journal quilt

For CQGB I make a journal quilt (6"x12") every month. The idea I had was to make something with tulips the whole year through, but actually I got fed up with them. So this month I made something more suitable to the month of the year: dandelion seeds blowing in the wind. At the same time this journal quilt doubles for a challenge we have on my new group which was about spring and something new. Dandelion seeds are the beginning of new plants - most often in places where you don't want them - and they are a sign of spring. Here is the picture:

Prachtig die ijle paardebloemzaden tegen de donkere achtergrondstof!

Jeetje was ik een weekje weg en zie wat een productie heb je weer gemaakt. Leuk die pluisbollen maar ook wat je met je groenen hebt gedaan ziet er spannend uit.

I love the simplicity and elegence in this piece. The greys look excellent with the 'flowers'. :-)
