Whilst waiting for inspiration . . .

This quilt is called 'Depression' - created 18 years ago using hand dyed fabrics - apart from the border.  Swirls were handquilted in red - and the butterfly was the logo of a drugs company manufacturing tranquillisers. Glad to say I didn't have to resort to them at that time or since.

I think my quilting skills have improved beyond measure and I would have tackled it differently. A 'sister' quilt containing black and bright red - called "Panic Attack" - was (to my utter surprise) sold at a Cumbrian Craft Society Exhibition held in Grizedale. Did not take a photo so if anyone out there bought it - kindly let me know.
