The photographs should reach a wide audience, and hopefully will raise awareness in the general public.Barbara Chttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09068430978341114058noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-412097977899482006.post-45833778676974035992011-09-28T22:27:41.319-07:002011-09-28T22:27:41.319-07:00I never thought of doing that with bobbins.
