I stood as far back as I could get in my studio and looked at the fabric I had just laid out next to my quilt. “Much too fussy,” I said out loud. Fate, sleeping in her bed, didn’t even twitch.
After sewing the pieces of my quilt together I chose the solid color it needed to hold it all together. But what to do next? I had an idea. Then another and another. But none were what I was looking for.
By the end of the day, I was back where I started.
But still, I did all the work that needed to be done to get to that point. At least now I know what I don’t want to do.
I love this!!! I’m sure it is sold I always wait too long
Thank you! I do have two people who have asked about it already. 🙂
I have thought a potholder quilt would be lovely. For me who wait too long on deciding even the beautiful potholders. It would be a collection all in one.
I kind of that something like that recently Diana. When I made a bunch of potholders and decided to make them into a quilt instead.
Maria, have you seen the picture of you in Jon’s blog today “it is all you “the creative artist in her studio with a cup of tea. I hope you or he frame it and place it somewhere in your house
I do like that picture Diana. It would be a good one to use for my bio on FB or Etsy. 🙂
excellent use of the picture
🙂
All of your work is shaping into a beautiful piece of art that is sure to keep someone warm this fall and winter season. I love the flow of colors and the border enhances all of them! Thank you again for bringing me on another creative journey! Your creativity has inspired me, I started working with my scraps to make placemats for my daughter for a Christmas gift
Thanks Josie. I hope to see your placemats when you’re done. It’s a great use of scraps!
So funny that the composition doesn’t suit you. My first response was, “stunning.” But my tastes have been somewhat influenced by Pacific island cultures, so I see water, flowers, sky.
Oh I like the way this looks Donna. It’s what I added on and took away that I wasn’t happy with. This piece is only about 3’x4′ not a full quilt yet. 🙂
