mary jo - would you consider doing a tutorial or answering questions for those of us that are interested in graph work??

[Schoneys]

my daughter would adore you Mary Jo. We just recently did her room in Disney Princesses. This blanket is absolutely gorgeous and I am so glad that my daughter is way too young to see this on the internet or else I would have to tell that mommy is no where this talented!!

 

I love it!!

Thank you threeolivemartini for the info on the subject. New to this type of forums.

 

Rebeccav- I would be more than willing to answer any questions anyone has on how to work with charts. :computer

 

Patience is easy when it is only you and the hubby home all day. Both retired with Children and Grandchildren up north.

 

I don't know if you would call if patience or impatience. I can't wait to see it done.
