| I stopped at the little gallery that has been showing two of my fabric pieces today to show one of them to my mother and couldn't find it. When I inquired, the woman there told me that it had been sold! Woooo Hoooo! This is the piece, it is three dimensional, although that doesn't show up well in the photo.

| Thanks everyone. It does still tingle. Always good to know that someone cared enough for something I made to drop a chunk of money to own it. |

| boy do I know that! I've actually been in this for a long time - just getting out and selling now.
Summer is always scattered. Most of the time, if I do anything, it's to paint fabric. Right after I get the pickles made! |

| Not a wonder, just the chief cook in a family of people with food allergies. Although I have discovered that now that I'm not also doing chores morning and night that canning isn't really as hard as I remembered. I took a 10 year break, but am back to again.
Zany, that's a burnt polyester chiffon piece that's a redwood tree.
Finished, it has a white border, like a photograph.

| That is so cool! In the new picture it looks just like the view looking up in the woods here. So how does a NY'er come to understand the magnitude of such a view? LOL we have tourists laying on the ground with their cameras trying to capture it all the time and here you did it with fabrics!!! |

| lol, my cousin went to California (she's been several times, has friends and business contacts there), met a redwood and sent me the picture. I made her a fabric version. A friend from CA who has a friend who runs a craft store near a State Forest wanted me to send it out so they could sell it for me, but I had already sent it to my cousin. I've thought about making another - know what I'm doing now. It's made from strips of poly chiffon that are singed along the edges and then laid out, covered with blue netting, pinned and quilted. I used needle-nosed pliers to hold the fabric strips in the candle flame and I did it right by the sink, just in case. This one actually has a lot of flaws, but my cuz was happy. I got the idea from the Winter 2006 issue of "Quilting Arts Magazine." Connie's picture seemed the perfect model for the method. |

| I am sure it would sell in any of the many shops in this region. |
