    I've been playing with liberating quilting and a group of us are making liberated Amish quilts inspired by this new book: http://pomegranate.stores.yahoo.net/a178.html

    Here's my inspiration: http://www.pbase.com/brownsf/image/12255584 I'll use all solids for my next one, but I felt like being even more liberated this weekend.

    If you like Amish quilts, here are some beauties to see: http://www.pbase.com/brownsf/amish_quilts This collection is on display at the de Young Museum in San Francisco until June 6, 2010.

    Now to decide which one I'd like to make next!

    It pulls the eye in almost like an optical illusion!
