UNCANNY ROW

NOW YOU ARE GOING TO ASK JUST WHY I
THOUGHT TO NAME THIS QUILT UNCANNY ROW.
IT DOESN'T LOOK SUPERNATURAL TO YOU DOES
IT?  WELL JUST LOOK A LITTLE CLOSER AND
YOU WILL NOTICE THAT OVER HALF OF
THE CHARACTERS ARE HALF HUMAN, HALF
ANIMAL.  NOW THERE IS NOTHING NATURAL
ABOUT THAT.  MY ROW HOUSES ARE
IN A COMMUNITY WHERE ANIMALS AND
HUMANS ABIDE TOGETHER.  HOW FUN IS
THAT?  IT REALLY STARTED OFF AS A TAKE
OFF ON CANNERY ROW THAT
WENT ASTRAY....GET THAT? A STRAY?  
(maybe I better cut out the jokes or this will
be a long nite.)

ACTUALLY THE NIGHT MIGHT BE TOO LONG, THIS ROOM SPORTS A SHORT QUOTE " I JUST BOUGHT A BRAND NEW HOUSE. 

IT
HAS NO PLUMBING.
IT'S UNCANNY."
...Morey Amsterdam.

THE ANIMALS ALL HAVE THEIR EARS PIERCED

MY ROW HOUSES ARE CREATED BY SCANNING PAGE SPREADS FROM MY ALTERED BOOK AND THEN PRINTING THEM OUT ON FABRIC SHEETS.  I THEN FOLD THE SHEETS IN THE SAME CONFIGURATION AS IN MY BOOKS, BIND THE PAGE SPREADS AND THEN SLIP-STITCH THEM ONTO MY QUILTED BACKGROUND.

IN THE MIDDLE SPREAD THE QUOTE SAYS, "THE ONLY THING THAT SEPARATES US FROM THE ANIMALS IS OUR ABILITY TO ASSESSORIZE."

(If you ask why all those funny spaces
are in the above, I DON'T KNOW!)

WE HAD THE UPSTAIRS ON THE TOP OF THE BLUE ROW HOUSE AND THIS IS THE GARAGE BELOW.

ALL THE CARDS ARE INTERACTIVE AND
HAVE QUOTES ON THE FRONTS, BACKS, UNDER,
AND OVER,

I' LL SAVE WHAT THE BACK OF THIS CAR
SAYS
FOR THE END OF MY STORY.

YOU'VE SEEN THE GREEN HOUSE, THE BLUE
HOUSE, AND NOW THE ORANGE HOUSE. 
BY THE WAY THE FABRIC SHEETS WERE
PAINTED BEFORE I PRINTED ON THEM. 
THIS IS THE ONLY COLORED BOOK QUILT
I HAVE DONE.

THE BACK GROUND FOR MY

QUILT IS A WHOLECLOTH BLACK FABRIC AND IS QUILTED IN SCRIPT.  I USED THE LYRICS FROM ...

"IT'S A JUNGLE OUT THERE."   

Remember Monk?   

THE QUOTE FROM THE BACK?...........

"EVERY WOMAN SHOULD HAVE FOUR PETS IN HER LIFE.

A MINK IN HER CLOSET,

A JAGUAR IN HER GARAGE,

A TIGER IN HER BED,

AND A JACKASS WHO PAYS FOR

EVERYTHING."      ...PARIS HILTON

THAT'S ME...KEEN AND PERCEPTIVE,

AMEN...REDFOX
