Influenced by Gaudi

I am working on one of my Houston Exhibition quilts. I had two main inspirations - the mosaic above from Gaudi's Parc Guell and his paving stones design in Barcelona.

I made a thermofax screen of the paving design and printed hundreds before hand stitching them together. I must be mad.

 I am now in the process of overpainting the quilt using the mosaic as inspiration.

My Aurifil Threads have been ordered and I can't wait to start quilting.

Awesome Aurifil

 

I am so thrilled that Aurifil have offered to sponsor my Exhibition at the Houston Quilt Festival for my Jewel Pearce Patterson Award.

 They have even offered to supply sample packs of threads to my students in my Houston Workshops.

For a thread junkie like me - this is a dream come true and I can't wait to experiment with the gorgeous colours and types of threads in my exhibition quilts.

If you want to buy Aurifil Threads in Australia - check out Jenny Scott's site at Always Quilting for the full range and brilliant thread knowledge too.
