Everyday bloggings are too daunting for me. Surely I can manage once a week. That is my new goal. Over the summer I managed to make a second version of the Fabricator group challenge to create a playing card (6 of spades) in the manner of a famous artist. I gave the first 'card' to my dad for his 75th birthday only to find the group of 'cards' was to be displayed in various venues in the coming year. I am happy to have this hanging on my beige walls.We just decided today that our next group project is 'Portals'. With so many fantastic doors in so many styles it is tempting to do a literal interpretation. I'm intrigued with Frank Lloyd Wright's glass doors but like the idea of working with a palette of fresh fun colours and creating a wonky batch of doors.I have inevitably reached the City and Guild's assignment in Module 2 to quilt the kiwi mosaic pictured in my June blog. I've decided to lay a fine, white netting with a smidge of iridescence over all the mosaic tidbits. Now to find the quilting plan I decided on in June!I couldn't resist posting this fun little log cabin block, also for C&G.
