Thank you guys, enjoyed seeing your results and hearing how people enjoy trying it.
Just an aside, Tom the Troll, a couple of things that will help....
Your photo is way too big for the forum, might want to save a smaller version for the forum :-)
When you look at the negative spaces behind the weaves you will see the doubling of the shadows..... as mentioned in the last steps you need to elminate the doubling by selecting the shape deleting before you flatten your image.
