Well he is saint enough to put up with the expense, the time my hobby takes up and enough interest to ask what I have made today, I really can't expect him to be interested enough to read my ramblings too!

I didn't notice when I took the photograph the reflection of the mirror on the silk, pretty chuffed though!
