I'll let Debbie tell the story in her own words:
"I have another bingo square completed."
"I made a mini with a 12 year old neighbour every Tuesday
afternoon over the past several weeks. Mayah did a great job completing this
Bathroom with mirror lights. The bathroom fixtures were examples of salesman
samples that a neighbour had given to her Great-grandmother when she was a
small child in Toronto, almost a hundred years ago. The Great-grandmother is 94
and in poor health. We have been racing to get this scene finished so she can
see pictures of it. Mayah's grandmother, Lynn, is a friend of mine and she is
going to Toronto in two weeks."
"Soon after we moved to the valley, Lynn gave me these
bathroom fixtures because she knew I did minis and she didn't know what she was
going to do with them. But then I did a four week class doing a small vignette at
our local community Center for kids 8-12 and Mayah came with Lynn.
Mayah loved the miniatures. So I had promised to help
her make some thing with the bathroom set.
It got underway this past January."
"Mayah did it all. She was very determined and focused.
She learned to plumb, to do electrical work. She measured, and painted, and
glued. The result is a great little scene of which she is very
proud.
We already have made plans to do another scene.

What a wonderful project, Debbie. And congratulations, Mayah. You did a fantastic job! Very well done, indeed. Your great-grandmother must be very proud of you, as are all of us!
