More Tiles

Most of the time I was photographing these more geometric tile designs I remember thinking how I would go about piecing these designs, then how would I quilt them...... potential for modern quilts abounds - and these designs are hundreds of years old. Do you think perhaps glazed tiles = shot cottons???? Paper piecing anyone?

Lots more food for thought - and once more no apologies for the number of photos, nor if I've accidentally doubled up on any. Just let it wash over you, then have a good look at some close-ups and you'll see what I was thinking.....

                 (Actually not tiles, but fits in with this post I think.)

All that, and just think we haven't even touched on mud bricks, domes, doors, carpets, ceramics or maybe some natural beauty to give our minds a bit of a rest........I'll see what takes my fancy.

 

Funnily enough before this trip blue wouldn't really have been one of my main 'go to' colours. I feel a blue collection will begin  as soon as I come off my fabric diet....

 

For now I need to get back to the flannel,
