Your quilt has a lot of visual texture with the prints, ricrac etc. that make it very interesting. Hope you enjoy the year with Four-in-Art.

From my untrained point of view, your piece does a good job of reflecting your intentions. Have you settled on your next piece of literature? I'd be all over Outlander, if it was up to me. Popular, timely, with lots of Scottish possibilities. Before you know it, your new sewing studio will have a wall of these pretties.

I have just checked out the others. Such fun contrasts between your very dramatic and modern looking piece and those inspired by poetry and Jane Eyre!

(Have you thought about your next projects? Another "first" you could use is the Gutenberg Printing Press) As a graphic designer I have a total fascination for text printed on fabric, and I love all your different combinations you have used in your composition. I look forward to seeing your future projects with Four in Art.

I think your idea of pulling out elements and arranging them to intimate the Rosetta Stone is an intriguing and clever way to get at all that the Rosetta means to us. I love the use of text prints, the elements, and even that little red rickrack trim. Bravo! Susan and an eloquent first run at our theme of Literature. (You are a natural, I think. Can't wait to see what you think of next!)<br /><br />ElizabethOPQuilthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08622702911207665333noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7230998891034875551.post-36821776896499613792015-02-02T05:30:02.274+11:002015-02-02T05:30:02.274+11:00What a great interpretation!!

I remember seeing it in the British Museum and being overwhelmed at the significance of it. The way that you brought together the different symbols and texts really speaks to the Stone itself.
