Ahh the smell of turpentine in the morning..smells like 'victory' *bad robert duvall impersonation*



Various states of undress and undone-ness.. going on though

hunkered down

Is that even a real phrase? Anyway, some lovely shots of the garden, which I have not done much to, and have surrendered it to the summer...

Submitted!

Ok, this is how it eventually turned out..the 'bird's eye view of the Rappahannock River", I showed no color restraint what so ever..


Over 45 fabrics, hand dyed and commercial, machine and hand sewn, quilted and embellished.

With some of Glennis' hand dyed shibori ribbon for good measure.. about 32x28" finished!
