When this blog first began, it featured all things quilty and was titled Art From The Heart. Years go by, interests morph, horizons expand, and all of a sudden you realize you are a quilter, yes...but also a spinner, weaver, knitter, crocheter, mixed media, fiber artist. The art is still from the heart, but the new name reflects my excitement with all things fiber! It's Fantabulous!
I love my osprey! Yes, even if I do say so myself. What a fun, experimenting, learning quilt to make. Somewhat scary, too, having to make the pine needles right on the almost completed quilt...
I am having SO much fun! I find the biggest challenge is 'pacing' myself-I want to do everything all at once. I have no problem interrupting myself and current project when a new technique is presented in an article, or I see something on a blog that sparks an idea in me, or something in nature says, "Try and replicate this, lady"!
I can only second that - making art quilts is a lot of fun ;-)) Enjoyed browsing through your blog and will come back for sure. Can't wait to see what you're up to next !
Frauke, I try to 'check out' the blogs of those that comment, as a return courtesy...and I am SO VERY glad I went through your blog! I was so excited to see Winter Puzzle, as I have done 2 puzzle type wall hangings. And I have a little mod piece that seemed to lack something, I had considered adding beads to the bottom...and there were beads hanging off Winter Puzzle! I almost hyperventilated over the rubbings and 9 patches-I learned so much from you today. Thank you!
Hi Lindy, I love this quilt and so detailed. Isn't making art quilts fun? TD
