We will miss you says Robyn W

Solo performance by Rita

Rita has built up her skills on the frame and stippled her very large queen bed quit on her own.  She did a great job and is very pleased with the results.

Rita is seen here using the Stitch Regulator made possible by a grant from Mansfield Shire Community Matching Fund.

Her smile says it all.
