I sewed down the spiral on my Meditation Tree today. In the center I placed a small mirror. I tried some beads, and shells, but the little mirror brought a whole other layer to the piece.
I also painted the old hand quilting coming off the spiral. Just the straight lines making layers under the tree.
Next I’ll work on the space above the tree top.
It looks as if the tree is birthing the spiral.
The spiral is a sacred, spiritual shape in so many cultures.
I like that Kim. Yes, the spiral is one of the those symbols shows up all over the world.
Hi Maria,
Your tree is coming along beautifully.
I have started to quilt again myself. I love the white fabric on which the tree is sewn. What do you call it? Is it a random fabric, or one used more for a backing? I would love to know so I can get some and not seem like a fool to the women in the store.
Thank you,
Jan Hogan
Thanks Jan, The backing fabric is actually an old quilt. All that hand quilting makes a wonderful texture.
Ok, Thank you Maria.
Wow! So much energy coming even from the photo!
Thanks Sue!
