Give them to me :lol: , or failing that, if you are able to wash out the lines, quilt them

Thank you.

I actually made that light green a bit darker.

Henry, what a fabulous buy! Love how it's coming along...everyone has had some fantastic suggestions. You could stitch in a few seed beads to give a little extra dimension, and maybe some highlights with metallic thread. Anyway, whatever you do it will be just beautiful.

About framing...try, if you can, to get it professionally done, by someone who will take care to do it properly (acid free mats, not putting the glass too close, not using staples etc. etc.). After all, you are putting such a lot of time and artistry into the project.

Can't wait to see more pics.

That place had some amazing finds. I am going to go back after the holiday and see what else I can find.

Dont mess with them at all , first consult antique dealer who is knowlegeable and maybe try to have preserved and framed but only by someone who knows textiles. could be worth thousands of dollars. just my opinion betty

tuesy 12-15-2009 08:03 AM

I'm going with the majority here.. color them.. they're pretty cool looking!!

topper1 12-15-2009 08:24 AM

I am sorry, I thought they were hand printed or embroidered, sorry Betty. Coloring would be nice. please accept my apology just didnt want to ruin something worth something. betty

If you click on quote reply under a comment it will put up that persons name and comment. It makes it quick and easy to single them out for a comment or question. :D:D:D

Brandy is a she. and yes she is cute and fat. I had to put her on a diet. Apparently I was over feeding her. But looking at her now you would never guess that she was the runt of that litter and is one of only two of the litter that are living.

What picture looked like a chicken in a bowl?

I think she's referring to Kathy's avatar (post on pg 1). I was wondering about it too.

Did one of the windows tonight... I am going to go over it with some fabric paint after Christmas. I realized I dont have any brown and a few other colors I want. I found a red, blue, silver and green one though in my craft bin.

It IS in fact a chicken in a bowl. It's apparently where the chicken likes to be - ruined the flowers and laid her eggs there.

LOL

Boston1954 12-17-2009 01:53 PM

I wonder if there is a way that it can be enlarged and then applique over it.....

amma 12-17-2009 04:57 PM

Looking good.

lots2do 12-17-2009 05:24 PM

I think you are off to a fine start.
By the way, you can also color with regular Crayolas and iron set the results. I've done that on another similar project. You can blend the colors too. I was advised to only trust Crayolas.

Wonderful wonderful. Scrap Quilter

So I took the suggestion and colored it with Crayola crayons. I will now go back and continue to put in my stitching along the lines to give it a more 3D feel. We will see how it turns out. But here it is colored.
