First, I *adore* this! The colors are gorgeous. I see bamboo trees in a jungle.

I *love* the idea of doing a quilt of books! I work for an author, and her books come in candy-shop colors. I might just use my bookshelf as inspiration for my next design!

That's the beauty of abstract art--it says all kinds of things to each person! I LOVE THE QUILT!

I see a bargello quilt in your avatar? It's too small to see clearly. I love bargello quilts. They are amazing

Darn, I was happily standing on a city sidewalk happily looking through an old fence at another world on the other side! Bamboo would have the tops getting smaller quicker (not that anyone asked for my opinion... maybe sour apples because you ruined my fantasy!!!!) hmmmm, maybe quirking it this way or that is what abstract art is all about. It can be what you need it to be. Some is good and can be quirked many ways, and some is without the lines/colors/movement that would allow you to see so much. Myself, I went into a big museum and saw a huge yellowish canvas with a postage stamp size square in a lower corner. Left me cold. Your quilt excited me. I won't say anything more about the fact that YOU didn't understand it was looking through an old fence into "another" world!
