    What great quilts and I'm sure it was nice to step out of your comfort zone to make them. Very nice work, the faces look very realistic.

    Are you kidding? They're great. I love the sewing machine and the landscape and the...well, I love all of them. What a lot of work and energy you put into learning a new technique. I give you an A+!

    You almost give me courage to try! I keep wanting to try something artsy but just so hard for me to do it. These are great.
