How interesting Thank you. I look forward to trying this. I always have loved plaid.

I love the tutorial however I’m not doing something right as I can’t get it to work. I would like to send you a couple of screen shot. I don’t have your email though. I tried it with your photo and twice with one of mine. Neither worked.
