I keep coming back because I love your writing voice. I love how "you" seep out from phrases and sentences about quilts or yoga or your pets... BUT... I have not a clue about quilts. The technical (and even the less than technical) just goes right over my head, and I'm ok with that. But finally with this one, I had to go to YouTube and see what in the world a "long arm" was and how on earth a person gets all those beautiful and intricate designs inside every part of a huge quilt. Wow. Just wow. Ok. I get it now. <br />By the way... I've thought it 100 times, but I'm not sure I've ever said it in a comment to you... You are an amazing artist.<br />Have a great day.<br />HHelenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12410396096264457223noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8372716062763623967.post-10835176599421871652014-07-08T12:04:13.517-04:002014-07-08T12:04:13.517-04:00It's already been said, but ABSOLUTELY GORGEOU...It's already been said, but ABSOLUTELY GORGEOUS QUILTING on this bag.

I had to go back...Oh jeepers I just can't stop. I had to go back and look at the pics again. How do you deal with getting winded (which you clearly do so on a regular basis given your age)? I can't stop gasping. Is it just me being the absolutely clueless non-quilter, or is this bag just a magnificent creation?? Or is it the outstanding effect of turquoise-on-black? Or the INCREDIBLE amount of delicate stitched designs (I don't know the correct term for all the sewing, sorry) filling, no DECORATING the bag?? Anybody, untrained quilting eye or not, can see what a truly magnificent creation this is. You're doing the world an injustice, Sandra, by not sharing your incredible talent in a tangible way. Thank God for this wonderful blog - we are privy to some pretty amazing creations - but you really need to share your talent further. Unbelievable. Can't stop shaking my head and tutting, wow.Linda Chttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05911266248363959007noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8372716062763623967.post-16244171011266166352014-07-03T19:46:43.670-04:002014-07-03T19:46:43.670-04:00Oh my GOSH Sandra this bag is so absolutely STUNNI...Oh my GOSH Sandra this bag is so absolutely STUNNING. I gasped when I saw the first pic and by the end of the blog I was winded from all the subsequent gasps. This is so outstanding I can't find words to articulate its incredible beauty, AND your unbelievable TALENT!! I keep encouraging you to SELL these things, omg you'd have such a following that you'd never keep up with orders!! Your little makeup bags, your quilts, and now THIS - this piece of original, phenomenally artistic, one-of-a-kind gems! If you took orders, omg, just set up a damn website and start selling sister!!!! Just don't forget commission for your ever-loving -- (much younger) -- #1 encourager/supporter sister!

Lots of lovely FMQ. Love the turquoise thread on the background fabric. It is very beautiful - but I think in the beauty department Bella gives it a good run for its money.Hilary Florencehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03611511885397558659noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8372716062763623967.post-46472752619171602672014-06-30T16:56:17.230-04:002014-06-30T16:56:17.230-04:00Oh wow what a fantastic idea!
