9/11 Memorial -- World Peace Ribbon Project
We arranged to donate the World Peace Ribbon to the International Day of Peace
Vigil (www.idpvigil.com). One of the organizers, who works for the UN, took the time to phone me to let me know that the project had touched her heart. As she looked at the segments, some of them time-intensive "works of art", she cried. In fact, she was so impressed by the Ribbon that she asked permission to display it at other organizations, including Red Cross and 9/11 support groups, to show how much people around the world cared. Photos of the finished ribbon, which was over 100 feet long, are on www.craft-searcher.com Three cheers to Nathalie for having this wonderful idea! -- Finished 7/4/03 -- Army Wife WIP: Angel of Autumn, Calif Sampler, Holiday Snowglobe, Guide the Hands (2d one) Paralegal - Writer - Editor - Researcher http://hometown.aol.com/kmc528/KMC.html |

Uhhhh, there's no pictures there . . . just a bunch of links having
nothing whatsoever to do with "crafts". I even did a search for "ribbon" and "9/11 ribbon". Got a better URL?

writes: Uhhhh, there's no pictures there . The Day of Peace Vigil hasn't taken place yet. Got to have an event before you can have photos. I should have been paying closer attention to the other URL, a few months ago it was changed to www.craft-searcher.NET due to a registration snafu and we're still getting the hang of remembering the new version.

"Joan Erickson" wrote in message ... "Photos of the finished ribbon, which was over 100 feet long, are on www.craft-searcher.com" (of which you really meant www.craft-searcher.net ). I don't seem to find a picture of the ribbon there, either. Or on Natalie's website (upon brief browsing). So, *is* there a picture of this 100' ribbon somewhere??? Enquiring minds want to know! There is now, Joan... ;-) http://www.craft-searcher.net/worldpeaceribbon I just hope that Karen washing line did not collapse... --- This email has been certified to be free from viruses.

The images are WAY too large. I'd be sittin' here another half hour
waiting for them. For others with DSL, that might be different. Dianne Craft-Searcher wrote: "Karen C - California" wrote in message ... The Day of Peace Vigil hasn't taken place yet.

They are pretty slow on cable, too. I understand that this
was a first cut at showing some pictures, but several 200 KB JPG files don't belong on a front page. Have small filesize thumbnails that link to the big pictures. Maybe have one larger view but smaller filesize one for impact. It doesn't look like any of the overall pictures will do it justice unless it's laid out in rows somehow. How do you show something that big? -- Beth Katz Dianne Lewandowski wrote: The images are WAY too large. I'd be sittin' here another half hour waiting for them.
