I could (and would) stare at it for hours. That's hilarious about the bobbin thread. Just before I read that I wondered how in the world you keep going over areas without breaking thread! Is it the thread, I wonder or the needle...or both?

I'm amazed at how you managed to make them with the two different threads (am I right about the number of colors you used?).
