It all started with some sunflower prints...
What else comes to mind when you think of sunflowers and art.
A little bit of needlefelting
Some thread sketching
Some quilting
I thought the spiral went well with Vincent. More quilting
And I finally had something I liked. No-one said anything about size, so I went a bit overboard (sorry)
