I'm always looking for fabrics and inspiration. These bundles below were found in Hallstatt, Austria in a shop filled with locally made products. These remnants from dirndls will always bring me back to this place. I'm very grateful.

In Vienna, we saw many of Gustav Klimt's paintings. "The Kiss,"among many masterpieces, is part of the permanent collection of Winter Palace Belvedere.
I've seen my future quilts in his work.

Callan leads tours and creates artistic opportunities at the Georgia Museum of Art in Athens, Georgia. I was happy to help with a Traveling Art Museum suitcase for Kindergarten students. She filled my drawstring bags with Art prints and creative activities to allow each child a unique experience.
Meanwhile, here is Winky #7. He was made for Mariel's mother-in-law Ann DeYonker, commissioned by Rod, for their anniversary.

It's difficult for me to make blog posts. Where is the stopping point? Where's my camera?
Who looks at this? This journal page, made years ago, has become the focus of my next project. Organza printed photo is from a trip to Colorado, with hand dyed fabric stones. I'm putting this same quote in another quilt.
Here's my mom, Paula Pyle Baker, with her sister Suzanne Enzfelder. She's getting dressed for the rehearsal dinner for Mariel and Paul's wedding, June, 2013. I love this smile... Suzanne's love and care for my mom will forever warm my soul.

| Gran beamed throughout the festivities. Joy abounds. |
Rosie doesn't care for your quilts? Really? You know that because she never lies on them? If that's the case, I'd say it's pretty amazing, but actually pretty advantageous for you! I generally don't mind if one of my dogs gets on one of my quilts. If the dog is in the house, he's probably not completely filthy or wet.
ReplyDeleteBut what's a total pain is that I can't ever put any part of a quilt in progress on the floor or anywhere else for design purposes without at least one of my dogs, if not both of them feeling compelled to walk all over it, circle five or six times around himself and then make himself very comfortable right smack dab in the middle of my fabric or quilt blocks! Exactly where I DONT want him/them!
