Crqltr 03-10-2013 08:37 AM

I agree...can't you bind it so it could be used on either side?? I like the light side!

Lori S 03-10-2013 08:49 AM

It' s beautiful!

Krystyna 03-10-2013 08:57 AM

You're right! It IS prettier than the front -- although the front is nice, this is ... well, WOW!

maryb119 03-10-2013 09:00 AM

Amazing design!!!!

Bluebell 03-10-2013 09:14 AM

Oh My! I thought the front was stunning. The back is totally amazing! So incredible. Love your work.

This is just gorgeous! I would not cover it- it is just too beautiful to "ruin' with a backing.... unless you could somehow hand quilt it so no stitches showed through to the front taking away the beauty of the horse. This is unreal!

mcdaniel023 03-10-2013 04:21 PM

That is amazing...front and back.

snownannie 03-10-2013 05:43 PM

justflyingin 03-10-2013 09:45 PM

What does the front look like? The back is gorgeous!

stitchinwitch 03-11-2013 03:05 AM

do NOT cover it up - it is simply equisite(sp)

twinkie 03-11-2013 03:18 AM

I agree. Don't cover this up. It is beautiful.

JaniceP 03-11-2013 03:20 AM

Wow! The back is beautiful. Maybe if you get tired of the front, you can turn it over after some time and enjoy it as new again!

Retiredandquilting 03-11-2013 03:30 AM

WOW! Extraordinary work.

BeverlyH 03-11-2013 03:35 AM

This is truly a "Wow"! Love it!

2manyhobbies 03-11-2013 03:56 AM

Oh my, how gorgeous! If I could do work like that, I'd invent a 'spinning thing' so the quilt could always be seen on both sides :-)

Dragonomine 03-11-2013 04:13 AM

Absolutely beautiful! I'd never be able to do something like that.

SandySews 03-11-2013 05:24 AM

I would never cover this up. It's beautiful and your artistic ability should be shared.

lauriequilts 03-11-2013 05:49 AM

That is beautiful. I wouldn't cover anything up. You have a wonderful talent!

GramaLaura 03-11-2013 05:57 AM

OMGoodness....OMG....OMG.....gorgeous!!!!! :)

luciab 03-11-2013 05:58 AM

Just amazing...love it!

solstice3 03-11-2013 06:29 AM

that is stunning

Years ago, when Sharon Schamber won the $100K quilt challenge, I was at Road2Ca and saw the most beautiful thread painted quilt. When I tried to find it to show my daughter, we couldn't find it. Finally, I saw it and told my daughter "There it is." She promptly said in a very long-suffering tone, "Mother, that's the back of Sharon's quilt."

Fuzzykittenbutt 03-11-2013 06:48 AM

oh wow, the front was already beautiful enough, but the back really shows off the stitching that much more. gorgeous!

Pinklady 03-11-2013 07:06 AM

I would fine a way to show both sides. One side , one week and reverse it the next week. Keep people surprised always.

fangman 03-11-2013 07:11 AM

That is amazing, what beautiful work.

kathidahl 03-11-2013 08:18 AM

Could we see the front please...this looks line a front it is so beautiful.

barny 03-11-2013 08:22 AM

Well now, that is just about the prettiest thing I have ever seen. I could never cover that up. Beautiful

lue 03-11-2013 08:25 AM

I think you have a reversible quilt! Lovely!

klgreene 03-11-2013 08:58 AM

OMG if this is the back, what does the front look like. Wonderful!!!!

Janquiltz 03-11-2013 09:08 AM

The front is beautiful - but the back is outstanding and really shows off your stitching. I, too, would find it difficult to hide the back, but I would have to abide by the wishes of the quilt's owner. I vote for you doing another one - similar to, but not just like, this one. Awesome!

Dlafon 03-11-2013 09:11 AM

I think you should enter that in a quilt show I have never seen anything like it. It is just beatuiful !!!

I think I may have to do one on a light colored background next so the finished piece looks more like this...what do you think?

callen 03-11-2013 09:20 AM

Wow, wow & another wow! That is amazing.

ctack2 03-11-2013 09:22 AM

Although the front is awesome, if I had the choice, I think I'd cover up the front and keep this side showing!
