Photographs 


I am currently working on quilts from 2 photographs.  One of a green turtle on a black sand beach was taken in Hawaii when we were there over Christmas 2010.

I am hoping to combine both of these photos.  This quilt is taking an ATC I made last year and expanding the ideas and techniques I used.

Here is the ATC.     

The second one is a picture of a Herring Gull from a holiday on Grand Manan Island.  That picture is blown up and ready to start work on.  I will be working on this one in a workshop with David Taylor.  It was a foggy day.

I don't expect this quilt to be finished in a hurry.












Well that is all for now.
Next week I will post a picture of the beautiful hand made book I received this week from my friend Suesara.  It is beautiful but also a challenge.  I am to use it as a art and quilting journal and she expects me to make enough entries to fill it by the end of the year.  I am excited by this challenge as it will make me stretch and learn.
I have had a doodle which I would like to make into a quilt called the Ghost of old Sewing Rooms for some time.  I think this will be the first idea I work on in my new journal.
