Wow this is a great quilt. I love her fabric choices, those batik wings look just like I would imagine dragon wings to look. Is there any way you could post some close up shot of your quilting?

Also I truly appreciate your words of encouragement regarding long arm quilting.

Thanks for all of your nice comments - it was truly a treat to work on this one! I know some of you have requested close ups of the quilting and unfortunately I don't have any that truly shows the custom work....I used 5 thread colors but the most fun was the orange and yellow varigated that I used on his flame and outside the flame to give it a glow/smoke effect. I may get a chance to take a few more pictures and if so I will post them later.

Again .... thanks for all the support!
