Every single day the tide comes in and out, people walk their dogs and people fall in love.
The graphic image really appealed to me, and I like the way the light reflects on the water and the sand flats that appear as the tide goes out. I only added the people to give a sense of scale and to highlight man's insignificance in the wider scheme of natural forces. It is mainly fused applique and I intentionally chose to use satin stitch to accent the curves and the graphic quality.
I love it!!
ReplyDeleteThis is stunning - wonderful!
ReplyDeleteI like the pacification of this quilt!
ReplyDeleteThis is a beautiful quilt. It gives such a sense of peace and timelessness.
ReplyDeleteI particularly like your clever use of text in the background, also the figures, especially the dog. A very calming quilt.

Lovely quilt and a great idea. Linden
ReplyDeleteLovely subject, the people was a good idea for sense of scale!
ReplyDeleteVery well chosen idea and I love the way you have interpreted it.
ReplyDeleteJulia,
ReplyDeleteThose tiny people (dogs are people too) wow!
Fantastic detail on a 15" x 15".
I particularly love the addition of text and the overall "mood"
Lovely.
Love the graphic nature of this quilt, Julia. The color selection is spot-on, too. Did you screenprint the words onto the fabric -- hey're absolutely perfect for this theme.
ReplyDeleteThe text on the fabric is a Lonni Rossi fabric I think. I have had it years and it seemed right for this piece.
ReplyDeleteAmazing fabric choice they work so well. I do like the way those figures show the scale of the water/waves. Such a tranquil scene
ReplyDeleteWonderful illustrated information. I thank you about that. No doubt it will be very useful for my future projects. Would like to see some other posts on the same subject!
