After attending her workshop and getting some tips, I finally started putting my project together. I will probably never again do anything so detailed - every little shape is a piece fused down and most of them are top stitched. My favorite part of the process was using my free motion foot - I LOVED making the road look like cobble stones. Then I had to do the clouds, the trees, the houses, you get the picture!
WOW, WOW, WOW!!! You are amazing. I love this, you may have just inspired me. Never thought I'd be interested in artsie quilts, but now......
