Wow! What I lesson! I enjoyed learning two new tangles and the Pile Up technique. I find that I am enjoying these more focused tangles and heavily detailed lessons. I enjoyed learning about using “treasure “ in the Kensington fan lesson and was happy to use that here. More of these detailed lessons please.
