12 By the Dozen

I have just finished my fragment(s) piece which I am quite pleased with - in fact it was a fabulous subject and I have so enjoyed doing it. I so look forward to each and every subject that comes up and I am enjoying the creative process so much - our blog has done so much for me and I am absolutely loving each and every bit of it. I know I don't put much up here but nevertheless read all and everything that is being done by all of you. The reason I have had to get my piece finished so quickly is that I am meeting up with my sister from New Zealand (also a quilter) and we are off to Birmingham together to spend 5 glorious days amongst all the quilts and quilting friends. Apart from Hilary and Phil are any others of you going to be there? If so I look forward to meeting up with you. I am then going to spend time with my daughter, son-in-law and grandchildren in London before returning back just in time to put my Fragment(s) up on our blog.

I had some fun recently after reading up on the Zen Doodles in Quilting Arts and did a couple of pieces which I will put up here. I think in the one I must have been influenced a bit subliminally colour wise as I seem to have gravitated to using the same colours as the one shown in the magazine - just goes to show how one is influenced, even by colours and we have to continually bend our creative spirit to doing what we want to portray.
