Here's the Autumn Sunprints jacket front, complete with button loops and buttons.  It is a bit bright, but when fall comes, with all of the lovely, drifting leaves, I just want to hold that memory against the dark times, when all the leaves have fallen, and the year is dying.

Here's the back, which is where this whole thing started. I used a very thin batting, but I think I need to throw the whole thing in the washing machine and dryer just to soften up to the comfortable stage.  Now, I have to think of something very plain to wear with this, eh?

There is vitality, a life-force, a quickening that is translated through you into action. And because there is only one of you in all time, this expression is unique. If you block it, it will never exist through another medium. It will be lost. The world will not have it. It is not your business to determine how good it is…It is your business to keep it yours clearly and directly, to keep the channel open. - Martha Graham

"We can do no great things, only small things with great love."  - Mother Theresa

"When the eye, the hand, and the heart come together, that's when you get the greatest art." - David Hockney
