    Your quilting is absolutely fabulous - it does look like Zentangle throughout. Beautiful to say the least.

    There is nothing more for me to say other than DITTO to what has been said. I do like the idea of a "Spinning Thing". If you had that I bet some people wouldn't know which was the front and which was the back. Both are beautiful. I thank GOD for giving you such talent and to you for sharing that talent with us. I know that he gave me some kind of talent I am just still trying to find out what it is. (ha, ha). Thank you again for sharing. BrendaK

    He is stunning, can you put a light in his eyes? Just a dot of white would liven his eyes right up.
