WIP Wednesday, "Side Dish"

This bento box pattern I made very early in my quilting career looked kind of like a spring salad to me, so I called it "Side Dish".

I was very moved by this piece and its meditation on protection and loss.

WIP Wednesday, Love Drops

You may remember that I was working on this old WIP this weekend called "Love Drops".  I believe this kind of quilt is called a "confetti" quilt - it's made from the tiniest oddments of scraps - in this case, all red ones, leftover from Saucy Divo.

Sometimes, the things that inspire me are not quilts at all. Sometimes, they are colours, or emphemera captured by a camera; sometimes its a piece of history; most often, it's a feeling.


All of these pictures evoke in me a feeling of calm, with a gentle (but strong) current, just below the surface.

You may have noticed

a distinct lack of Wednesday WIP.
