I decided to do a design for a door so went back to Art Deco and used one aspect of a shape and the rest of it is my own. It just evolved as I went along. Appliqued and quilted. I did enjoy doing it and had fun.
The group blog of eight quiltmakers and textile artists scattered around the world in 4 countries and across three continents. Our aim is to create a small quilt every three months. The theme is chosen by the members in turn. Our website is: www.12bythedozen.weebly.com
Wow, love what you have done. The brightness of the colours lends it self for a wonderful stainglass window. Quilting tops.
ReplyDeleteWhat an uplifting quilt. The colour choice changes the design completely don't they - from the formal sleek art deco black/gold. Love it. Claire

I love your brightly coloured interpretation of the art deco door.
ReplyDeleteWhat a clever interpretation of the theme - it looks like you had fun.
ReplyDeleteI like your design, and the colours you've chosen. It's a lovely piece Patricia. And your quilting is terrific.
ReplyDeleteOh, yes, I like Phil's idea about stainedglass window. Wouldn't it be lovely. Well, it is lovely as is but would be good to use your own design again.
ReplyDeleteI just love the design and the colours you have used .Each leaf has its own quilted pattern on it which adds great interest to the quilt as a whole and the background quilting finishes it off to perfection . It is a very lovely quilt.
ReplyDeleteI absolutely love this. The colours and shapes really appeal to me. The quilting also adds so much interest.
ReplyDeleteWow - exquisite, Patricia. The colours are so happy. The design is unique and the quilting of the back-ground is amazing! Beautifully done.
ReplyDeleteAmazing to see the source picture and the finished piece together, so different and so alike at the same time. As Alison says: exquisite. Great design and workmanship, Patricia.
