Hope your Mom gets better. I will pray for her recovery and your patience and support.

Mary,
I enjoyed doing this lesson. It is more challenging than one thinks. I modified the design after my favorite coffee mug, it holds over half a liter! I also inscribed on the cup the words, Jesus fills my cup. Thanks for your teaching. John Cook
Hi John,
That’s a great inscription! Yes, this is quite a challenging project with some serious “tricks”. But it is fun!
