With two months to work on this, people probably forgot about it..  :dontknow:
These are all about fun and trying to do the best you can with what you have..
I think everyone that participated did just that.. I pat everyone on the back that joined in..
Really it's not like a noble prize or anything, just friends of the same fascination of rocks having a little fun together..  :thumbsup:

Good point.  The more folks y'all draw here the better.  I have posted on my Facebook and Google+ pages a couple times.  However the more y'all post to social media, it will help draw more people in.

If you know folks who do knapping, carving, cabbing, hounding, any kind of jewelry making, bring them here!  :headbang:

   Cool idea... I love competition, but you guys are tough. It's so hard to vote for such wonderful pieces. But I casted my vote.

Indeed Amanda! This group is so generous.. I would like to keep this going so much.. We all learn from each other whether we like to admit it or not.. What to do or not to do.. In the end it's really about fun and being part of something bigger than ourselves.. Cheers everyone  :occasion14:
