And here is "Angelique" unobstructed.

A fun thing I found out about my Marie-Joseph Angelique piece is that my posts about her were compiled into one (by whom, I don't know), along with my photos, all properly attributed to me with link backs, and then that post was re-blogged and re-blogged and re-blogged - it was a rabbit hole! I stopped looking after finding 10 or 15 shares.

Although ordinarily, I wouldn't approve of someone doing so without my permission (and in future, please ask!) because it was always properly attributed - even to the 15th share - I didn't mind, and thought it was really cool. :)

So, back in 2011, I made this wall quilt, called "Fractured" (you really should click on that link and the links within to see the story of how it came to be, I'm always amused by it!) - and that wall quilt eventually was requested by the curator of the Union Art Gallery, who wanted t it be part of a show called "Throw: Great Lengths of Innovation in Modern Quilting " (that link goes to a review of the show.)

Anyway! If you remember all of that you may remember that this flower thingy above, was originally part of that wall quilt. I have four of them, actually, but decided to make one of them into a journal cover.
