Inspired by Helen Godden

Last year I bought two of Helen Godden's drawings to hang near my Handiquilter Capri. They are so inspiring to me.

I hope you get to quilt today!

It's been a crazy year. We all know why so I have no desire to ruminate on it here. However, I have been really bad about keeping up with blogging, but no more! Back to three times a week: Monday is for inspiration, Wednesday and Friday/Saturday for projects.

Here are some gorgeous spring flowers I've taken photos of while on walks with my mom this week.

Snowdrops

Daffodils

Flowers I don't know the name of with a few Daffodils

Crocuses

I hope you get to quilt today!

And enjoy the spring flowers too!

Random Inspiration

This was the fabric on a chair in the waiting room at a doctor's office. I love the pattern.

A Greek key design on the bottom of the ottomans. Such fun! You could piece it....it would take a LOT of patience.

I love the shape of these pots.

I hope you get to quilt today!

I love how the pieces of this tree fit together. Could be interesting to do a quilt this way.

I love this pattern!

Flooring at the airport. There are some great textures in these tiles.

I hope you get to quilt today!

Minnehaha Falls Inspiration

My older son and I went walking at Minnehaha Falls the other day and had a great time. We saw lots of beautiful flowers including the ones below which were almost as large as a dinner plate!

I hope you get to quilt today!

Ukulele Inspiration

I was at my son's guitar lesson the other day and saw this set of Ukuleles. It's a great color combo for a quilt!

A curtain

I love the wood grain on the back of this sign!

I hope you get to quilt today!

Star Inspiration

This week I'm inspired by these stars. What if you cut a whole bunch of thin strips with fusible on the back and layered them like this, then cut out the star pattern? Hmm. I may have to try this. It would totally make a fun Christmas ornament! You could do it with any shape too. Or you could do stitching lines or decorative stitches instead of strips of fabric!

I hope you get to quilt today!

A Quilter's Sneakers?

No....I didn't draw on the sneakers! They came that way! I was tempted, but had already fallen in love with another pair when I saw them. They are totally quilterly however. They are the TRAQ brand.
