Lovely Book Cover

I do not know anything about this book, but I LOVE the cover!

Good Question

If what the heart approves 

conforms to proper patterns,

then even if one's desires are many,

what harm would they be to good order?

Little Quilts

A bunch of keys.

Before:

and after:

and it still holds the coin for the shopping cart:

Small quilts can make a small difference! :-)

Haiku-Quilt

This Quilt shows my Haiku:

ICH SCHRIEB EINEN BRIEF

EIN STURM TRUG DIE SEITEN FORT

ABER ETWAS BLEIBT

The blue fabric in the middle part is more than 25 years old and I know from experience it will fade in time, and I welcome it, because I know some lovely blue will remain, just like it's said in my Haiku:

 something will remain after a storm has carried away all pages of a letter I once wrote -

I hope this quilt will look nicer and nicer with time going by!

(96 patches, machine- and hand-sewing, hand-quilting, 1,45m + 1,02m)

newly re-discovered

This is one of the paintings I made, it  hangs in a corner of my room and - although it's not small - I hardly noticed it for a long time. But then, sometimes,  I look at things with new eyes!
