Monoprinting from a ceramic tile

Journal quilt, March 2019, Brexit 3

Twenty seven different yellow fabrics in fourteen foundation-pieced triangles. Inserted, with curved piecing and appliqué,  in to a rather crumpled and tired looking background. Union Jack fabric at the bottom, tea-stained and of nondescript shape, dissolving into tattered threads at the far right. ( This is straight - unlike UK politics, just distorted by the medium - like UK politics).

Two walks, two days

Trying to keep hope alive.

Stitchers against Brexit chaos

I'm ready: flat shoes, water bottle, smile, Beuret, stickers, voice.............................

Never trust red fabric

Finding joy in colour - need to find it somewhere
