Somehow it went but phew its there!New camera is way too complex ..but thats another gripe (or change!!!!!)
My quilt is of DNA which makes the family....it was going to have hearts as well as the two symbols of what holds a family together and increases families and makes them stick....either love or DNA glues everyone together....
I also used colour , having the same thoughts as Jan colour representing emotion....but also the idea that some people are blue,calm and some are red,angry and jarring.I was going to quilt in overlapping circles in thoughts similar to Linda ...each family overlapping in community,community overlapping into countries etc etc.But I changed to lines sometimes jagged and stiff and sometimes mellow and flowing...
I still have to sew the binding down and the DNA is ribbon and needs some fixing..I wanted it 3D but its flapping somewhat.The DNA came from here http://www.csiro.au/resources/DNAModel.html and I made several paper and glue models..messy and sort of fun.
Cheers Bev
PS Thanks for waiting
Your quilt looks really good - I didn't even think of DNA!! Very deep thinker you are
