ReplyDeleteYou are right your second one is looking really good.
I have changed my header,I hope you can read it now.
ps, turn on your 'word varification and you won't get SPAM comments like that last one.
If you are interested in a great yahoo group for newbie CQers give me a bell.
i think the problem with the first block is that some of the piecing is very busy, like the checkerboard part, and the colors blend together.
ReplyDeleteyour work is stunning though.
