Alice's Current Projects...Quilts of Doom

The Infamous "Triangle Quilt" in Completed Form

So I am currently half-way through creating two quilts.  Both are entirely of my own design.  One is a creation for a chef friend of mine.  The cloth I'm using has onions, peppers, tiny forks and knives and cucumbers on it.  Unfortunately the whole ensemble has actually turned out to be pretty hideous.  I mean it might actually cause seizures.  The colors are so bright and the patterns so absurdly enormous and conflicting that it actually makes me feel a little bit ill to look at it too long.  Hopefully it can be used in a dark space where people won't be eating.  The second quilt I'm working on began as an attempt at a red, white and blue patriotic thing and now has become strangely French.  There is toile element that has kind of consumed this quilt...slightly terrifying looking little boys and sheep and such.  It still has potential to succeed but I'm not holding my breath, particularly because this is my second attempt at doing something involving the terrifying TRIANGLE and that's not really turning out so well...to be continued......
