Hans,
Did you have to tie with insulated tools? This thing is electric! It looks sooo cool!
On to the next pattern that you have posted today! Wow!

Hans, Howdy;

Going through a bit of a Glister period are ya ???

Nothing wrong in that the 2 you've posted using the material
are, as usual, outstanding.

Thank you kindly. This blending was indeed one of the objectives. Another one, before that, was to deliver an effective pattern 8-)
