Beautiful colorss

I too decided to visit your blog. Thank you for chronicling the steps from inspiration to final rendition. Your pieces are always spectacular but this one really speaks to me. I adore the beautiful autumn foliage and you have captured it perfectly. Having a wee glimpse into the thoughts and processes involved, makes it even more special. WOW just does not say enough.

(Would your hubby be willing to share his chicken stock recipe??)

Gorgeous1 Love the colors!

It's so realistic I mistook it for a photo!

The secret is plenty of Backs and Feet! We usually hit the oriental markets. And thanks for the feedback!

Just gorgeous, very realistic wonderful work.

magnificent quilt.

Thank you!! For a moment when I first read your reply, I was trying to figure out how your back and/or feet made your autumn scene so spectacular. DUH!! Does he just toss in the feet or skin them, roast them, or something else?? I always toss my backs into a hot oven for a while to get the roasted taste.

(BTW my go-to is the carcass and skin from a commercial BBQ chicken--one meal from the breast, pull off all the rest of the meat and put aside to add to my Chicken Dump Soup and throw everything else into a crockpot overnight for stock)

When we have it we throw in as much fat as possible. It really adds to the month feel or the UMAMI which is the catch phase for flavour these days!

Wow, absolutely amazing.
