Total Piece of Whimsey with a QR Code.
 

My monthly group decided we should tackle a Map Quilt as a small piece. I put it off as long as possible because it really didn't talk to me. Then there was a thread on this board about QR code Quilts. Intrigued I looked at it and decided a QR code was a Bit map. A bit map is a map! YES.
I got some really good help from a few board members here working with inchies and using the simplest QR Code I could create I produced a piece about an "imaginary land". Our older members will recognize this picture instantly as it was part of our childhood. Younger members with a QR reader should be able to discover the title of this piece.
Enjoy.

That is awesome!

How cool is that! My QR reader picked it up with no problem.

I don't have a reader, can you tell me what it says, i'm very curious.
p.m. me so you don't ruin it for everyone else

Nice and mine read it right away.

I guess I'm not old enough...I'd never heard of it. :( But I love the colors and the design!

Well, I'm the one hunching up my shoulders. I don't know what a QR Reader is? Think your quilt is nice though. Would you come back and tell us the secret.?

QR Code Readers are APPs for cell phones etc. They read the little extra info from the little square code that usually directs people to either more information about a product or a web site. They are the next generation bar code.
So the title of this piece is "The Land of Counterpane" A poem written by Robert Louis Stevenson, and was found in a lot of children's nursery rhyme books. This particular drawing came from "A Child's Garden of Verses". Its not a photo, its a gel transfer.
The poem begins " When I was sick and lay abed, I had 2 pillows at my head...... "
