Motmot 21"h x 21"w © 2004 Sold Collection of Mrs. Carol Tiley, Montpelier, VT Update 11/9/04: finished! "Motmot" begun during artist-in-residence for "Febrero Mes del Quilt" Galería Sophia Wanamaker San Pedro, Costa Rica, February 2004 To commission a quilt, contact clvquilts@yahoo.com.

	September Update: quilting stage Over the summer I started the quilting, trapunto, and embroidery phases. Here's what the piece will look like after it is placed in the custom oak frame that my husband Peter made. It will probably have a dark green fabric matte.
March Update: 2nd painting stage Back in my studio I've added a cala lily, three types of orchards, and have begun filling in the background foliage. In the 3rd stage I added even more jungle leaves and vines. Next I will use colored pens to define the images. After that, it will be time to trapunto & quilt.	February Update: 1st painting stage painted as instruction piece during classes at El Costurero in San Jose, Costa Rica
