Gladie; I love it!! I really like Gwen Marston designs and made a liberated flower pot quilt for a niece of mine. It's fun.

That was my first thoughts also! You did a great job!

Great job! As usual. This inspires me to try some 'liberation' also.

I love It! Great look! I love windmills! Windmills mean water here in W TX. We're still in a drought!

G.- Looking at your artwork again! I like the way the windmill looks. All the detail-did you make the barn siding 3-D? the straw and grass looks real. And the colors are so me, country looking and all. N.

How hard was it for you to do your liberated flower pot? We have similar quilting styles and processes and it was difficult for me to be "free". For me taking this a step further with the barn and windmill was more challenging.
