    i would never have attempted this if not for my friend's special circumstances.
    it was a decision made by my heart. my brain was not allowed any input. LOL
    she got a very deep "friends and family discount", but debbie and i did get paid.

    the first top took the longest because that was the prototype.
    by the time i had that one done, i had a system figured out.
    once i eliminated the need to think carefully, i could go full throttle.

    each top took about a day and a half.
    truth be told, i could have done a top a day if i didn't take so many long breaks to surf the board and play computer games. i was free to shut out the rest of the world, so i can't estimate how long it would have taken for somebody with kids, spouse, or other time gobbling obligations to attend to.

    I don't go into U-tube video because I have an older computer still running XL. I will have to look into this pattern maybe having my best friend get the instructions for me. Great job Patrice !!
