         I was already working with Edwin about some for his museum so I
think I would be willling to co-ordinate.  One of my co-workers is a
graphics artist and does layout and design so could help with that.  I have
friends as well and I have figured out a cheap method of printing that
could be used.  I think that's why I was thinking of it.
         Darcy - your inkle loom info would be a great place to start.

         Gwenneth - would you be willing to contribute some articles and such?

         Cool, that's three of us then.

         Currently I tossed the idea out to see if it sounded of interest
and if so a feasible and good way of doing it.  Or maybe we could develop
some (several) for different groups.....

         I figure if there's interest we'll start small and work up. (grin).
