    You have done a lovely job. My daughter is coming today to show me how to get pictures from my phone to my computer. I will have her upload my first (and so far only) landscape quilt that I just finished.
    at the point of reading this i have already sewn it.. no moving it now....i actually tried to do rocks across i didn't like how it looked.. so i piled them there... i do not like how my snow turned out as i tried to put some metallic thread for shimmer and that didn't work well and finished up in just white.... no worries.. i had someone see it last night and commission me to do a bird one for her :) This is a learn as you go process... :)

    I have never used that product what is it called? I would love to see your photo be sure to send me a link and thanks for the suggestions..

    I do remember them from my time living in toronto years ago.

    That is wonderful, imagination being able to put your thoughts on your canvas ( fabric). The post previous to yours talked about comparing artists and quilters - Wow what a good example. Great work!
