I'm cooling my heels and waiting for the second edition of the book to come out. I may experiment with some odd fabric in the meantime but I'll wait till I've digested Barb's book before I get too ambitious.

I was going to say that there are several disciplines in which there's one volume that is referred to as "The Book"...for classical guitar builders there's the Irving Sloane book, for photographers there's the Ansel Adams trio of books (Camera, Film, Print) and for the kilties it's the Barb Book. Must be nice to be the author of a volume that becomes a "standard'.
