It's interesting reading the thought and process used in creating these works of art. I especially love how you finished the building piece with hand stitching rather than the traditional binding.

It's quite a lovely piece, and certainly suits the tree where you took your styled photo. Naming it is certainly a challenge too. You're designing with much more vision than I will ever attempt.

You can't resist taking a photo of a grid wherever it appears, and likewise of leaves and tree branches wherever you can find them! They could be your two biggest visual interests; grids and leaves. This quilt was an awesome way to bring them together. It's also very artsy, maybe the most artsy of your Four in Art yet, which like you said is a contrast to your usual modus operandi. Brings together some new modern structure with some love for leafy crazy Kaffe. <3Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13564065474454089244noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7348229552579672011.post-24521569624211681292014-08-03T04:26:15.378-06:002014-08-03T04:26:15.378-06:00Loved reading about your thought process here and ...Loved reading about your thought process here and seeing the end result-lovely!Camillahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17193180385628524129noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7348229552579672011.post-66758148419749084172014-08-02T15:49:38.324-06:002014-08-02T15:49:38.324-06:00I really loved reading this--your thoughts about t...I really loved reading this--your thoughts about the contrast, and then the process you went through.
