thanks....i do have to admit that when i started the project i thought 'well, it has to be just as easy to make 4 as one' so off i went on the journey, but to tell the truth i got almost nothing else done last year, it was time consuming.......but it was a great accomplishment for me....and now, i think i am really better at satin stitching (LOL!!)....thanks for for your support....gina
