Koriana, Wow. Love your sunset! That is going to be great. And batiks are perfect for it. And also, thanks for the sketch because I wanted to put a little island in my water and couldn't figure out quite how. I've never been to the Ozarks, darn. Somehow I thought I would be traveling more in these 'golden years' but it hasn't worked out. Part of the problem is having pets. Can't live without them, can't travel with them. : )
Brat, Sorry, I have no ideas on that water's edge thing. It's such an important part of the beach scene, just sitting and watching the waves come in, inching their way up the sand. I just got my book yesterday (the one you have) and leafed through it briefly. I'm definitely thinking about the next one. Maybe it will be the years we spent in Fairbanks, Alaska. With no paper piecing!
So here's the heron that is in the water. I'm going to try to blend the water strips on each side. A curve!
