    Thank you Jenny!

      Oh you are so welcome! It was good to see your work in person again. With the demise of PIQF it will be hard for me to see it.

    That’s my Moonlit, in your Statement/Emotion section. Thanks for including it.

      Oh I HAD to include it Wendy! It spoke to me, softly: the calm, the colors, the quilting, the composition. I get a feeling of calm, quiet and awe.
