Inspiration shouldn't come from the bathroom when it comes to quilting, but it did. We've been having some bathroom battles with our three year old and we've taken to reading to her while we all wait for her to go. Her favourite book for this is an edition of Three Billy Goats Gruff that was my Hubby's when he was a kid. As soon as I got my package from Victoria I thought of the book. The colours of the fabric were bright and rich, just like those in the illustrations. So I took the flowers that are on nearly every page of the book and recreated them with the fabric. It's all fusible applique with a contrasting outline stitch to echo the notion of illustration.
Now, aren't you glad I didn't say I was inspired by poop?
