Mosaic Inspiration

Many times quilting inspiration can come from other art forms.

Have a look at this Mosaic from Ray Aquilina…..

Wouldn’t it be fun to make a quilt in this style.

I have often thought about turning this photo into a quilt and this style might do the trick…..

What do you think? Would this work??

Malmo Window

When we were in Sweden last October, I saw this window and immediately thought…..QUILT!!!!

Of course, there isn’t much that doesn’t make me think QUILT!!

BUT, wouldn’t it be fun to make strip sets and then place them in this type of orientation?

There are definitely some exciting possibilities here!!

.

What was your last quilt inspiration?? 

Speaking of Malmo…..come back on Saturday and Sunday and I will finish up my “travel photos” from the Sweden trip!!

One of my favorite things about quilting is motivating others and helping them in their quilting journey. As part of this endeavor, I LOVE to present programs and workshops to groups and guilds around the world. All of my programs work well with Zoom meetings, and I would love to speak to your group.
