I am taking an online class where the only time I see the other students in
the class is aset test time and maybe not even then for the times are over 3
days. test takers come whenever they want to, because the time is under a
proctored examinator. I met 5 last night at orientation. The others t
I got it at a very special price. A friend got them from someone in
Houston and then sold me a copy for what she paid, so it was a good deal
less than what the book's currently going for.

My senior year in high school I took a textile arts class. We did
embroidery, appliqué, netting, spinning, natural dyeing, and weaving. It was

also learned the various embroidery stitches and some sewing. I

Sorry to brag on myself, but I can knit AND crochet (if it's very
elaborate I'd rather knit, but I've crocheted shawls, tablecloths,
bedspreads, hats, and a few ponchos!). Also tat. And quilt. And
