I just finished my 1st pattern, it has taken me 2 days to finish, I want to make sure it is right before I start cutting it, because it is a gift for my son and his wife. Please offer any suggestions to better it. Travis, just wanted to say thanks, I Just took your classes on gimp, and I must say I did not know what image manipulation software was until I joined the village 3 days ago, You are the man! Look forward to learning much more from everyone in the village, It's nice to have a place for a new scroller to go and learn, again thanks to every one in the village. Harvey
