Thanks Stoner ! Your creations are an inspiration kk really appreciate the comment! whenever I'm out rock hounding I think of you, Ted! gr- does that orbicular jasper look familiar on the rock'n heart? I found it in the black tray outside after you left I don't recall ever seeing it before Diane- Thanks! I consider that little heart to be one of my finest in the beginning of this new season I'm going to master these hearts not sure why its taken me so long? Ha ha but his season- the rock'n heart is going to be nailed or arrowE or something like that... Thanks agrin! Ed

Uh... perhaps it's because you work outside and where you live several months of the year are a blast furnace out there? Not because of you, Ed. You are like a fine wine, or Brandy or Scotch... only getting better with time... Jo

What a pretty little heart, Ed! I really like the cut of your lace cab, not to mention your local stone has a mighty fine look to it, too!

Thanks Jo- Like to think of me-self as a fine hearty wine getting better all the time Thanks Donnie- Free form cabs are going to be another challenge- but hearts are starting to shape up fine This is the back of the heart the stone had a big gouge in it but rock'n hearts can be rough as general rule ha ha maybe the the penny give a indication of size? hey a penny heart! nice moniker Ed
