For those who stop here to view this tile in context, I wanted to leave this thought. It seems as an eternity has passed until I could feel as good about any of my work as I feel about this tile. It has been since the first weeks of august that I have been continually contributing work to these quilts. I do admit to being obstinate and obnoxious about my acceptance here but some of us are surely better listeners and better learners than I have been. I want to give a blanket "thank you", to all of you who have had the patience to await a tile, as this and who kept faith that I would someday find the answers needed to be able to do a tile like this. Thank you for responding to my rantings with kindness and for helping me find humility before a wide and talented audience. No, this tile is not my best work although I went with a consensus when I clicked off an orgiastic 5, with one fell swoop of my intellimouse. It is a worthy tile but more importantly it shows that I can learn, with the help and the precious interplay, of others. So, no matter what it is that you may feel about this tile, I like it because it shows growth and especially, because I owe that growth to you. And as for the best? Well keep your eye on the quilts because the way that I feel now, the best is yet to come...
Thank you, Eddie M.
