This quilt is to represent a postage stamp.  It is a hand painted using procion dye and heavily thread painted quilt.  It is based on a drawing I did of my favorite bird, the white breasted nuthatch.

Your drawing & quilt are just like a nuthatch - blending in with the tree it is climbing on.

Your quilt is beautiful and I,m sure you hated to part with it. I hope the owner has given it a good home!
