A string quartet performing at the Manchester Town Hall, at the opening reception for the Urban Sketchers Symposium. Tina captured me sketching them from the other direction. I wonder if the musicians really knew what they were signing up for beforehand, performing before a crowd of sketchers - but they were good sports about it.
More dimensions than the one: we have here in this universe;
" there are billions of Universes; but stuck in ours for now?"
Here it is, my finished string-quilt. I had so much fun designing and making it. At times it was a bit of a struggle physically since it is the largest quilt that I've ever made.

Workers busy preparing the kite thread. The kite string or the 'dorr' (pronounced as door), is made of crushed glass, glue, colours and egg applied on the thread to make it strong enough to hold the kite and cutting out the rival kites in the sky.
Here, in Amritsar, people are obssesed with flying kites in winters. Each Sunday of the winters witnesses spirits soaring high with shouts of "Ayi Bo!", which symbolizes triumph of victory after cutting the rival kite, penetrating the thick and foggy atmosphere. The kite flying season reaches its climax with the Festival of Lohri(celebrated on January 13 every year) when people from almost every household get onto their rooftops for flying kites with music playing high in the background. At night bonfires are arranged and people sing and dance around them as they celebrate the festival.
Variations. Preparing for an upcoming Zentangle demonstration, playing with basic tangles (to show that basic does not have to be boring).
Finaly a good day to take some photo's of this finished string quilt! What a beautiful morning with some frost, hoping for many more to come this winter! I finished this quilt in the last week of 2011 and finished the binding this week. I am very happy with the fabric choice, for a long time I was't happy with the fact that I bought the Hope Valley, did'nt know what to do with it. Until I saw this quilt made out of it www.flickr.com/photos/39332868@N06/5897170598/in/set-7215... It was just perfect for it! Thanks so much Angela for the idea!
I love string quilts and was so excited this challenge was strings! I had a stack of fabrics sitting on my cut space from a bee block so I decided to stick with that color pallet and jumped right in. I cut 1.5" and 2" strips off of 15 different fabrics and went to town randomly sewing them together. I then made a layout that was a little different than the traditional string quilt. The quilt was then quilted with a checkered pattern, except the diamond which was just outlined. It is then bound with a fun grey stripe. It measured 52" x 52"
I created Modern Strings in my home in Lanoka Harbor, NJ

Just putting my camera in the boot after a lovely day in Ilfracombe when I spotted this shot. I like how the lights lead to the misty headland in the distance.
