Occasional ramblings

Just a few thoughts or notes on ongoing projects.

New quilt - Postcards from Cape Verde

2/5/2017

We had a week in Cape Verde in January.  A real "fly and flop" holiday, and it was great.

I took lots of photos - just on my phone - and have been looking through them.  It occurred to me that they would make great postcards, so an idea has been fermenting for a new quilt.  This would be a one-off, although I generally seem to work in a series, or at least with an ongoing theme.  This will be just for fun.  So watch this space..........

Here are a few of the postcards in their raw state - untrimmed etc.  I know I am going to stitch them around a map of the region.

The people are delightful and very attractive.  We were staying within sight of the jetty where small fishing boats are constantly landing fish - lots of tuna.
