Sewhappy,
My son swears he has seen one.. His college house always had an odd feeling , don't know if the siting is from there, or his newly purchased house. Poor 27 year old newly married kid ! His 20 plus year old house has had two deaths in it.. a young boy from Lukemia and a sepparate family mom/wife from breast cancer.. Not the area, not the house.. just wierd.. Boy's family moved closer to the children's hospital. Woman get Breast cancer a lot.. so , don't belive it is the house.. I watch the show too.. Love those guys !! the ones that look to prove the hauntings !! Ellen |

Most of my not-so-weird inspiration comes from graphic arts.
"Simple" by Marko D (French), also a mid-century abstract artist. I have the fabrics for my adaptation of this one. [ATTACH=CONFIG]19660[/ATTACH] "Warmth" by Volk. This turned up in a cataloge of art prints I received recently and I fell in love with it. May do something similar in warm reds...someday. [ATTACH=CONFIG]19668[/ATTACH] Bridget Riley's "Movement in Squares", 1961, English. My quilt adaptation is in process in solid taupe and black. [ATTACH=CONFIG]19683[/ATTACH] |
OK Flying V you asked but you didn't tell us your weirdest inspiration!

There is a house down the road from my grandma's house, abandoned, and no one will live there and that house puts off some very creepy energy. Makes the hair on the back of my neck stand up. |

I took the pins out of my mouth to reply, turned around in time to see her go THROUGH the unopened door!
So on the quilt, she is wandering around in the sky layers. |
i have never seen a ghost and although it would probably be pretty cool, I have no desire to see one!
strangest place/thing that inspired or would inspire a quilt was the brick floor on my parent's florida room in their old house. I even spent quite a bit of time drawing outt the pattern to see how I could fit it into blocks but I couldn't get it figured out. I probably could now since this was about 4 years ago, but they have moved... :cry: |
Cissy, she is here
