Dear Ancestor



DEAR ANCESTOR
Your Tombstone Stands Among The Rest;
Neglected And Alone.
The Name And Date Are Chiseled Out
On Polished Marbled Stone.
It Reaches Out to all Who Care
It Is to Late To Mourn,
Yet Each Of Us Are Cells Of You
Our Blood Contracts And Beats A Pulse
Entirely Not Our Own.
Dear Ancestor, The Place You Filled
One Hundred Years Ago
Spreads Out Among The Ones You Loved So,
I Wonder If you Knew
That Someday I would find this Spot,
And Come To Visit You

Quilt of Italian Villa in process


It is taking me forever to complete this quilt. Lots of detailed thread painting. Of course I get obsessed with the thread painting. Sooo I take breaks so I can study what I am doing and make sure of what I am doing.. The ivy was a challenge and has several layers of fabric, painting and embroidery etc. Hoping for an inspiring result.

Oliver


Quilt,ARt

This mini quilt started out to be a professor, preppy professor. I made a hat was ready to put Bob the professor together. Hmmm the personality of Oliver appeared.

I drew the professor, created a hat actually fused the fabric figure to a back ground, creative thoughts appeared, he needed purple on his face and the hat had to go. Yikees!

I added lots of thread painting (free motion embroidery) Yarn, bits of this and that and threads for the hair ! I got the tie from my hubby's closet. I just used part of it and it is the under part of the tie! Shhh:(

After my guy became Oliver. I dug into my very big button collection to use as a border, with ragged edges.

SO much fun to make:) Do you think he looks like a professor?

Quilt Ocean 5

My love of the ocean, and my Florida roots inspire me to focus deep into the ocean, with my own funky visions। I have just returned from Panama Beach Florida with the white sand and crystal clear water। My son has requested a quilt with a beach scene for his new apartment. What an awesome complement. I took lots of pictures :) I also had lots of fun! Please visit my shop @ Etsy
