    She should be able to, she could check for sure. I know at the shows in my area you can as long as there is a lable & hanging sleeve, that could be a temperary one.

    keep going, Colleen ~ I'll be posting up-close-and-personal pics of my butterflies soon! the crewel work really made the butterflies special! It was just a "what could I add" moment that inspired me, figured I'd try it :)

    Found your post and I am sure I have something you can use. Will check tomorrow and get back with you. I have to dig the box out from under all my fabric! :-)

    for all those who helped me with hankies ~ I already have the extra ones for the PIF chemo quilt set aside, matched up and pressed, so as soon as I'm back from the wedding, I'll be creating that top :)
