[Magdalen] Speaking of mishaps...

[Lynn Ronkainen]

Grace, instead of clear heavy plastic, use instead the vinyl with 
'felt'-like backing, 'felt' side 'up. It can be usually purchased at JoAnnes 
or ordered online.  This slows and contains the spills most effectively.

Lynn, in the biz of 'dressing altars', sort of.

single bit of talent left and could say, "I used everything You gave me."
