Thanks to all for the thoughts and prayers for my folks, I appreciate them very much.
Sandy, the bracelets are engraved flat and then formed.
Tim: The texture shall forevermore be known as "burlap"!!
Sam, thanks for the humor!!

Wow, great work. I too like the "burlap" look.
Adding you to the prayer list.

 

[Weldon47]

Thanks to all for the thoughts and prayers. It has been a tough time. My mom passed away on January the 4th. She struggled with Alzheimer's disease for a number of years. In the last month she suffered a fall that sort of signaled the end for her. Her passing was peaceful and I consider it to be a blessing when I think about her condition in the last few weeks.
Again, thank you to each of my friends and acquaintances here at the Cafe. It means a lot to have folks the world over thinking about and praying for a situation like this. Please also remember my dad as he and my mom were married for over 66 years!

Sincerely,

Weldon

To answer another question that was asked earlier in this thread:
1.I believe there was a class at GRS last year on bracelet making, not sure if they are doing it again this year.
2. At some point if there was enough interest and the schedule could work I might entertain the thought of giving a class (though it might be a little redundant and anti-climatic considering the instructors on the class mentioned above!)
