    That's an bsolutely beautiful piece of wearable art you made Gail. It is truly a one-of-a-kind pendant. You and your daughter are so very talented and such a joy to watch. I've only recently [in the past few weeks] discovered your lovely videos and became a subscriber on the spot. It was the video where you're with the little mudlark-in-training Cecilia, and her mother searching for dragon eggs and sea glass. I live across the pond in North Carolina, one of the original 13 Colonies, and it's a dream of mine to one day visit England, Scotland and Ireland. It's got such lovely scenery and so much history. I recently had a DNA test and it showed that I'm about 56% British heritage, with a healthy 26% Irish, plus a respectable bit of Swiss and German, plus a smidgen of Italian, Spanish or Portuguese and Ashkenazi Jewish. The Swiss and German aren't surprising to me since my hometown, New Bern, NC is where a lot of Swiss and German Palatines settled in the New World. That's how New Bern got its name; after Bern, Switzerland. Well, enoungh of my ramblings on, take care and keep the mudlarking adventures coming! Enjoy your time and memories with each other.
