What do you see in this quilt?
 

Hi!
My first quilt post here:)

I completed this in April.
I have an image in mind when I did this. I wonder if it is protrayed across.
What do you see in this quilt? Comments are welcome!

My first thought was sprouts popping up from the earth. It's a beautifuly quilt, so vibrant and full of life.

Books on a shelves.

Sorry not a thing. Never was good at abstract art. Lovely colors though.
Will watch for other replies as you have my interest.

Layers of earth and lovely green plants coming up. Gorgeous nature colours of trees and grasses.

I see crosses and also trees. I also see small lamps. Well, I looked again and I see a Tiffany Lampshade. beautiful!

A jungle! Its beautiful. Welcome to the board!

looks like a bookshelve

I thought reeds swaying in the breeze!! Tell us what it was you saw! Welcome to the board!

First of all, welcome aboard a very fun board! As for your quilt, I have next to no imagination... it looks like "nature" to me. But I LOVE IT! It could also look like stained glass. But, whatever it's "supposed" to be, it's fabulous!

I see Bamboo :)

Lovely quilt! Even if my vision is different - but that is what makes art so wonderful.

Plants, sprouts, nature, yes! Reeds, sugarcane fields, yes!
Bamboo. Bingo!

I have in mind a bamboo forest. All different shades of green. The horizontal represents the glimpse of sky and earth through tha gaps of the bamboo. The bottom is a mulch of pebbles and fallen leaves.

Thanks so much everyone for your encouraging words!!!
After working for so long in isolation, it feels so good to be among like-minded people :)

Hm, first thing that comes to my mind is the Everglades, or a rain forest. Maybe even books (horticulture, of course :-)

best,

I see the forest from the trees... I really like what you did.

Welcome! Glad to have you? Hmmm what do I see, something that would look great in my home? LOL I see small trees (I call them treelings). Or a bookshelf with books bound in greens and browns. I love it no matter what it is.

Welcome from Ohio! Your quilt is beautiful! Very organic!

It reminds me of bamboo. Whatever you had in mind, it is a beautiful quilt. Thanks for sharing.

Hmmm. I see quilts on clotheslines made with pulleys, in a jungle of bamboo.

I think of bolts of fabric on a shelf! It's gorgeous! I love it! Now my curiousity is up though, what was the image in your mind?

I see shelves filled with wonderful books!

You ladies give me so many wonderful ideas - books on a shelf, Tiffany lamps!

I had bamboo forest in mind when I made it.

It is wonderful, so many lush colors. Trees, trees and more trees. I love it.

Lots of celery sticks! Can you tell Im on a diet?

Yes, it is like bringing the outdoors into the living room!

Hahaha...!

welcome from NE Ohio. Your quilt reminds of the bamboo that grew behind my aunts house.

Looks like someones stash all folded and lined up.

i love the colors so I see beauty first, then if pressed, I see stratas of ground and plants

Seaweed waving in the waves. Beautiful quilt and welcome.

over the river and through the woods!

Lovely colour work. Great image interpretation.

I do not know what you wished to express but the richness of your colors and beauty of your fabric combine to make a wonderful artistic design that seems very organic and expresses - to me, a lush and verdent scenerio.

Thank you

It makes me think 'jungle' Its very striking.

My first thoughts are of grasses in abundance.
Its neat

Fairy lights in a forest? It's lovely!

books on a shelf

I thought of fabric on a shelf, waiting to be picked and put into a quilt.

Early morning sun on my garden...

First impression was a Gees Bend quilt. Love it! Striking, great colors

I see all your fabric lined up on shelves. love it joyce j
