So THAT is what I would look like if I rode a horse. Ba ha ha...poor horse! (snicker)

A bib-great idea, have you seen the plastic ones that have a little shallow pocket along the bottom that is open--so when the food splats on there is slides into the pocket. Thinking the leather might be a bit slick. Or maybe a quick "Man Bag" for dad for the quick run to the store--hold a couple diapers, maybe a bottle, and a rag, maybe his cell phone

Your had sewing is super clean! Love it. I was zooming on the machine sewn part but with hand sewing like yours who needs a machine. lol uh ok...maybe for quickness but still. It is a good looking piece. Marie

Love the logo. Love the pink

I have an Iwata as well, HB-c (I think). What I love about it compared to Badger or pasche is how it feels in your hand. Smooth steel, heavy with quality (not uncomfortable) and perfectly balanced. Sure the Badger and Pasche will do the job but the Iwata is my fav. If you are just starting out..hey work your way up. Though I just saw some today online somewhere for $119, which is half of what I paid for mine many years ago.

WOW!! Gorgeous work!

Sweeet. They are great!! M

Chopper is BEAUTIFUL!! THe other fur babies are too! But I love the color -brindle? I think. Nice looking collars too! Marie

You are welcome-I love jewelry and do some beading and wire, my head is FULL of ideas screaming to get out. At least I think it is the ideas. hmmm. Can't wait to see what becomes of it. M

Do you have a stained glass place around you? We use a few patina liquids that might work on them. I bet if you went in, or called they might be able to help you use the ones you have. Also Bearman has more experience with Stained glass than I do, he might be able to tell you right off the top of his head if something like this would work. Marie

Tom your piece is beautiful. I did a little photoshop action and forgive my novice abilities with a touch pad and pointer finger--lol If only I had a pen and a digital pad! Anyway, I picture your necklace with a silver wire wrap, then to swirl down and be hammered flat on the swirl but with texture. Then instead of a chain, two more flat hammered silver pieces to form the back of the necklace, then hooking on to a clasp. It would give it that flexibility but yet be somewhat form fitting and sexy too. Just my 2 cents. I love wire work and the elements all together would be gorgeous--just sorry I couldn't get the vision in my head onto the photograph. Personally I like the left side of the thing I did...more feminine. Hope this comes thru right. Marie

Bless you Hilly, They passed out those bus driver forms to the kids to take home to their parents. My daughter was 13 hands it back and says "OH I don't think you want my mom behind the wheel of the bus unless you want the kids to learn a whole new vocabulary!" Making me sound all redneck LOL But totally the truth unless I was issued Duct Tape--forget it!! ha ha

Friday the 13th, black cats & ladders don't get me but a full moon....the freaks come out! I used to work for United Airlines....and you knew by the calls when it was a full moon! Crazies! PS...hope your finger gets better fast!

Hey they are cool. But I think skull ones would be cool too!! hearts with wings are popular now too. How about those other kinds that snap around a pony tail for when you are riding? Look very American Indian. Those are cool, and you can really only find them in black. I would like to see them more artsy. Marie
