I'd read/heard at the time that the development wasn't a huge factor in Harvey smashing Houston. Apart from people being where the flooding happened, of course.

ps Ok, I'll move to Nebraska... so long as everyone there moves out first.
just a foil for me today, thanks

If it's good enough for Warren Buffett and gonzo, it's good enough for me.

Yah, but... Buffet lives in a 30,000 square mile underground world with dinosaurs and a private sun. He don't see no 'huskers.

I'm very anti-peeved that my first try at making this wallet, (or card holder), and that it was 'good enough' to give as a bday gift. Nothing worse than admitting failure when so much work/time has been put into something.

I tried something new. I liked the image, (image in the background), and selected some elements to use as a transfer onto fabric - I waxed the fabric too. It's far from perfect, but hope to get better at 'em to give as gifts in the future.

Is it rfid blocking?

No, but it could be and is definitely something I'm going to include in the future. RFID fabric is expensive...one of these days I'll pick some up. For now, I'm learning new things and using materials that I have on-hand...moving soon and gotta' get rid of some stuff.

Even if I had some RFID fabric I wouldn't have used it on this one; since it was my first time making one. If I screwed-up it would have been wasted.

Thanks! Me too. I love Egyptian themed art... or, anything related to archaeology or ancient relics.
