MIchael's birds and dinosaurs

 
 Here are his two latest quilts.  Both patterns from Elizabeth Hartman.  We've got birds.  Notice that the eyes of this little guy measure at 1/4" square finished.  Wow.  That's little!

 Quilted with SID around the birds, and then a tight swirly design in the background.





And Dinosaurs!  Aren't they adorable?  I realize that "Barney" the dino was purple, but the blue turquoise one in about the middle is the one that makes me most think of "Barney"
Who says that you can't have a dino who is plaid, or polka dotted? Quilted with "kukui nut" thread in the top, and rust in the bobbin, and then the Dinosaur panto.  Love how the bobbin thread just melts into the backing.
This is the backing fabric.  Wonderful!  Totally different from the front, and I think it was chosen first.
