Jeri, And I apologise for not thanking you either personally or through Arachne for the review. I worked this weekend and the Aussie has been ill so I spent my one day off running around from pharmacy to pharmacy trying to find the right things for him (he will live despite how he feels today)

Hi Sue, After Sue's post I checked out the photos and I noticed the three unclaimed photos at the end of the sets.  The first one, a snowdrop in a heart of leaves is mine.  It was a workshop I taught at our local guild on different leaves, including some crescent ones.  Would you please move it int
