[bobman]

That's great bobman. I really like the "softy" expression on your dog's face - reminds me of ours before she died. Lovely work - more and more striking examples of intarsia get posted on here and I really must have a go myself. (My list of roundtoits gets ever longer!).

Thanks for posting.
