I love the low-key color palette ... if you really don't care for it, you could always sell it on ebay or etsy and make a little spending money for some brighter stash LOL! But seriously, it's wonderful. Are the fish separate pieces that you "appliqued" on top? Their edges look like they're finished in the same way as the whole piece.Jenniferhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13581789661908429396noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-14046597.post-90436993916876792482007-05-25T09:12:00.000-04:002007-05-25T09:12:00.000-04:00What a surprise, I come to leave a comment and fin...What a surprise, I come to leave a comment and find everyone else agrees! I love this blue crusty, too, and while it may not have enough contrast to suit you, and is perhaps a bit tamer than your usual design aesthetic, it is truly wonderful--ALL of it.<BR/><BR/>When I lived/worked in France, a friend and I would occaisonally pull out the Michelin green guide for the area and make ourselves get out and do something <I>touristy</I> ... I enjoyed many nested mountain villages and small museums that I know I otherwise would have completely missed. Maybe you could take yourself out on a weekly Artist Date a la Julia Cameron as a way of exploring Paris.sophiehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13408822963659450038noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-14046597.post-48037478479721501082007-05-25T06:24:00.000-04:002007-05-25T06:24:00.000-04:00Tonya if you want to see a French film with a real...Tonya if you want to see a French film with a really dark side, you must, must, must see Delicatessen.

I'm having trouble sizing it up. <BR/>I see that Susan has just decided to start her home camps again after several years hiatus. I've taken workshops with her, but not at her place. I think people who've never tried this method don't suspect how time-intensive these pieces are. But fun!

Monochromatic is a theme -- and this piece just has such whimsy and fun to it. I'm sure what you do with it will be lovely -- but I am loving the way the fish come off the edges and play amonst the stars and the moon.atethttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13563533672161608587noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-14046597.post-60742833123210129852007-05-24T18:11:00.000-04:002007-05-24T18:11:00.000-04:00I, too, like the whole blue crusty piece.I, too, like the whole blue crusty piece.Nellie's Needleshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12468773469685787840noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-14046597.post-82190473606837938312007-05-24T18:07:00.000-04:002007-05-24T18:07:00.000-04:00amazing how different things speak to different qu...amazing how different things speak to different quilters.

I too am a fan of Gwen Marston and Joe Cunningham. I realized lately that I prefer free piecing and quilting because I don't get bored that way. <BR/><BR/>I'm very interested in your quilting without a hoop. Your quilting stitches are really lovely! What size needle do you use and what kind of batting do you use. I've done some quilting without a hoop, though I prefer the hoop so that I have something to hold onto. I also use Quilter's Dream Request which is their thinnest batt and seems easiest for quilting without a hoop. I just finished a mini quilt that I quilted free hand and haven't had that much fun quilting in a long time.<BR/><BR/>My favorite quilt you did is the Halloween houses one. The quilting is very creative. Thanks so much for sharing your techniques and ideas!Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-14046597.post-78378664961172682582007-05-24T13:16:00.000-04:002007-05-24T13:16:00.000-04:00You're crazy!
