I need Help :o

Here is the next step. I have the branches glue sticked down for now. That way I can do all of the shading on them and not have them move to much. I wanted to get the dragon to look like it was in a window, and push it back some in the piece. I am going to add a white border around outside, the same size as the the black, and red. Hopefully to frame the edge of the branch into the quilt. Then the hard part starts doing all of that sewing. But I guess that's why we do it, to do it...
started with these pieces

Started to sew in the tree branch and blossoms. I realized that the more flowers I put on this ,The more I had to sew. But I guess that's what we're here for.
I mean to make all of the cuts of fabric just to sew them back together.
It takes a special person to get the reason in that, right?

Holy cow this is amazing! Even more so when you have only just started FMQ. Love your fabric choices and love love love what you are doing with it.
On a side note regarding your OA, you should look into apitherapy (bee sting treatment). If you seek out bee keeping clubs in your area you can learn more. Here is a link I found on it http://arthritis.about.com/gi/o.htm?...lltherapy.com/
DH is a beekeeper and members of his group swear by it.
We have some similar interests as well, I too am into bikes love tats but only have two myself. I ride a HD Road King. Have ridden to sturgis twice and loads of places in between.

That, my friend is a crying shame! Have you looked into doing a hydraulic clutch conversion? Don't know if it will help or not. They run around $350. Don't know too much about it either but have heard it makes it much easier to pull in the lever on otherwise troublesome bikes. My Roadking has always had a very easy clutch that takes very little hand strength to pull it in, even with carpal tunnel I am ok with it most of the time. I rode with a guy who had a fatboy that I could not believe how hard that clutch was to pull in.
