I showed it to my wife and she said, Hmm. Coffee table? That would be dramatic, to say the least, and if you used heavy plate for the top, you could pull it off. I might give one a try in-between everything else that seems to be piling up on my plate.

    Come on Uncle John, we know that you can do it. What can't you do? Will look forward to pictures when it's finished, just don't forget to continue to quilt. I bet there are a lot of ideas going around in your head. Sew little time, sew much to do. BrendaK
