| Sweet Clover, 2013 (actual size) |
It's a little greener in real life I think, but the distant fields are chartreuse as it looks. The horizon is from the lovely package of goodies sent to me by my buddy Christie (Describe Happy blog). I like the next photo - the 'glamour shot'. ; )
Okay, now say goodbye to 'Sweet Clover'. A friend of mine unexpectedly fell in love with it and bought it. ! On one hand, that's bad because now I have to sew even more to make the spring deadline. But of course, it's good - because on the way home I stopped at McNally Robinson's and bought a few books, completely guilt free. It's like a personal reward system for all the needle pricks in my fingers. lol
* * * Guess what books I bought? * * *
I'll think of something to send to the first person who guesses correctly (or at least the closest). There are three books on my table now. Guess as many books as you like in a comment below. Just be the first to get one right, and I'll offer a selection of things for you to chose from. How does that sound?
GOOD LUCK! (You'll need it.)

My guess is "Quilters Connection" and "Needle Pulling Thread".
CAn't think of the third but I can visualize a great needle art mag. The name leaves me.

I can't guess what you would get because if I started looking I would want to get them.... sigh
But I really wish you would create an online class to teach what you do. If you ever come to Southern Ontario I will be there if at all possible.
I can't begin to guess but I'll bet it's either a stitchery book or a nature book about grasses. I purchased Judith Baker Montano's 'Embroidery and Crazy Quilt Stitch Tool' recently....
Re: an online class - I second that wish!
Lovely stitch work!!
I think one of them is "Quiet".
sharon.bourque@sympatico.ca
Quilting ARTS, NPT or Quilters connection
I'm going to guess fiction! The Painted Girls, S.E.C.R.E.T. ,The Age of Hope
I'm thinking of the book I have by Judith baker montano, Free Form Embroidery.
Congrats on the sale!
Maeve Binchy's a week in winter, 15 Minutes Play, Modern Quilts from the Blogging Universe, Sunday Morning Quilts.
I'm going to go waayyyyy out there with my guesses…
Beautiful Creatures, Tough Guy, Steve Jobs, Lonely Planet: Ireland, Gordon Ramsay's Family Fare, and The Wealthy Barber.
Haha. I'd be shocked if I was close. :-)
no idea about a book, just want to say that you are amazing. every time I think its your best piece yet, you make a better one.
my guess..a Coutney Milne book??
c est super joli est ce un livre sur les fleurs ou les paysages ou bien broderie biz
Quilters Stitch Bible? (cuz you liked mine?) lol
Your art work is stunningly gorgeous! You are incredibly talented! Love all your pieces and as said previously, each time i see the most amazing piece, you create a more amazing piece next time!
I too would love to take an online class with you as to how you do what you do.
And my guesses are, Quiltmakers Colour Workshop, or Intuitive Color and Design.
The Twelve by Justin Cronin... my current read.

The ribbon embroidery bible,
A-Z of ribbon embroidery,
