I mean what if some one actually wants to but one of them? But truth, my hand stitching is far from perfect.<br />Love the pile of green!!<br />All your intentions look good. <br />And what's this about a wannabe artist? Please!

It struck me that I've always thought that the traditional quilt shows always look for precision and perfect stitches, bindings, backs, etc. while the art quilt world is looking for the art itself. (I'm always kind of amazed at art quilts that have rows of seemingly unrelated, uneven hand-stitching thrown in). Of the 4 art quilts I've purchased, 3 have the envelope finishing. My recent pieces have a felt back and zig- zag edges ala Jamie Fingal at Twisted Sister. <br />I think your work is amazing and hope you do whatever is fun, rather than look for the impossible perfection!Susan Turneyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09864635774677436375noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8255866198284788.post-51170888971703156482012-11-20T09:27:46.130-05:002012-11-20T09:27:46.130-05:00Sometimes we just need to play too!

I think I may have found my word to work on for next year... And I can contribute that to you Kit! lol <br />And I did like the green too! All those bits might make a create base to work on.... hummmmmmmm Jo Vandermeyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07387737331055177779noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8255866198284788.post-86336001933495469492012-11-20T08:24:39.245-05:002012-11-20T08:24:39.245-05:00Yeah, I get it.
