I believe there is a book on how to make those little boxes, but I will have to find out the name of it for you. I will come back on that so watch this space

Those are all just beautiful. The mushrooms are awesome. I love the quilting. The embroidery is beautiful too. It almost looks 3D. I love the quilts too. Thanks for sharing.

Littlehud, it does look 3D because it actually stands away from the background, don´t know how she does it but its awesome. That particular picture took 3 years to complete, she said if she had been in England it would have been 9 months as she had more time in England, but because we have such good weather her compared to England she goes out a lot more.

thanks for all the comments its lovely to have such appreciation.
