Nice blocks. How could he not like it. The backing fabric is wonderful. And as always your blocks are wonderful.

Not really a musician, but he's learning.
For a really long time he kept asking to borrow one of my guitars, and I either kept forgetting or didn't really want to lend one of my good ones, so I bought him his own last year for his birthday. He's been learning since then and he's gotten really good on his own. It's not exactly an easy instrument to learn, either, trust me. I only wish I had started as a kid.
