Making a start…..

I’ve got to admit I’ve found the Isaac Newton challenge a difficult one to get my head around but at last I’m making a start.

Although I love doing my “tree” quilts I didn’t want this one to be all about that tree!  So how about the planets?  Or maybe Newtons cradle?    I still wasn’t feeling it……..and then in an attempt to help me see things differently Pat Cave asked me to consider “what excites you”?  Straight away the answer came……texture and line.  Suddenly I knew exactly what I was going to do!

My chosen fabrics

My fabrics are fairly monotone but the overall effect will be very linear with various different textures added including metallic threads and metal trims…..at least that’s the idea!
