I imagine they're a lot more challenging to space the letter (I remember taking a graphic design class for kids in grade school, and how they taught us how to space a perfect title, as different letters took up different amounts of space). <br /><br />I have three of Kerry's pieces I lucked into purchasing -- they're awesome, aren't they? Mine are all in the blue/aqua family but I'm sure you know how much I love the colors in yours!Lori Andersonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12297328109318290291noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-144530270551564552.post-86087871855591096902012-02-18T08:27:08.230-06:002012-02-18T08:27:08.230-06:00Exquisite!

Those beads look like they took a lot of meticulous work, and to have made an entire sonnet with them just floors me. I love that you kept with the darker side of love rather than the bright red. <br /><br />I must confess I'm not a fan of Valentine's Day for several reasons. 'Just give me chocolate' is my thinking on the subject.Alicehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07545020113679133121noreply@blogger.com
