The first
thought after announcing the name of the next theme was: “WOW! So many
options!”.
But these
options make it too difficult to choose just one. So, I've decided to write
down (as some of us also did) things which happen every day and list looks like
this:
- Day – night
- Food
- News
- Household chores
- Favorite things
- Love to different things
- We get older
- Beauty of the day: flowers,
sky, nature
- Happiness – sadness
- 24 hours – seconds, moments
What to choose?
That is the QUESTION!
I like to
make positive quilts; I like to use bright colors. So finally I decided to
choose “happiness, 24 hours, moments”.
After
choosing words I made colors’ choice. Happiness for me is only bright rainbow
colors.
Next step was
to draw draft.
First I've wanted to make 24 squares as 24 hours but it didn't feet in 15 inches. Finally I decided to use circle for 24 hours as time go on
and on.
The circle
was made as spiral from rainbow colors and is divided in 24 segments which symbolize
hours and time.
White and
black beads symbolize good and bad moments which happen every single day.
Thin
threads which end the circle are the time which disappears without being seen.
I weaved
background from different scraps to show that our life and every day consists
from pieces of joy, happiness, sadness…
And finally
“I WISH YOU HAPPINESS EVERY SINGLE DAY!”
What a beautiful, vibrant quilt - and so full of happiness! I love it. The bright colours are perfect.
