Thanks! I have a hard time forcing myself to work on
anything when I'm unhappy with a project, and I knew this one would keep me out of the sewing room. It's better to keep it as a practice piece.
I started on a simpler image today, and I'm going about it differently . . . and more light-heartedly. I'm only adding one new element per day, and that will give me plenty of time to stare at it. Also, instead of fusing or sewing pieces down, I'm using a "canvas" of muslin and using 505 spray until I'm certain I like the fabrics I'm trying out. It's not ready for prime time yet, but I'll post a picture of it when I get a little further along.
Thanks again for all your interest and encouragment. I have to admit being surprised at the number of comments I got. Your suggestions have been extremely helpful, and I've learned a lot from reading them.
