It is a little melancholy and really beautiful.<BR/><BR/>The right side of your piece is cut off as I view it. The whole thing appears when I click on it and it comes up in Flickr. I've looked at it in both MSExplorer and Firefox. Both cut off the right side. I see that the photo is 500 pixels wide. That shouldn't matter--Blogger usually displays at 400, but maybe if you can reduce your image to 400 ppi it will display all of it. Is everyone seeing this with the side cut off?Terry Granthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16650965451863656517noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4519632209878236029.post-49188226955989630812007-10-31T00:33:00.000-07:002007-10-31T00:33:00.000-07:00It's lovely.

I wish I could read what it says on the side in the blue section. The background quilting looks lovely also -- echoing the blowing seeds. And the dramatic striped binding is a perfect frame.Deborah Boscherthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15630878222793439712noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4519632209878236029.post-32960331164148359452007-10-30T17:36:00.000-07:002007-10-30T17:36:00.000-07:00I love the sparsness.

It feels very "airy" and appropriate for the great sentiment.Diane Perinhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07447372718275554860noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4519632209878236029.post-45548316989700811012007-10-30T16:29:00.000-07:002007-10-30T16:29:00.000-07:00I really like that you put so much thought into th...I really like that you put so much thought into this and went a little abstract, I wish I could do more of thatKarenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12821013559380002293noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4519632209878236029.post-90071400867292778362007-10-30T15:47:00.000-07:002007-10-30T15:47:00.000-07:00This is delightful.
