So amazingly beautiful! What a wonderful life to share your talent like that. I'd say you are in league with the Old Masters who wouldn't for a moment think of putting a brush down to get a life.

I can't believe she did it in as FEW as 650 hours. Very roughly speaking but to put it in perspective, that's the equivalent of a person working 12 hours a day on it, and doing it in 54 days. I know I couldn't do a masterpiece like that in 54 days!!! A joy to lose oneself just gazing at it. Thank you for sharing!

This is amazing. The hand work is spectacular. I do hand embroidery so I can appreciate the work you did on the hand quilting. The pictures you chose are so American. Thank you for sharing.
