Sounds like an Ophra best seller huh? I felt like quilting so here's a quilt. It's inspired by Nancy Crow by way of Gee's Bend. And it's somewhat a raggedy quilt as you can see some of the seams are a bit frayed. It's stitched in the ditch and I always add a border to my quilts (I know, surprise). Usually black and white, it makes the rest of the quilt jump out and it keeps the viewer's eye from wandering off the quilt. Of course I only thought of that after I started to add borders. And I did a mitered binding too, multi color dots. Mitered bindings are hard so I usually do round bindings except when I draw the quilt. Then I can do any binding I want.
9"x12", markers on bristol board.
Colorful Expressions on Flickr left a comment that she liked the way I draw and draw and draw. I said that it's the one thing in my life that is constant and bottomless and forgiving and will take as much or as little as I'm capable of giving and never says no.
This is incredible. A real inspiration for me. You always are.

This is so awesome. You are right and I love having been a part of watching you draw and drawn and draw. As Marissa said, a real inspiration. Hope you are well Janey my dear!
