Directions

In my mind, I dont know why I didnt see the end results of this quilt. But it didnt start out like this. The squares were made first. I love the ducks. I used pink cause I didnt like the orange. And from there it took a mind of it's own. I love the hand painted fabric. It came to life.
Isnt this what we do in life as well, we start on a road and then are guided to the right road. And if listen to our hearts, we will find our path. Even by little ducks, who were just swimming around. Can you see all the other animals walking? I am in love with this quilt. Sewing to me is as exciting as photography. You truly believe you saw what you saw. Then you develop the picture and find a new life to it. Something you dont remember seeing. Sewing, is the same way. You start with a pile and then it becomes it's own life. I wonder if people who work with clay feel the same way.
