Environment


When I was planning "Environment" I kept thinking about things as a whole: planet, systems, interactions and relationships. As is my nature, I tend to focus on some minute detail and my thought about environment eventually settled on a blooming flower. I decided to do a complete kaleidoscope for this challenge and was a little surprised that this was my first one in the series! I wanted to make this one without star points and more like unfolding petals.

It is my favorite kaleidoscope to date but I don't like this 16 x 20 format so later this week, on my blog, you will see what becomes of this one.

  2. I think it's beautiful Vicki.

    I hear what you're saying about the 16x20 format. That's the most difficult part of the challenge for me.

  6. Ditto on being thwarted by the size at times. That said, this quilt is beyond fabulous, Vicki!!! Reminds me of a passion flower on steroids (that's a big compliment!!!)!
