I've been struggling to get good pictures from my camera. As blogland grows I see better quality pictures out there. You know the ones I'm talking about, where you can see every detail of the fabric- the grain-the stitches- the loveliness. I'm really not one to keep up with the Jones's. BUT, I do like a little stitchy eye-candy once in a while.
More than once I've seen someone make a photobooth out of a cardboard box, which is great except for the fact that you have to have a place to store the box when your not using it. So I decided to give this a try.Saturday, March 19, 2011

Map Quilt
that little spot is Tazmania, an island of Australia
and the start of my next project.
I love geography, cartography , historical books and ancient history. I've always thought it would be nice to have a map quilt to cozy up with while I'm reading about ancient times or far off places.
I am not impressed with the screaming colors of the fabric map below. So with some inspiration from fantastic map quilter Leah Evans , I am embarking on a new quilting journey. It will literally require me to stitch my way around the world :)
