“Exuberance” Complete
I’m very happy with my latest piece, Exhuberance.
See more photos and information.
And here’s a photo of what it might look like installed in an interior.

Woohoo, the background of my current quilt is finally complete! Composed and glued and ready for stitching, (but without the green hexie in the center of the photo.)
