I guess you DO live fairly near to Lyme Regis!!!!!! I should have looked farther along in the "Pictures" section. Have you read Tracy Chevalier's book?
I love your art quilts!

Thank you so much to everyone. You fairly make me :oops: with your praise!

I had heard of Tracy Chevalier due to the Girl with a Pearl Earring and have just googled and discovered she lives here in the UK and also has a book Remarkable Creatures (I guess that's the one you mean) set on 'my' coast! I'll get it out of the library asap! Thanks for the heads up. :-D

i love to see the various methods that you try. this one is lovely as usual.

p.s. great photo by hans.

EDIT: is that the sun shining in england?

k3n 01-12-2011 08:19 AM

Thank you - yes Hans (DH) is quite the photographer! I've got zillions saved on my computer to work from! And yes that IS the sun - and this was taken in December! So there. :mrgreen: :lol:

Thank you. The photo for my next one is already selected, cropped and printed out. It will be a wide and thin seascape, also taken at Lyme. Got a few tops to quilt first though...
