If not, just let me know!

Tell me about it!  I got my lawn mowed Wednesday.  First day that the temps
weren't in the 100's or it was raining since I got my mower back from the
shop the end of the week before.  As for crafting, I got a few things I 
eeded
finished before our show started Friday morning (like my Bargello 
kirt-turned
out GREAT!!, and the sleeve and label on my king-sized plus quilt that was to
hang in the show) and that has been it.  The "Show" was the Annual Assembly 
Day
for all members of TVQA (Tennessee Valley Quilters Association).  Our guest 
speaker was Ami Simms so Friday we had two classes offered with Ami (plus 
lunch
with Ami) and Saturday was Assembly Day with Ami giving a lecture ("Don't 
make the same mistakes I did"--Ami is the person responsible for the "World's 
Worst
Quilt Contest"), vendors with goodies for sale, lunch, door prizes and lots 
of 
socializing.  Last year's Assembly Day was so rotten that attendence was down 
at our show, but everyone there had a wonderful time!!  I am so glad that it 
is
over!  Oh, I had two quilts up for show at Assembly Day and got lots of 
wonderful comments on them!  I was so pleased!

Um, I think you dry them, shilack (sp) them and then attach them with string
to your Christmas tree!  :)  Oh, yes, cut the cukes, eggplants and other 
arge
veggies into slices first!  R,D,&GVB!!
Later!,
