I have yours ready to quilt and will do that this week so it should be ready to mail early next week. Have just enjoyed 4 delightful days at our fishing shack, snug by the woodfire as it was super cold outside. Got plenty of sewing done though, now back to reality and real work

face, no face, whatever! i came home from grocery shopping and the cat was sound asleep on the painting! lol. i do not want to do it again, so i will pull out the sticky roll and pray. or pray, and then get out the sticky roll. i do see some tweaking i will do- shape her leg a little and shorten the closest foot. then i'll sandwich it, bits of quilting, and done. i think the reason you can sort of see her face, those of you who can, is because i painted the eye and hated it so painted over it. i also didn't like her nose, and that's why it isn't there! i used acrylics and stain pens. i wanted texture to the tube and the pen gave me just the look i wanted. the umbrella will be a separate piece, 3d and added on.
i am rolling on the floor laughing--- i gave the poor girl two right feet ! look closely!

Krystyna - humorous quilts would be a fun category some month eh?
DebbyG your little brown church quilt is wonderful - it reminds me of a brown transferware plate we had that had a church in the middle.
Nancia, thanks for the info on how you painted your lady!
