Thank you Cristy, on a fantastic December Mail Art.
The hand sewn and quilted Backgammon Board was beautifully done! The colored buttons were a perfect touch. Getting in touch with our nostalgic past -- it would be so correct to use what we had to make clothes, games, and household items. The old "Waste Not, Want Not" principle was in effect in my household when I grew up.
I loved the Dutch Girl personal sewing kit. And the Necco Candy Wafer candies was one of my favorites I would share with my friends.
I hope the picture come through okay.

Kristi, that is perfectly okay. I know you are busy and especially since it was right before the holidays. I am so glad you liked the book. I had so much fun putting it together. I just wanted to make sure it had not been lost.
Hugs, Portia
Wishing for the country life! |

Hi all: Am I correct that we are to keep our identity secret whilst sending this art mail? Thanks!
