Maria never likes to talk about a new work of art until it’s done, but I urged her to do it this morning on a video. It’s just something stirring in her head, but some people have already expressed interest in buying it.

I saw these beautiful old vintage fabrics flapping on the clothesline with beautiful and iconic images sewn in – perfect inspiration for Maria.

It might be interesting for her friends,  supporters, and followers to see the birth of one of her quilts. This one has a great feel to it. I was careful not to push her into a zone where she wasn’t ready to talk. But it was well worth doing. I hope you enjoy seeing it as much as we enjoyed doing it.

It is just beginning, far from finished, and not yet for sale.  It’s still an idea; Maria loves those fabrics hanging on the line. She will make so something beautiful out of it; I loved watching the fabrics floating like a row of flags.

If you have any questions about it – no name yet – you can follow the creation of this quilt on Maria’s blog, [email protected], or by e-mail, [email protected].
