I still make Art Quilts

I actually made this quilt three months ago, but Sept. 30 was the date to post it on the
Quilts Around the World blog.
On that blog you will see many different interpretations of the challenge: Barcelona.
Everything from famous artists, to historical buildings.
Mine, on the other hand, is a personal experience of the time I passed through Barcelona on a journey that would change my life.

 Read about it here and from my journal excerpt below...
 and on the other blog to get the full story.
It's a memory quilt of a time in my life when I was indeed "Young and Adventurous"!

    Oh this is really neat! Such a keepsake and I assume that this won't be for sale. I love the collage effect, like a fabric journal. Very nice.

    Just a fabulous piece of work, all the more so due to the personal aspect.
