vmbutton: I'm writing in my own guestbook as due to some problems I'm having with people that's so bored that they have nothing better to do than aggravate someone else.
I think they may want me to REPLY to their unwanted message which I will not lower myself to do so. Every day they leave another comment on my picturetrail but with a different email address with only a couple of silly words that don't make sense. It only shows their stupdity. It gets a little boring. I'm not sure if anyone else with picturetrails are getting any of these or not but be sure and don't REPLY to any of them.

Lynda McNeely: Hi Val! What talent you have!! I am just blown away by your beautiful cards!! I first saw your cards in Burgaw at the Courthouse Cafe and had to immediately buy some!! The only problem was deciding which ones to buy, as they were all beautiful!!!! I can't decide which one are my favorites, but they're all gorgeous and it's obvious you spend a lot of time making these. Do you sell anywhere else or through the mail??? You have a customer for life!!!

Susan Barnett: Fantastic work. Just saw the cd stitching on Carol Duval Show. I am amazed at the beaut of your work. What is tea bag folding? Where do you get your paterns? Do you have a bok of your paterns and instructions? I want to do this kind of work on gourds. I am a member of the American Gourd Society, Tennessee Volunteer Gourd Society, Georgia Gourd Society, and others. Again your work is beautiful. Hugs to you. Susan

john536106: Hi I loved your photos of the iris folding. Me and my son have just started doing them for charity. He is a kidney transplant patient and is unable to work so it is giving him something to do and he feels good that he is helping others so life seems it has a purpose where before he was down. Could you let us know where you get your templates. We seem to be limited to what we can get. We were really took up with your roses, cross, hat, fan. Yours are really lovely and different. Hope to hear from you soon Take care Carol

Nancy Sherman: Your cards are just beautiful! I have just started stitching on cards to make for family and friends, but am having trouble finding the patterns. Is the CI website the only place that you can find them. Do we have any here in the US? I am just so inspired by your spectacular work, that I really want to be able to make wonderful stitched art cards like yours-(call it jealously, I guess). Thanks for sharing your talent with all of us.
From one Grandma to another,

If you read this, please leave me your email address so I may get back to you with the information that you wanted.
This is the only way I figured to get back to you.
Thanks

September 30, 2003 5:00AM
Valerie de Zilwa: Please tell me how to get the pattern's for the stiched cards,they are just beautiful!
Many hours have been spent on the inter-net looking for information on this particular craft.
My Community House had a 4week's course making these fabulous cards and I am hooked!!!
Resources are just about NIL,I have asked every-where,Craft Shops,People who make greeting cards,looked for pattern books all to no avail,I'm greeted with a blank look.
Of course I am willing to pay for the pattern's but you will have to let me know how to pay you as I live in Australia.
Another form of paper work that I enjoy is Paper Pricking.Do you know any thing about this particular Craft?
It's on the same level of difficulty as far as information goes as that of Card Stiching,no one knows any thing about it.
By chance I came across a pattern or template in a Dutch Magazine that I picked up in my Doctor's Surgery-so now of course I'm in-to that as well.
But try to get a book of Templates? impossible!
Again,I must say that I was thrilled to come across your BEAUTIFUL CARDS.
Your's in anticipation(PLEASE HELP)
Valerie.

Rebecca (from familycorner.com): What a beautiful variety! I liked the iris folding one with the coffepot design, the Mother one with the purple pansies, and the 3D cards as just some of my favorites. I have never tried the tea bag folding or iris folding--where did you learn that? The stitching looks great paired WITH the tea bag folding too. What creativity!
January 15, 2003 8:42AM

You obviously are a keen stitcher with some very nice results and the combo of stitching with other cardcrafts is effective providing framing to the card. Also enjoyed your iris folding particularly the coffee pot and the Christmas Lantern and you also have some lovely 3D work.
