Vern, this is a tight little number. I have a bit of the seal that I really need to tie with. (Among a long list of other things). This is so nicely done in every regard. Just a really nice use of materials.

AJ's hooks are beautiful to be sure, and I've not found a better tying silk anywhere.

Very fine article Vern.....you did a wonderful job. i met Alec in Oregon when i did the Albany (FFF Oregon Council) show 2 or 3 yrs. ago. He was very kind and generous with his time. Course he always had a pretty good size group around him, who were after the answers to many questions. So i just introduced myself and then listend to him answer all those questions from the others. Of course i told him i love his videos, and that i learned a lot from them and had tyed up all the patterms, and he smiled. That was bout the extent of it.....but he was very nice. ;)
