I love this course! Unfortunately I couldn't do it live stream to make some questions, but I loved it as well. Janet, you are such a nice person and I loooove your dutch accent so much, maybe because I am German and love my neighbors. So, I hope to finish my chair hopefully as beautiful as you did (didn`t even began) and send you an email with the result in the end.
