There is a reason I do not do bedspreads BUT....
Okay, here is the way it is.....remodeling guest room, (low budget of course). Doing boom swaps, given a ton of black background, rose/floral material (did I mention my house is victorian)..and I say to self--self you can make the bedspread for the room--save big money LOL. Many months later, I have finished piecing the top of the comforter and still have the shams to make. The low budget part, haven't bought the batting yet $70, paid for quilting yet $100, bought pillow forms??? you get the idea...BUT..I will have a comforter with blocks made from many friends and it will be special...will I do it again...ummmm NO! Do not try to find a place for your eyes to rest...there is none :-(
I really like doing the art pieces much -more-better....

Haven't posted in a while.....
Been rather busy and have not been in my studio as much as normal. However, I do have 11 smalls, composed and ready to begin working on. This picture is the first one I have stitched and started to paint on. Can you believe I am actually doing a floral still life!! If you look closely you will see the vase is not even close to balanced as it was created out of an irregular scrap...love irregularities. This is just pinned on a background as I decide what the next progression will be.....
