    Here are some of my favorites from the Portland Expo Quilt Show 2011.

    I believe this was called Mermaids Castle or something like that. It was absolutely gorgeous & had mermaids all over it!! A spectacular work of art!!

    I just love this!! The light and shadows are beautiful on this little girl. It looks like she's making a wish while she blows the dandilion seeds away. The tennis shoe had a 3-D lace too. Cute!! Great work!!
