    Default My Cancun view quilted- thanks for the help

    I posted on the main board asking for advice about this wallhanging. It was recommended that I add some shading to the rails. I got some Inktense blocks and shaded them. Also I adjusted the rails some. The tall post is not a palm tree but is part of the structure. I also made the thatch more choppy.
    Thanks to all who offered suggestions. I am very happy with how this came out. It just needs the binding. I am also posting the original photo.

    Your wall-hanging is very well done. A lot of work too. I would be very pleased if it were mine. Your clouds and water look very real.

    I can't see it either. I just see "attachment" with a tiny checked box. But then I am sitting in a dim office and a picture of Cancun might just be too depressing. (NOT!)

    I am glad the pictures are coming through now. This is certainly a quilt I wanted to see. You did a very fine job with all of this. So much better than a mere postcard to remember you trip with.
