Until this moment, it has only been my photos and
Photoshop work. No more, she says...
This is my 2007 Journal Quilt entry,
Land Forms #1, which is hanging at
the Houston quilt show. A description
follows.
Land Forms #1
The inspiration for this piece came while
looking out the window of an airplane. The
patterns and colors evident in farm land
across America are simply awesome. I sketched
for awhile and then later, put fabric to form.
There is an old tree on my in-laws farmland
that has been dead for many years. It stands
as though a sentinel, guarding the property
and family. I have taken many pictures and
include it here as a screen print, guarding
this farm land as well.

I really enjoyed your piece! I love looking at the landscape through the window of a plane. I think you covered the majesty of the land quite expertly.
Thanks for sharing

Oh, I really like that quilt. Looking down from a plane really does give a new perspective on life.
I like this a lot! The tree is particularly wonderful. Lovely lines.
Great Perspective. It is so different from above, we can see it as it really is and I think you have portrayed that well.

I, too, have thought the landscape from a plane would make a wonderful quilt. I love the personal touch of the tree.
