    Wow - very impressive! Can't wait to see the 'real deal' if this is just a practice!

    He will post pics of the real deal when done, he says "if he doesn't die of old age first!" lol

    thanks for the feedback. i declined to make a satin quilt for someone once as i'd heard that the holes do not disappear... and i'm definitely not good enough to avoid ripping

    Kevin always does such gorgeous work. I love the pebbles to frame different sections.
