A finished quilt. Imagine that!

I sewed the worms' eyes on tonight and the last button on the flower. Trimmed all the loose threads and had a photo shoot. This was started months ago as a sample for my booth showing off my hand dyes/ Oh! It feels good to get it done! Tomorrow I attack the binding on another one, label them both and give them a bath.

From 'placemat' to art!

 I finally am getting around to transforming my Four Seasons from 'placemats' (a gentleman customer wanted to know if that is what they were) into wall art. Summer Blues got willow branches tied with yellow grosgrain ribbons and stretched with 'spider webs' to join it to the frame (invisible thread artfully placed). Sold.
 Winter Silence got willow branches and snow ball wire to simulate falling snow. The picture tells me I may have gone overboard with the snow... I can fix that! I will add Fall and Spring as soon as they are finished, which is almost! Available for sale.
