Think of Dubai and you probably have images of mile upon mile of glass-plated towers.

Not only do I have a photographic record of this piece of history, but Madame – whose talents are boundless – has also made a wall-hanging, which currently adorns our TV room:

Lovely doors and Madame’s work is just wonderful 🙂
Neat doors, and Madame is very talented! That’s lovely.
She surely is.
I love those doors (such rich texture & color) and the quilt is beautiful.. 🙂
Nice doors and wall hangig. Good to hear Dubai saves some of its history.
Both wonderful. My compliments to you both.
