It's cute I'll give you that but not this time, maybe I'll find a use

Final sew out was fine , the samples are on a piece of sweatshirt
fabric (now don't go all poetic on me and start quoting sheep or cows
or what ever it was when I mentioned fleece! lol) do you know what I
mean by "sweatshirt"?. On the fleece it was good!

One quick question (not about this) is there a group where I might be
able to get help to get a 3D vector image of a nut (as in nut and bolt
) We need one for our van graphics to be done and the people who
designed our logo are taking ages. I have done a search in newsgroups
but all that seemed to come up was porn. Not what I had in mind !
