Hey Bob....  How long did you say you have been designing?  All of your patterns look simply put Beautiful.  This one looks Great and also the Cutting.  Sure would LOVE to learn how to design.  Didn't you say you were using Gimp and Inkscape a little?  Gots both now need to find material to teach.  Anyway....  Danny  :+}
