Fishmomma I use to build that size and the flowers look challenging. Several of them are now framed and on my walls. Most of my puzzles are now 300, so I can do them myself without getting upset or not finish it.

A different 'take' on the birth of Jesus

Judy Evans @JudyEv (367390) • Rockingham, Australia 23 Nov

Bishop Salvado established the monastery town of New Norcia and I’ve written quite a few discussions about it. The aborigines he worked with and educated were not so much primitive but completely uninformed about what was...

Fishmomma I like the idea of making it relate to what you already know, as when people would tell me stories as a young person would understand them better. Now as an old person think I like to go explore online about other beliefs and ways things are done by others.

Judy Evans @JudyEv (367390) • Rockingham, Australia 6 Oct

Fishmomma I did a lot of camping back in the days of Girl Scouts, as was the leader for 1 year and the troop loved to camp. Had several big tents, so everyone fit. Sometimes miss camping, but so many places near me are expensive now.
