I have always loved maiolica, even before I learned how to paint them. <br />I try not to overdo and keep many pieces out of sight and often I have to part with them, but I never forget a single one of them. <br />Again, Mark, you notice every detail. That is why you are such a fine artist.Ginahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03429484235583035595noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3305117665027937006.post-33072197403185611472011-12-14T06:48:01.305-07:002011-12-14T06:48:01.305-07:00Dear Lala, It does not take "green fingers&qu...Dear Lala, It does not take "green fingers" to put a few bulbs into soil. They grow without any help from us. Only a ltle water now and then. Anyone who can sew as expertly as you can and one who creates such bautiful objects as you have should have no trouble with flowers. <br />Wishing you and Mon Chreri a lovely holiday season.

Mixed up sugar cookie dough this evening, that will be cut into star shapes and baked tomorrow.
