The Earth Day Quilt is finished!
Actually, it was finished about 2 weeks ago, but my computer decided to go crazy, so...
I named it "A Celtic Blessing" because the inspiration had come from a poem from John O'Donohue (see detail of poem in earlier post). I can still hear his soft, lilting voice reciting this when he was in town a few years ago, speaking at Rockford College. Interesting, full-circle thoughts: the Earth Day event that I created this for was also at the college. Lots of compliments - that always feels good...
Side note - I sold two smaller pieces at the celebration: "Pinned"~a small goddess quilt, and "Breaking Forth with Color"~a piece representing native grasses...they both went to good homes!

I ADORE this quilt, Julaine. It's absolutely gorgeous, and, of course, meaningful. :D
Oh MY.... Definately amazing looking.... first glance and it definately hit me with the thought of the 4 elements. Great Job.... Love the colors!
This is lovely, Juliane. And well done for selling...and to good homes, too...what more can you want?
