Every Single Day



This quilt speaks to what I can only aspire to experience every single day; a quiet moment with a nice cup of tea. My attempt was to keep this piece simple in design as well as in color palette. Personal references were injected via an oil stick rubbing over heavy lace fabric (a curtain that hung in my childhood home) as well as an appliqué featuring my mischievous starling ( a bird who shares my home today).

  5. Lovely colors, gorgeous piece and the little bird again. My choice is coffee but I wish I had such a great little bird.

  7. So lovely to spot your little bird again. There is such a delicate feel to that cup of tea. I do like the texture of the hand stitching with the shading of colour along the bottom

  8. You evoke a wonderful sense of serenity with this piece (it's interesting that the quilt brought to mind exactly the same word for Pamela and I). You may call this quilt simple in design, but it is loaded with small, wonderful details and elements that make it really rich.
