I do really like the mountain quilt and the quilting lines do enhance the "peaks"... I will look for 1 hour to create and maybe something will come along...Susan J Barkerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05706646375716992138noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-10887122.post-1152277235546196412006-07-07T09:00:00.000-04:002006-07-07T09:00:00.000-04:00Love the mountain quilt and the embellishments.Love the mountain quilt and the embellishments.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-10887122.post-1151359310200984752006-06-26T18:01:00.000-04:002006-06-26T18:01:00.000-04:00Ann, I am especially impressd with your kimono fab...Ann, I am especially impressd with your kimono fabric piece.

I left them long and then attached the wood and fish beads.<BR/><BR/>I did find a Japanese folk tale about the fisherman and the mountain man who are descended from the sun goddess...seems like I may have created a quilt to go with it.<BR/>AnnOperation Kid Comforthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18438607915866462199noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-10887122.post-1151153070946233832006-06-24T08:44:00.000-04:002006-06-24T08:44:00.000-04:00Ann, both of these new pieces are little treasures...Ann, both of these new pieces are little treasures. Your elegant quilting on the "deer" quilt is perfect, and in keeping with the Asian philosophy of less is more. The delicate fishing lines on the mountain quilt also prove the point. Are the lines some sort of cording, or are they tiny seed beads?<BR/><BR/>Congratulations on very successfully breaking your "block"! Let us know when you've decided on titles ... I love good titles!Linda Teddlie Mintonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05051700373576759351noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-10887122.post-1151130892670740022006-06-24T02:34:00.000-04:002006-06-24T02:34:00.000-04:00You are right!
