Approaching Winter

5 1/2 x 4 feet
Winner in the Embellished catagory of the 2007 $100,000 Quilting Contest. Selected as one of the featured quilts in Lark Books '500 Art Quilts' (available on Amazon)
Inspired by an Edward Lear lymerick :
There was an old man with a beard,
Who said "It is just as I feared!
Two owls and a hen, four larks and a wren,
have all made their nests in my beard!"
