Wherever the standard of freedom and Independence has been or shall be unfurled, there will her heart, her benedictions and her prayers be.

But she goes not abroad, in search of monsters to destroy.

She is the well-wisher to the freedom and independence of all.

She is the champion and vindicator only of her own.

I've looked at that pattern before. Never tried it because it looked like too many steps. How long did it take to crank out that dozen?

Thats funny Mike , when I sit at the vise which is just about every day , I measure my time in cups of coffee . I like to tie flies and drink lots of coffee in the winter so I can fish the other 11 1/2 months out of the year ;D                   
I just don't care!
