working on sanctuary

Now that the studio is cleaned, I can finally get some work done. About a month ago I joined a group of art quilters called 12 Connected. Over the course of the next two years, we are going to do twelve art quilt challenges and post our results online.

The first one was announced at the beginning of December and the theme is Sanctuary. I decided to do a piece honoring writing since that's where I find peace of mind and it is, for me, a true sanctuary.

Below is a sneak peek of a part of the quilt. I just did a post over on the group's blog explaining my piece as well as posting a different detail shot. Hope you'll follow along with us, we're just getting started and its a very talented group of artists so its sure to be fantastic!
