"OK, I'll own up. I didn't know Bonnet Stitch existed until now. And I really like the way the bottom right-hand leaf is embellished (with Bonnet Stitch). Very lichen like."

"Your background brings movement to your finished piece, nice usage of fabric to enhance. Your turtle is so cute, the angle of his feets (is that what they are called??), makes me feel that the turtle is moving through the water."

thank you Dianne for your email re crazy quilting. It is the design and placing I want the help with more than the stitching so will have another look for the Judith`s books, have her elegant stitches book which also has crazy stitches in but no planning as it is a stitch book.I really should stop buying books as I have fsr too many but cannot resist them.
