It borders it but looks like part of the whole, too. And perfectly echos what is going on in the main part. (And for the "borderline genius" comment? Hilarious and right on!!!)<BR/><BR/>DianeDiane Perinhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07447372718275554860noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3541885083874632647.post-39680482625220737272008-10-24T14:19:00.000-07:002008-10-24T14:19:00.000-07:00Of fer cryin' out loud.

It is not overdone, it is just, should I use the word "perfect"?<BR/><BR/>Now our only regrets is that mine has been framed before I saw yours.<BR/><BR/>I will keep all your wonderful ideas for other projects.<BR/><BR/>You are making us all think outside the box, which is great. I certainly need to do more of that myself :-)<BR/><BR/>Thanks a lot for inspiring us all to do just that.<BR/><BR/>Pierrette =^..^=Love to Stitch 99https://www.blogger.com/profile/08717611751588945815noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3541885083874632647.post-59768080516721089732008-10-24T10:35:00.000-07:002008-10-24T10:35:00.000-07:00Oh my!

I will of course remove the photo if you prefer. I normally post and then ask permission so that my victims (uh, my subjects) can truthfully say they didn't pay me to promote them--it happened out of the blue.<BR/><BR/>Hope you don't mind.
