How great is that??? love it. Loving the idea too! although he doesn't have rv. just would be a sofa throw I guess or over chair in bedroom or something like that. I'm not set on a quilt or shadowbox. They seem extremely hard to put together using bulky items. I guess it could be done but I've never tried anything like that. Better with sewing machine, needle and thread! Keep those ideas coming. Thanks for these two!
