Looking at patchwork of blocks of fabric a quilter bought at the Paducah show recently set off a firing of neurons in my brain. Poetry blocks. My poetry on blocks of my favorite colors of fabric. A quilted book. An altered (doesn't look right) page sort of. Hmmmmmmm. something to think about.

And looking at another site of a painter, sculptor turned fabric artist, I see a print (looks like a wood block print) of a woman--like an icon of some sort. Reminds me of Picasso painting of a woman in some odd way. I immediately saw it as a quilt or quilt like representation. It is primitive. It is folk artsy looking. It draws me to it.

Garden idea grows. Pulled fabrics out. Decided against L.W technique, because it is mostly painting on fabric she does, then quilts. Although she does some piecing too. Will use eichorn technique partially instead. I love it and have wanted to do another like it but combined with some of Katies too. Excited about doing this. Feel that rise within that signals ---JOY.

Finished Tim's quilt. It is gorgeous. Just wish we'd seen the mispelling before transferring it to the fabric.
