Thanks for the compliment and I do wish that I was in the same class as
Robin and Tamara!!! I was also thinking about the decline in the interest

The book itself it not available for free download, at least I would be
very surprised if so. The author is careful to point out copyright, and use

I've just finished my first rosa libre flower and it is so cute. I love the way
it ruffles and sort of ripples. Now I'm going to practice a leaf and then work

What the heck is Rosa Libre?
