I took a few photos this evening, most of them are up on facebook.
I love Aggys it means summer to me.
I mentioned the other day that I have a schedule for myself the "Bayeux Discipline" well I'm not too disciplined, because I want to work on it right now.
I'm just itching to begin, but I can't, I have 3 other things to set up first. The tea bags designs, The Dublin Quilt, Disruptive Design and 'My America' quilt.
The Bayeux quilt is 268 feet long and from every 9 feet section, I have chosen an image to put into a small quilt with the pattern for the book.
That's 25 in all. This quilt is very traditional. (although in Birmingham they said it was pictorial)!!!!
It's traditional machine applique.
But the small quilts will be far from traditional.
Some will be embroidered, some illustrated, some textured and surface design.
I have a lot of genres in my repertoire and I'm going to add them all to the book.
You won't see the progress of the Bayeux, but I will share the progress of the small quilts.
I have to make one every week for the next 25 weeks.
So I will take the sketchbook inside and do the first pattern…!!
Stay tuned.
Aha! Now my memory is refreshed. You are really quite amazing. Such a feat to accomplish. Some point in the future, you should write a book about your life and accomplishments. I imagine it’s quite a story.
I’m looking forward to seeing your small quilts, teasing with the progress on the Bayeux! 3 other things plus Christmas before the Bayeux… what will you do with all your spare time? 🙂
Watch TV and sleep.!!!!
