I wanted to share a small quilt I made for the "Journal Quilt" class I'm teaching at The City Quilter. The first class is on Friday, May 14 and I can't stand waiting until then to show it off to my students, so I'm showing it to you now!
The quilt is a combination of tape and an old paint rag.
And what about the title of this post? Well, I took the quilt onto to my terrace to photograph. The quilt is very lightweight. It was a windy day. Well, you can imagine the disaster that ensued. The quilt started to blow. I went to chase it. I should have put the camera down or let the quilt go and just float over the railing of the terrace. But, I didn't. Let's just say that the quilt, the camera, and I almost all ended up 17 flights down on 8th Avenue. I had to sit down for a moment after that and remind myself to be much more careful! Eep!
But it's just so pretty, I didn't want to let it go. Ah, the things we do for art!
Thanks for stopping by!
Julie, you must have an angel watching over you. Glad that you did not get hurt as well as lose your beautiful quilt.

Oh my goodness! Julie my stomach just flip floped at the thought of you going over the edge (that is totally something I would have done too) emotions first, logic hindsight!
It’s a beautiful quilt, your class is going to be awe.
