    People really appreciate hand made items these days. When I was young almost everything seemed to be hand made, so it was common and we took it for granted. Now items made by a real person are treasures. I notice folks who do handwork bringing their projects to work on as they wait for appointments and always engage them in conversation. I'm not handy in this way, but I appreciate thos who are!
