This was the third book and fourth project completed by Indigo publishing for me.

They will work at your speed, fast or slow, tolerate your faults, and make a masterpiece from pieces. Tony Tirri
I just wish I could have seen more. I’m thinking a special project over that I can look back on and be very proud of. A few antique collectors will be excited!!!!
