  5. 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!

  9. 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.

  17. 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.

  26. 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!

  27. 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!

    ReplyDelete
  28. Wow Deb- Thanks!!! Too many comments like that and I'm gonna think I'm the sh...um...something else!!! :)
