I’m reading the most fascinating book by Alain de Botton about how art is curated in museums and galleries. He argues that the point of art is to make us FEEL, showing art by time period is a nonsense, that pictures should be grouped by the emotion that the picture wanted to convey. It’s an interesting argument, illustrated by beautiful pictures throughout. Imagine being able to change bidder your mood then choose between the gallery about joy, or about loss when you visit a gallery. I want to visit this museum. My local library came up trumps again with an unexpected brilliant read #saveourlibraries #philosophy #singlegirlquilt #denyseschmidt #libertyfabric #johnlewissheets

Flatlay for #greatbritishquilter This is my #qgbiweekendwip from earlier this year as I made my #1718coverlet . Another fun prompt @sarahashfordstudio and @verykerryberry -who doesn’t love looking at pretty pictures of people’s patchwork?! I don’t want September to end! #imintheguild #appliquequilt

Favourite Quilt Quote for #greatbritishquilter You know how sometimes you have this amazing plan for how a block or quilt is going to look, then in that creative rush you make a bit and stand back and bam 💥 you just KNOW that it’s wrong, or it’s just mehr, but you don’t know what to change? You start seam ripping but it gets worse not better? You feel all antsy and out of sorts? Time to let it marinate! Leave it alone for a week or so and I always find when I go back to it I know exactly what to change! 💡 💡 💡Another great prompt @sarahashfordstudio @verykerryberry 😀🙌🏅
