    Wow you have done a wonderful job as for me (well I'm still into rectangles and squares) but if i wasn't I think I would have thrown it right out the window. lol Can't wait to see it finished.

    Beautiful! Great use of colors, and I, too, am interested in seeing it put together.

    A "caned seat" on a kitchen chair is woven reed, looking much like your block, only on a much finer scale. I love the name of it, when you said what it was, I instantly thought of the old caned seats. We don't see them much any more.

    Very very nice. I can see that is must be hard to do and kudos to you for doing it so well. Hope she really appreciates all your hard work. You did great.

    LOLOL, OMG, you know what? I knew that!
    I was watching a program a while ago and they explained just that, and in my head I went "Oh, so THAT's why that pattern is called that"... I guess I just forgot that I knew, lol!
