Next in line from our
wonderful day held at our
"Other Forms of Art"
showing at North Border
Estates in December is Mary
Wieler. Mary had a very
colorful table filled with
hand made articles, such
as, embroidery, cross stitch,
crochet and plastic canvas.
Mary's Praying Hands was
very noteworthy. Because of
a cold Mary did not spend the
afternoon visiting with the
many people who attended
the show. She was missed by
all.
Thanks Mary for
participating in the show.
Your table was a very
beaUtiful addition.
We, at the Brush Bunch,
are finalizing our plans
for our art show "Dakota
Country" on May 1st and
2nd. Watch for our posters
and ads. See you there.
