Thanks so much for all the compliments!I have never been afraid of color! I used the picture on the front of "French braid obsession" by Jane Hardy Miller, and just kind of started adding what I had! It is a fabulous book and I cant wait to try some of the other patterns in it, but have so much on my want to do list now that it may be a long while! I am from Dewey ok, up in the northeast corner close to the Kansas border. Love it here!
