Beneath the Southern Sky still travelling

I received an email recently about the travelling exhibition of banner quilts for Beneath the Southern Sky. I was lucky enough to have my work accepted for this and am always excited to hear about its travels around the world.  I would LOVE  to go to the Festival of Quilts in Birmingham, in the UK and see it in August but, alas, will not be able to.  Here are a couple of links to some of the showings of the works. (Smilebox, American Quilters Society)
It is even going to South Africa - oh to be able to go and see them in another country.  I saw them twice in Australia, at the AQC and the Craft and Sewing Show last year but it would be even more special to be able to see them internationally.
I am so grateful to Brenda Gael Smith for organising the exhibition and putting in all the hard work to have it shown in so many venues. I am still amazed at the fact that I am in an exhibition with so many wonderful textile artists.

My piece in the exhibition was inspired by eucalyptus trees and their wonderful trunks.  I am still taking pictures of trees and branches, fallen or on the trees!  (Just look at my last couple of posts.) There seems to be a theme here.

Pictures from my phone

Well, I have some more attractive photos on my phone now.  I was not sure what the quality and size of the pictures would be but I got some full, A4 sized prints from them.  They are gorgeous.  I haven't quite conquered focus but they are still good.  More practice, and more reading of instructions (actually, first reading of instructions) needed.
These are yet more trees from the park along the rail line in Rosanna.  I had been sewing for a few hours and Penny and I needed the walk.

Penny liked this one! 

Such beautiful trees make it hard for me to move on from my current obsession with eucalyptus bark.
