I M Perfect lady

I had the day off today and I spent many hours in the basement creating a Lady quilt for a woman who has been instrumental with WIND.  

As the quilt began to take shape….the tree bending in the Wind, the Jacket that seemed to be moving…the hair.  Oh, I began to love this quilt.  I seriously  contemplated keeping it for me. I mean really keeping it.  I loved the overall look and feelings it evoked.  

The background of this quilt was the backdrop of the snowman quilt, but I couldn't seem to get this one to work for the woman I had in mind.  So, I took off the snowman and added a tree…and then I changed the Lady…..and here it is.

I just loved the feel of this totally…the different Christmas colors.  The orange ornaments have glitter on them…just all of it.  I took pretty many pictures for I knew it was going away and I could picture this on a Christmas card some day.  

The more pictures I took, the more I fell in love with it…and the harder it was to let her go.  

When I got home, I quickly wrapped it up without a further thought, knowing it was going to someone who loves my Art and who would appreciate the gesture….and I was right.

She LOVED it.  

I know it went to a happy woman and it will bring moments of joy in the days to come.  Already in short one day…we both fell in love with her.  It is like she is a new friend…a woman who you want to get to know better.

I am glad I took many pictures….she was pure joy!

Merry Christmas An-Gel…May she be a reminder to follow your joy!
