Sorry to hear about your camera mishap! But looking forward to seeing your example once your new camera arrives. Yours sounds a lot like the one in the ethnography museum (although I think yours is fancier as I don't recall the museum's being embroidered). I stopped by there today hoping to take a picture for this thread, but it's apparently closed on Monday. I'm heading there next week with my neighbor, though, so I'll take some pictures then.
