Adam, first one I've done. I love the looks of it and I mentioned in a post a week ago or so that I had never done one, so Pearl emailed the link too me. I can speculate though, that it wont work loose. It's looped on and tight as dicks hatband. I think it will hold no problem.
Greg, it was red....really.
Donald, thanks man, but we can all stand to be humbled from time to time. Keeps us hungry.
Thanks to all who have checked in. Really appreciate it.
BTW, the overlays are plum. interestingly, it turns a darker rose color as time goes by. The darker one was done a month ago or 2. It darkens as time goes by into a peachy color. Really like it.
