ALMOST HEAVEN - new work

Once I got the evergreen boughs cut, I became obsessed and in a finishing mode.  So my first art quilt of 2023 is now complete!

  1. Oh, this is SO lovely! I'd be tempted to give it to that son who got you the machine. ;-)

  3. Sheila.....I'd give it to our son in a heartbeat if he wanted it........they already have more pieces of mine than they can hang!
    Hope someone does give it a home though.

  4. How nice to have the first finish. And it's a beauty. Those tree shapes are just outstanding against the hills and sky.

  5. Your sky is exquisite. I also really like the bare branches? interspersed amongst the tree foliage. I am so glad you have the mental space to get back to your creative efforts. Happy new year and hoping 2023 will give you lots of opportunities to create.

  7. Mary, that DID cross my mind about the son already having lots of your pieces. Surely this one will sell fast - fingers crossed!
