Suggestion: the icy, pastel-y days when there is a lot of ice fog (is that even doable?). If that won't work, how about a bunch of AK berries! Blue, straw,rasp,etc :)

Hi Beret! Love your quilts and cards! Looks like you got your Mom's artist talent! I would love to win the chickadees. My suggestion, of course, would be a moose--or two, or three or??? :) I also wish you would come and teach a class here at North House sometime when you come back to visit. This looks like fun, and now that I'm retired, I might have time to give it a try...

I think you should make one of the aurora with maybe a raven silhouette against it. That would be cool. Maybe little sleeping bags on the ground. Would be a good seller at CHS. I would like the one with the little bird houses. Love them all.

I'm a oceanologist and my favorite sea animals are dolphins and squid. I particularly like squid and this they are beautiful creatures. I'm a bit of an amateur sewer, and I'm sure sewing a squid would be difficult, but I would love it. I searched for a sea animal pattern, but didn't see any. The snowman one was my favorite though.

The chicadee is adorable. My cat has a different "meow" for chicadees than any other bird. I think the direct translation is "those damn birds I can't ever catch". I love dragonflies. Of course, I hear that the mosquitos in Alaska are as big as dragonflies...so that's an idea too.
