A record of an art quilter's life. The site name comes from Natalie Goldberg's phrase 'falling down the well' to describe the experience of becoming immersed in the trance of writing (or other creative activity.)

Inspired by
'Inspired by' is a competition run by the Victoria and Albert museum for adult learners. It requires constrcution of a pices inspired by an item in the museum. I was able to visit the small bu prefectly formed resulting display on Monday. I was the only one there so I was able to dump my handbag in the middle and take photos in comfort. Here are a few of my favourite - the slightly wonky angles are the result of trying to avoid light glare through the glass.

Awesome! The artists did a fabulous job of honoring the original inspiration, yet not being derivative at all. The bobbin lace inspired window blows me away, but teh wave is fantastic on so many levels.
Wow, what an interesting concept for an exhibit - where inspiration from another piece of art is acknowledged yet something original comes from it.
And your blog is NEVER boring, Helen!
brilliant, both the first and last pieces are fab.Thanks
