Finished a small quilt
Oh my gosh! Sandy - your quilting is beautiful & the dragon is sure to be a
hit with your eye doctor! I made a baby quilt for a doctor that literally saved my life a couple of years ago & she was so touched by it. Last year, I made a music themed quilt for another doctor - that literally saved my life - & every time I see him, he tells me how he has it displayed in his music room & when it's chilly he pulls it around him. It's wonderful to give a quilt to someone that really treasures it. I'm sure your eye doctor will! Pauline Northern California "Sandy" wrote in message ... My eye therapist has been so good to me for the past couple of years -- even driving to my home the night of my eye surgery to make sure I had some glasses I'd be able to see with -- that I decided to make her a small quilt (my favorite kind G). She's been given many different dragons over the years, mostly from the children she treats, so I made her a little dragon quilt. Before I could make it, though, I had to take a machine appliqué class to learn a technique I thought I could actually use, so that finally happened last summer. I finished the quilt today, though I still need to sew on the label. I machine quilted it, with feathers, pebbles and flowing (sort of) lines -- I'd hoped those last would indicate motion, but I'm not sure I succeeded. The dragon's eye is a garnet bead, and I put a double row of corded piping next to the binding as an accent. Pictures are posted he http://www.sandymike.net/html/applique.html#Dragonflight. I hope you like it, but -- even more important -- I hope my doctor likes it! -- Sandy in Henderson, near Las Vegas sw.foster1 (at) gmail (dot) com (remove/change the obvious) http://www.sandymike.net |

Sandy, it's gorgeous. No 'ifs' and 'buts', just plain wonderful.
The dragon is friendly and beautiful - but that quilting. Oh my! Your work is just superb. And now you have 'conquered' appliqué g. I can hardly wait to see what you will come up with next, now that you have another string to your bow (one that you never thought you would have!!). It was good to revisit the sweet hummingbird, too. ..

Great quilting! Too bad the dragon doesn't have a pair of glasses on --
maybe he had LASIK? ;-P -- Kathy A. (Woodland, CA) Queen of Fabric Tramps remove the obvious to reply http://www.flickr.com/photos/kathyapplebaum/ "Sandy" wrote in message ...
