For the last few days, I have been showing some of the art that I enjoyed at the Ny Carlsberg Glyptotek in Copenhagen.
In the Greek/Roman section, I came across a carving that was a wealth of new Free-Motion Quilting Designs!!
This was the carving…..
….and no, it doesn’t look like much!!!
But, as I looked closer, I found so many fun designs…..
What about columns of curvy lines mixed in with swirls or rosettes?
This is a simple cross-hatch but I sometimes need to be reminded that simple is GOOD!!
And this medallion would fit into many open areas……
These flowers remind me of some filler designs that I have used before……
But the designs that I liked best were these feathers…..
…..or how about these feathers and fringe……
This reminds me of a simple stipple……
….although it might be interesting to divide the open space into sections and stipple each a bit differently!!
Anyway…..I truly enjoyed picking apart this fairly dull carving to find lots of new designs!!
Tomorrow we will look at some of the sculptures in the Glyptotek……come back!!
