Nice blending of FLW and nature. Hope you begin to feel more comfortable with your machine soon.

Maybe that's why a lot of paintings were painted over.

I have a $2700 machine that you have to out your hand right in front of the needle sight line to do a reverse, aggravating!

I must admit I have a new Brother that I do the majority of my quilting on but have a couple of vintage machines to do other stitches.

And this one plays on my heart strings as I am a long-time fan of Frank Lloyd Wright designs. And you have done with his window exactly what I always felt should be done when rendering these in fabric - show the greenery outside the window! I don't know if I'll ever make one of these, even though I've had Jackie Robinson's Quilts in the Tradition of Frank Lloyd Wright since it came out in 1995, and even set aside some pale green fabric for the panes, intending to quilt in bushes that one might view out such a window. Not sure I have to after seeing your rendition. That pale tree in the background is so perfect for this. I'm sure Wright would approve (well, maybe - he WAS rather cranky). Glad you are back. :-)The Idaho Beautyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09979439849662755082noreply@blogger.com
