You know what that is...the center is the door to Quilt Heaven, and, lol, that's where I wanna go...eventually, lol. Right now, just a look once in a while...does make you dizzy, I couldn't ever make something like that. I'd get sick, doing the planning! Did it win? first place for that part? :D

I printed this picture to send to my uncle Larry. He used to have his own stained glass window business, and we talked at length one time about quilts.
He described doing a quilt so very much like this, but was hard to figure out exactly how you would get the illusion of depth. He will be thrilled to see this.
He also went to horticultural school and has an absolutely amazing garden. He loves the visual stuff. He can walk me through his garden, pointing out each and every different kind of plant and flower, by it's usual, and scientific name, etc. and would be sure, I didn't miss noticing all the individual aspects of beauty from an artists perspective. He also did oil paintings, as do all that side of family. I should have inherited more from them. Grandma says you become aware of your talents as you develop them. Well, I haven't developed that much patience! lol!~
He is going to love this. Thanks so much for sharing with us :D
