For the Yahoo CPS group. Procion dyed and painted cotton, with stencilled bugs, beading, hand twisted cording, free motion embroidery, ribbon, rabbit fur, paper, entrapped sequins, found objects; the tassels on bottom are 7" long. I think i may have made mine bigger than everyone else's----i accidentally grabbed a 9" square that had been slated for a smallsmall quilt exchange and didn't realize until i was almost done! From closed top to the bottom of the tassels, it's 17"!!!!!!
