Quevaucamps


There should have been more paint on the cardboard but with a closer view the result is better

Quevaucamps


During Linda Colsh's worshop in Quevaucamps, a student gave me this piece of corrugated cardboard. I painted it with a roller and black diluted acrylic paint.

Nathalie

I am just back from Coxyde at the belgian North sea coast where I met Nathalie.
We knew each other through Quilt University and Dena Crain on-line courses since 2003.
But from a virtual contact she became not only a real person but also I discovered that she is such a nice and creative person.
In Belgium we have a problem. It is quite unbelievable for such a small country that we have to get artquilting contacts with Internet tool. All the small quilting clubs are so traditionnal: chatting, drinking coffee and eating cakes, following allready made patterns, buying expensive pure cottons and ZERO creativity goals
So, I invite all of you to visit her blog http://creativehours.blogspot.com/

My place


This is the Nanfurnal building. I am living on the ground floor, so it is like having all the garden for me (without lawn mowing).
We still have wildpigs, foxes, stone martens, stags and many visitors.
Welcome and enjoy

stone marten


Do you also have those stone martens living in your environment?
To-night she or he was just enjoying some peanuts on the other side of my door. Last year we had the daily visit of a fox.
I have to say that the building we are living in was supposed to be
a hospital for tuberculosis 40 years ago in the middle of the Ardennes.
I will post a photo of the view that we are enjoying.

Soul of africa


The suprise of this quilt done for the "Music" exhibition is that I have scanned a CD that was just like any standard CD.
Then it came out with different colors which were matching with the background fabric. Then I had just to print them onto the fabric.
The dancers and the CD are hand applique as well as the quilt
