Roots


The key word for the 16" x 16" April quilt for Contemporary Quilt and Fiber Artists was Roots.  I knew what I wanted to do, but ended up doing the whole thing yesterday because the meeting was last night.  Sometimes, that's how it goes.

In my perfect world, I would have had time to add some yarn and beads, but I probably won't now since it's bound and has a precise look.  Maybe if I'd done a pillowcase finish.

My quilt was the most boring, and the most literal.  The most popular interpretation was hair roots, needing a dye job.  The second was family roots. 

I wonder what I need to do to be less boring.  Next month's word(s) is My Favorite Thing.

I like it. Looks "rootie" to me.
