Well said, Kinny. It's got that glow-y blue that I love and that only you can do, Dawn. It's beautiful.

It's going to take a very special lamp to go with that lampshade, do you have something in mind?

Dawn, I got technical sewing questions for you. 1) At the end of a seam do you backstitch, tie the ends off, or both? 2) Do you sew over pins and risk breaking a needle or do you remove them as you go? (I broke a needle tonite for the first time in years )
