    Your quilt is beautiful. I love the colors and the movement in it. You could almost think those are birds or angels.

    WOW, WOW, WOW!!! Everything about it is gorgeous. The colors, the pattern and the fact that every inch is hand done! Thanks so much for sharing such a wonderful piece of art with us.
