    Hi,
    When I click on 'show all' for all the people who've added my project (mandala bracelet) as a favourite it only shows the ones who are already visible (about half of them). Glad of any help with this.

    Cheers

    Hi,

    I have quite a few people who have added one of my projects to their favourites (mandala bracelet). When I click on the 'show all' button it only shows me the ones who are already visible (about half).

    Cheers

    We will definitely be running another competition soon but this time it'll probably be something to do with rocailles/seed beads. Keep your eyes peeled!

    I really loved your boombox plushies too but am not altogether sure what a 'plushie' is. Can anyone explain?
