Trust me, I'll make one! Hey, who called me and made me laugh and entertained me till I almost fell out of bed (wouldn't that have been bad?!) when I broke my stupid ankle? And on top of that, you make me a wonderful gift like this so I will always have Suede with me? Let's rethink who the wonderful friend is here.

True but who has had to put up with me calling you all the time on a whim since? Poor Tom and you. LOL


Okay here is the sketch of the 'idea'

I am gonna stretch him over a hoop (metal to handle the weight of him) and probably decoratively, metal wire wrapping it (an extra precaution because of his weight). Seven knots (7 is an important number to my people) with long fringe dangling from the knot...glass crow beads in the colors of your livingroom (burgundy and hunter green) mixed through the fringe with the smaller and fluffy feathers you sent. Those two reallly long Suede feathers wrapped in leather or beadwork and attached to the top.

I thought rather than fringing the entire thing and giving you tons of junk to worry about dust collecting on, I would do the 7 knots. I am still pondering over covering the backside with fur or another piece of deerhide, but I want it covered to protect the stitches.

So...what do ya think?

That truly does shine. To paraphrase Bill Tyler from Mountain Men. It is something beyond price. Absolutely beautiful work.
