    Thank you Jennibellie and Robin! I've been sewing since I was 14 and I'm still sloppy but it gets the job done. :)I simply pick up the next piece of fabric - that comes close to working - off the top of my bin and get lucky!

    Thanks Ann! I drew the monkey while looking at some of Sophia's books! Wish I could come up with stuff like that on my own! Glad you like it! :)

    FAntastic! I love them. And my favourite colour too. I like the way it comes out of the frame, I love the curvy plants at the bottom and the foliage on the tree is a wild and wonderful mass of line and texture.

    Aaaah... Now I get it! He is fantastic. I absolutely love it. I like the way you use the patterns in the fabric. I had to look at the plants at the bottom a couple times to understand what you had done. You take the fabric patterns and them into something completely different and they become part of the quilt. In most quilts, the fabric pattern is the quilt. Your quilts look past the pattern and make it something more. Really impressive.

    Hi Laurie! Thank you so much for the lovely compliment. I've always wanted to be a painter but mostly I just make a mess - unless painting fabric! :)

    Thank you hellopalz! I love the whole process...but then again...I love the way you sketch and can't or don't - or maybe won't try it!

    Thank you Natasha May! Your goddesses amaze me. It's easy to cut fabric and lay it down with thread...but to come up with beautiful, expressive faces and figures and surroundings the way YOU do is something else!
