The library where I started working last month is having a contest for their employees to create "art" to display during their fall reading program which features Edgar Allan Poe. Here's what I came up with. (The eye isn't really as big as it looks...it's a "jewel" that is reflecting in the flash of the camera).

Oh, that's so cool! I remember reading that back in junior high!

WOW!!! You did a wonderful job on this, it is dark, dreary, and will last for ever more!!!
The students are going to love this :D:D:D

OOOOOO that is sooooo cool! I hope you win the contest!

That is brilliant, you must be very talented.

The eye sets if off. You did a great job. I think Poe would be proud.

Very impressive! You totally captured the mood of the poem with that quilt.

I loved that book!! The quilt would make an excellent book jacket!!

Wow....your library should be very impressed with your work! I'm betting you will be getting a lot of compliments from the other patrons of the library! Love the quilt!

WOW!!! That's definitely going to be the BEST display at the library. It'll inspire everyone to read his books!

Very, very cool!!

Wow, that's fantastic, I love the quilt, and Edgar Allan Poe.

Oh, I love that! Great job.

Great quilt. Good luck.

Awesome.

Wow, that is cool. You did a great job.

Terrific job! I love it!

Beautiful.

that's terrific

Great!

What a winner! Got a question however.....did you print that name with a printer set on extremely large script? It looks so perfect.

Well done! Beautifully done!

I did print the names using PrintMaster with the font "Duchess" size 71 for Edgar Allan Poe and font "Antique" size 59 for The Raven. The fabric I have that I can print on is white which looked too stark for the "feel" I was going for so I tea dyed it to make it more compatible with the project. It worked great!

Thanks everyone for you encouraging comments.

Let us know what happens

I will....thank you!

:-D

That is fantastic. What a great picture.

I love it!! Really great job!! :D :thumbup:
