All the faves in one picture!

Norm, what's the blue material behind the cheek feather on the 'Leftover'?

Carl, Ron, and Charlie; that ain't bad advertising right there! I don't know Charlie Craven, though I've watched a lot of his videos. We, here in the forum, are beyond blessed to count Carl and Ron among our betters (my betters anyway). Those capes look amazing; I would kill for either one of them.

Good; hopefully they can continue to carry on. Alan (BrkTrt) was a big fan of YLI silks and sent a few spools to me to try. As much as I like precedent and tradition (Pearsall's), I am now a big fan of YLI silks.
