Bob's and Charmayne's dark purple and yellow line

 
We have ducks, 6-legged ball guys, elephants, black and yellow coordinated laundry, etc. Never enough. This is our dark purple and fluorescent yellow line. It came about in 2002. Still flying! Bob came home from work one day and told me he had an idea for a new line of laundry using just one template.  We tried the "original spine tube" and it worked. Soon we had 5 and added a Rolands' caterpillar and another Zwirbel to round out this line. In 2005 a geometric star was added as it was a bit small for the rest of the geometrics.
Some photos have larger pictures "under" them. Not all.

The Dragon spine was a multi-attempt piece. To the left is version one. It just did not work for us visually. We did not think the happy round head went well with spikes. To the right is a close-up of the final Dragon spine head.
