It turns out that I can't finish this project quite yet. I have the lace, but I realized that 1) I need a new razor blade to cut the fabric when I have it tight in the hoop, and 2) that I need glue (I use Aleen's Tacky glue for these projects) to secure it in the hoop/glue on the lace. So...I have to wait a bit more. I should start on a new project in the meantime. Now if only I could stop being sidetracked by other things that need to be done... Oh well. It's waited several months to be finished. It can wait a while longer...

it looks nice now, cant wait to see it finished. is there supposed to be a comma after tear? just asking since you have one after storm and case and didn't know if you forgot it or if its not supposed to have one.

I did it like it was written. Even if there was supposed to be a "," I'm afraid that I have no idea what color I did the words in.

I looked it up, and some things have it with the comma after "tear" and some don't, so...

I have many many works in progress. You will feel really good when you get it done.

Been doing this for years, so I know what you mean. Finishing a hand made project is a nice feeling, isn't it?

Well, glad you had another project to start on. That would have frustrated me.

In the meantime you can start a new project as you wait for the tools
