My comment isn't really about this pattern specifically, it's a summary about all the patterns available on today's email. In a word...AWESOME!!! Such a great collection of pattern links on one page, the best one I have received by far! Usually on the daily email page, there are a few patterns I am not at all interested in, or just don't like. Today, I LOVED EVERY ONE!!! I can't wait to make them all!!!
