Ladyhawke said...

Just beautiful. I'm totally flashed.

Thanks.

MamaD said...

I love them all! Washington especially caught my eye. I have so many family and friends who I think would love one of these from their respective states...but no Washington DC? I guess they're not really a state...

Nicole said...

OMG, these are so awesome!

Unknown said...

These are so beautiful but...why is Tennessee upside down?

Unknown said...

These are awesome! I raise a few Rhode Island Reds and I think you got the personality of the bird right in the design! Love all of them!

Stella said...

They look beautiful, congrats on the show!

PS: The image for Alabama is backwards too. :)

Cindy,
You've outdone yourself. These are fantastic. You've had to do a lot of meadowlarks and cardinals haven't you?

Alex said...

I LOVE these! Your style is so perfect.

Mystic_Mom said...

Oh I would love a set of these for Canada, your work is exquisite, lovely and jaw dropping...wow!

Eva / Sycamore Street Press said...

Cindy - These are so gorgeous!

Jennilyn said...

Beautiful! These would make great quilt applique patterns-a whole new outlet for your art. If I were a book publisher, I would make you a deal! Just a quilter and admirerer (visiting by way of Luanna).

stunning. what a woman!!

Kim at Thistle Dew said...

Hi Cindy!

My mom picked up your card in Princess Anne, Maryland, and gave it to me! I just wanted to say "hello" and that your work is beautiful! I especially love the Delaware papercut, but I'm probably biased!
:-D
Keep up the snipping!
Kim Frey :-)

Shai said...

These are gorgeous! You make this looks SO easy to do. And thank you for the gifts of patterns of your own to let us use :)

Amanda @ Our Humble A{Bowe}d said...

I just found your blog and I love this art series! Is there any chance you'd be willing to share the Montana template?

The Alabama state outline is backwards.
