Artist's Comments

This piece is a small quilt. The figure was appliquied onto the print fabric background. Then I embroidered the black line around the figure. I did it loosely to make it look like a drawn line. I added the batting and back cloth and quilted them all together.
This piece measures 28" high x 22" wide. It will be shown at Galleri Urbane in Marfa, Tx. , starting April 6th. This is just one of 12 pieces in this show.

:wow: I can't believe that's part of a quilt... is there any way to see it larger? I'd really like to be able to gawk at the details :nod: I love the way the squirrel is chained directly to her heart... wonderful concept :clap: My mom had 3 pet squirrels when she was young... she rescued them as babies and they were very tame and followed her everywhere...

Hi, thanks for the comps! The image you see is the whole quilt. I had wrote, "This piece is a small quilt". Which, if you read like I do, you might mistake it for , " This is a piece of a small quilt". Frankly I'm not sure I could do a large quilt. This one gave me such a bad case of Carpal Tunnel. I would hate to have to start machine stitching my quilts, I love the idiosyntric quality of hand work.

Sorry... ADD :blush: It's amazing, I haven't done anything with my hands for so long, I don't even know if I could... as for sewing machines... yeesh, I never know how to even thread one! I have these porcelain dolls that I made a long time ago and all but one are still naked... and the only reason that one of them has clothes on is because she was big enough for me to buy her human toddler clothing :disbelief: yes... I know... I'm pathetic :ashamed:
