G, I think it looks great!! You are right -- 36 lights/36 darks are needed! What was I thinking? When you think mini, you always think fewer!! haha. I think if you were a tad darker on your dark blades, they would've stood out better!! You do need to have good contrast on this pattern as it's only 2 pieces to a section so you want one to dominate the other; otherwise, it gets lost. :cry: :roll: It still looks nice and springy! WTG, G!! :D :D
