This is my entry for this week's challenges at the Three Muses, "relationships", called "Love the One You're With".
This is a 6x6 inch art quilt made with more of my stash of hand dyed fabric, which I sun printed, then wrote on with white pen, stamped, stitched with metallic thread and finally foiled.
The one you are always with is yourself. I've always found that my relationships with others, be they humans, animals, and even the plants in my garden, are so much better when I am in good relationship to myself. This art quilt is my reminder of this personal reality.
Wonderful quilt, great colours!
