I like the design of the first one, but the colouring is a bit dull … but it is cloudy at the moment, so maybe that is the problem! Love the second design!

Posted on September 18, 2021 by Virtual Quilter

I like the first design for today. Almost too busy, but with soft contrasts compared to most quilts, and most art work of any kind. I like the second one too. Interesting use of colour and contrast placement in the … Continue reading →

Posted on August 29, 2021 by Virtual Quilter

The first design should be called Wattles and Gum nuts, but I liked it too much to just leave it in an unused project file, just because it doesn’t fir the file title. The second one fits the title, and … Continue reading →

Textile Inspiration White Out 19, 20
