This is just a quick tip....mostly for those starting out ...it is good to take a photos of your work...sometimes you may sell the piece or you may give it as a gift ... it is great to have it documented .....this is the best way to build on your own work and get ideas for future projects...and see yourself grow.

Hi Mari, I've asked a few questions but no response - am I posting in the wrong area? I'm a beginner with lots of questions, and happy to have found this talented group, but it would be great if someone would respond! :)
