I was asked to make a quilt for the Region 4 section of In the Spotlight at the Festival of Quilts.
My inspiration came from the song “The Windmills in Your Mind”. The Leaves depict the line “the autumn leaves were turning to the colour of her hair, like a circle in a spiral, like a wheel within a wheel, never ending or beginning on an every spinning reel”.
This is to me, a very romantic song. I have tried to convey some of the images I see while listening to the lyrics.
The quilt is machine pieced, with raw edge appliqué and quilted using a Bernina 1230 machine.
