I am eager to do more painting onto fabric, so I need to know your technique, how or if you prepare the fabric, etc. But that can wait for a one to one conversation. Meanwhile, wow! This quilt is simply lovely, such a pristine, serene scene you've captured. And I enjoyed your reminiscing, too, of your childhood, since obviously here in Central Texas, we have far too few "snow days"!Alicehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01193658783135430973noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4728166793718979713.post-83825776350518840652013-11-16T07:33:57.422-05:002013-11-16T07:33:57.422-05:00Oh Judy this is lovely.

Although I agree much fun and comfort can be gotten from a snow fall , I have returned to my southern roots to escape them!Nedra Weaverhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12713288647355250747noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4728166793718979713.post-84635471773362257122013-11-16T06:53:29.643-05:002013-11-16T06:53:29.643-05:00A beautiful job!

Ha. But yes, the childhood memories resurfaced with your excellent narrative. I especially like the luminescent horizon you managed to capture in your painting. I really must give painting directly on fabric a try. Your results inspire me.JWhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13873703819530569975noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4728166793718979713.post-87257084028841135952013-11-16T00:54:05.781-05:002013-11-16T00:54:05.781-05:00Hi Judy - By far, this is my favorite of all the ...Hi Judy - By far, this is my favorite of all the quilts you've done. Your story is as real as they come, and it brought me back to the 35+ years I lived in Anchorage, AK. You captured the essence both in your narrative, and in your superb use of materials and thread.
