 My favourite thing would be to travel through Europe again.  I fell in love with Italy and in particular Venice when I travelled there some time back.  However, in 2023 my grand daughter went on a school tour of Europe and whilst in Venice she took some absolutely beautiful photographs of that city.  When the subject came up I asked her if I could use one of those photographs in a quilt for this time around, which she was very happy to do. 

To be honest it wasn't the easiest quilt to do as I battled with perspective (and straight lines) but in the end I was very happy with my piece.  I did simplify some of it as it would probably be too difficult to incorporate every minute piece but I was very happy with the end result.

  1. This is a really lovely piece and the way you have managed to recreate Emily's photo is very clever with just enough quilting to enhance each area. The reflection in the water is brilliant. Rosemary
