    and since there are no amounts, i think we're dealing with a spammer!
    i have been to paris, loved it!! i would LOVE to go back and see more of france. where will you be going? we could take suitcases full of fabric from our stashes, sell it to the french quilters and then be free to buy some french fabrics. i wonder, do they have the same fabric lines we do?

    abd-- so wonderful! glad you have joined us! i love the progression of your work. i so rarely keep mine, but your re-working a concept, inspires me to think along those lines myself. i am still working on my snap dragon from last month. i am drawing the flowers themselves and i'm not terrific at realism, including in my day to day life, lol, so it is taking me some repetitions to get something reasonably similar to snapdragons that others might think that's what they are!

    abd there are some great ideas in there. Thanks so much for sharing. It starts the wheels turning to get some of those creaky old ideas out there and into play again.

    Great to see you here abd!
    Your work is always a treat to see.
    Leaving tomorrow for Marseilles & Aix. Did I mention we are foodies?
    How do you say " fat quarter" in French?

    Back in NYC. There is not a lot of quilting in Provence but plenty of inspiration . The traditional fabrics seem most suitable for drapes, tablecloths, etc. I loved the damask but it was way too expensive for me. Bought one lovely print, about $15/yard US but 60" wide. Now... what was that June challenge? Happy Summer everyone! Winter, Suzy!
