Finished Pat's Logarithmic Spiral Wall hanging - pix

I'll try posting this a third time....



I've finished a project quilt out of Pat's book Geometric Quilts. It was such fun to do and not so scary once i started . I've dedicated it to her! For a design experiment I used 2 pink wool challis fabrics for the background. It gave a richness of colour and texture contrasting with the cotton Japanese and batik fabrics. note to self: iron-on pellon does not adhere to wool!

Hi Bronnie,

I can see your three posts - sometimes some of mine don't appear and it is really annoying. The only way I can see mine and some others is to look at the archives. I have missed answers to questions on a genealogy group I belong to. Sometimes little 'nylon' gremlins stick their noses where they are not wanted.

Regards, Di

Hi Bronnie,

I should have said 5 posts. :>}

Hmm, odd isn't it? Sorry for all the repetitions then gals. Bronnie

Oh my, Wow, Bronnie. How gorgeous. I'm so proud of you and Patti, certainly too. Polly "Bronnie"

The batiks are wonderful against that pink, and the end pieces look just right. A real work of art! Roberta in D

I am, indeed! Can't wait to see what you will pick Estelle. Will you have it chosen for Malvern? - not long now! . In message , Estelle Gallagher writes

Bronnie, Your quilts are amazing. Do you create your own designs? Where did you learn to do that? I'm truly in awe of some of your art. It's gorgeous.

Thanks Sunny, I get inspiration from others/patterns/my head and try to figure out a different take on things! Maybe 'cos I live Downunder and everything looks different from here LoL. I am very naughty how I start with a pattern with no idea how the background, for example, is going to be done, like with Pat's pattern. I finished the spiral, pressed it, put in on my design wall and thought, now what happens next, girl? Most sane folk will have a final design figured out first. -- The biggest scary project doing that, was the Spring Lake quilt (in the webshots album), That was a sort of commission, and I had all the piecing done for the background without knowing exactly what was going on top (the cherry blossoms). I nearly had a heart attack trying to figure that out knowing the finished quilt was for sale. I have another project just finished that utilised the pink wool challis fabrics [which must remain secret until mid July.....] so that is where the background idea came from for the Spiral.

2008 is the Year of the Small Quilt - I'm doing nothing larger than about a metre square (39"). So expect to see a few .

Cheers, Bronnie

Thanks Sandy, it sure brightens my studio! I'm thinking I might gift it to one of my girlfriends if they can see a place for it in their house. Bronnie

Howdy!

Well, of course I do, Girlfriend, I see that place right here. I'll even send you a picture of the place before the quilt goes to it, then send an "After" shot, as in, "Here's my Girlfriend Bronnie's masterpiece in my house."
