Thank you very much! This is my favorite piece of dyed fabric. I still need to do some machine stitching and some hand embroidery.

LOVE this little art piece. Hope it was satisfying to do and it's great to look at and think about

your art piece is terrific. Great job. I particularly like the color combination.

Oksewglad, is that an original poem? I really like the imagery.

Thanks for the kind words. No nancia, it's a poem by Sara Teasdale--mid 20th century poet. I thought it fit the quilt. I do write haiku and have a couple of ideas for mini's with a couple of those.

here's the thing-- i am so far behind i think i'm in the next race! i have a couple ideas, and lots of dye, etc to play with so soon i will be really experimenting. for the moment i have another quilt to bind, blocks for a swap, and a dq for whenever! i'm so confused!!

I've been busy "playing" getting ready for the county fair here...The first one on this thread is my "Art Quilt" entry...(I found out last nigh and think I'm still in shock this morning.) http://www.quiltingboard.com/picture...o-t199141.html Anyway, after I get it back next week, I'll take some detailed pictures of the quilting, beading, crystals, yarn, etc. to share the techniques with you all here!
