riotheclownEclectic Gipsyland. This is someone who posted on Kaffe's facebook page. It all looks beautiful! I am really excited to go and wander around in her blog! I am also excited to see Kaffe has a show at the London Fashion and Textile museum. I only wish I could teleport over for a quick look! Some people (not talking about Rob Ford the mayor of Toronto per say...) like crack when they are feeling down, but colour does for my brain what I need the most.
I found a book of Kaffe Fassetts quilts a few years ago when I was in such a state of depression I didn't know what to do with myself. The photographs were of beautiful, multi-coloured quilts strew over crumbling ruins overlooking beautiful vistas: heaven in my estimation.
Imagine my glee to discover I could make quilts! Imagine my further glee when I found other people making quilts!
So far I have made only four but it has lead me on a visual cruise of delight: Fabrics! Right now everything is being eclipsed by working on my daughter's wedding. I am scrounging around recycling stores for pure cotton, white top sheets that can be used for table cloths. I have a secret: I am going to learn how to dye fabrics so I can use them for my quilts. Exciting no? YES!
