Knock me over with a feather....I am a member on a Facebook fmq page and posted this horse there. None other than Helen Godden commented favourably on it :o and gave me some tips!

If you want to see some real painted quilting art, check out her things.

That's gorgeous, Watson!

Beautiful. Good job.

Gorgeous, I love the shimmery paints & the colors you chose. The quilted lines are perfect and especially detailing in the mane. Thanks for sharing this inspiring picture.

Nice painted horse.

In case anyone is interested, I wrote up a little Tutorial and posted it.

Fabulous work of art
