Thanks for leaving Jalynne's post on for me. It seems to have gone missing.
Your quilts are spot on, and very verbose! They could give my quilts a few
lessons on how to be joyful, colorful and deep.
:-)
Now to Jalynnes quilts. Yes, thats just what I was going for. Your quilts
are pretty verbose as well! Are you sure they arent just saying.... send me
to Di?
I think that Jalynne and cas need to work together to design a quilt that
shows the best of each of you. It would be interesting to say the least.

ok (leaving J's post in seeing as Di didn't get it) - now I have to think
bout this
The real me quilts usually have black backgrounds although some have other
colours (usually solids though) and bright colours that stand out more cos
of the black. Sometimes the backgrounds seem to overwhelm the quilts (to
some people anyways) and I s'pose that's the part that shows what people
usually see of me - conservative and boring - but then the colour jumps
out
and whacks you when you're not expecting it - just like me stirring up
trouble when people least expect it. I s'pose the shapes (usually diamonds
and hexagons and occasionally interlocking circle shapes) show my more
logical and analytical side - takes a few close inspections to see the
smaller shapes making up the larger obvious shapes.
ohhh .. and the black backgrounds don't show the quilt inspector's trail
(black poodle hair) so that's the practical side of me.
And my kaleidoscope keeps screaming at me to finish it cos it's decided on
it's own name (will be my first quilt with a name) and wants to be
introduced into society as soon as possible. (show off that it is)

At first glance, one would think that the quilts i make for myself
(which
no one has
actually seen yet, since they're either in the works or design phase)
are
plain and
boring, but when you look closer, you can see that there is much more
than
meets the
eye at first glance. I'm a lot like that. Full of character and fun.
I'm simple,
yet complex. I am conservative and traditional, but like the occasional
splash of
the unexpected. The quilts i make for others say something about me,
too.
It says
that I love them so much, that I will set aside my personal preferences
to
make
something that I know they will cherish. Is that was you were getting
at,
Di?

After looking at the newest creation by Wendy (frood) and the
beginnings
of
another Jalynne and I discussed the topic, do our quilts reflect who
we
are?
Im not talking about the quilt that we made for Aunt Mabel in shades
of
plum
and puce geometrics cause thats what she asked for to go with her
newly
decorated bedroom... but the ones we make for ourselves, to satisfy
our
inner creative urges.
If your quilts could talk, what would they say about your personality?
Diana, going now to take all the pictures of her quilts off yahoo. ..
kidding.. lol
