These are some of my three-layers-mini-quilts showing letters so that they can be grouped to form individual messages.
They are 8 x 8 cm / 3,14" x 3,14", the letters are appliquéd, it's machine and hand sewing. Each quiltie has a small loop at the back, so it can also be fixed onto a pinboard for example.
I came across this quote here just at the right moment :-)
"Writing for the page is only one form of writing for the eye. Wherever solemn inscriptions are put up in public places, there is a sense that the site and the occasion demand a form of writing which goes beyond plain informative prose. Each word is so valued that the letters forming it are seen as objects of solemn beauty."
