It is a beautiful piece of work, I think that someone posted it right after the contest. This is the first time that a textile piece won, it is open to all sorts of art forms.

I saw the photo of it when it won. It is a wonderful piece of art.

There was one sold in Melbourne for about the same price - so people should not under-estimate the value of fibre art.

Gorgeous! Like looking at the Lake Superior up here in the UP of Michigan

Gotta love lake Michigan! and Superior, Huron, Erie, Ontario they are all beautiful in their own right.

Ann entered that quilt in "Art Prize," a huge "all over the town museum of art that lasts a couple of weeks every fall in Grand Rapids, MI. I live about an hr away and spent an entire day there and only saw about 1/4 of the entries! It's huge and just a wonderful way for all of us to enjoy art! Once I saw her piece I knew I was going to vote for that for the peoples choice. It is an incredible work...no picture can do it justice. And Ann Loveless is a very nice person who took the time to talk and answer questions for everyone came to see her piece.

Inspiring!
My pieces are getting bigger but I can't imagine working on a canvas 4'x5'. My new role model.

It is beautiful but someone has a lot of money to pay that.

Our guild was lucky to have her as a speaker and to get two workshops. She is a wonderful speaker with great slides and her techniques are easy and creative. I would pay most anything to get her to come again.

Saw it in person and the pictures can't do it justice. Simply magnificent!
