Slow
I may be eyeball deep preparing for this weekend’s open studio, but that hasn’t kept me from working on Celestial Celebration. In fact it acts as an impetus to keep on working. OK, working on Celestial Celebration is a much needed restorative break.

Steady

A slow, steady turtle’s pace suits my temperament. It allows me to both focus and drift. I develop a comfortable, confident rhythm when piecing block after block. There is just enough variety to keep me engaged.

Progress

Slow, steady work adds up over time. One row one week. Perhaps two or more rows the next. It doesn’t take long for the piece to take shape.

I am linking up with Nina Marie’s Off the Wall Fridays.
This really is beautiful!
Thank you, Angela. I knew as soon as I saw the photo, taken by my husband, that it had quilt potential. No to tease out the quilt.
the inspiration pic is dynamic and your work keeps to the sense of it
Isn’t the photo dynamic? Both my husband and I were struck by the backlit clouds and brilliant blue sky. He took several photos. I cropped this one to remove most of the extraneous details. Now I’m having fun interpreting it loosely.
All the best to you for your Open Studio. As for ‘Celestial Celebration’ — it’s beautiful, row by row.
Thank you, Margaret. Do you know the garden song by David Mallet? Several luminaries, such as Pete Seeger brought it popular attention. Your comment reminded me of that.
