I made this little "art quilt" piece for the first one.
I am not really all that happy with it, but it was a learning experience. Interestingly, it quilted up wonderfully. I wonder if the stabilization of the fusible on the back of the entire "top" made the difference. I am sure I will do some more art quilt play, as the quilt along is still going. Maybe I will try for a more organized, less "wild" piece next.
Oh and if you see an image (or images) in this abstract piece, I would love to know what you see.

I like your piece. I don't think it's wild at all. I like the colors a lot. IMHO?

Usually I am a very "traditional" type of person, BUT I really like this!! The colors all seem to flow - it's a nice piece Gene! Can't say I see anything in it, but I like it!! Good job :)
Blue and green jagged pieces look like a mount? Maybe a dragon hehe.

Stop by for my quilt givaway to guess my babys b-day and weight.
What's not to like about it? I love its energy! Very Kandinsky/Matisse......
Love it!! I see a woman swimming.
Gene, I have to say that I totally love your art quilt, it is amazing. I have found that my eye of (whatever creativity I have) does not go in that direction....I sour when I have to do an art quilt, yours is just absoutely wonderful....
Love it Gene. I don't so much see a particular image but when I look at it I get the impression of something floating or flying in the sky as a flock of birds would do.
i would, without a doubt, 100% hang this in my house as art. i think it's fabulous! i'm not sure what it reminds me of but i really like it. i like that i don't know and that i have to think.
This is gorgeous...and I usually am not attracted to modern or abstract things. I think I like the colors and the movement. You always have something to make me think!
I hope that I do not offend you, or that you would prefer to have an "award-free" blog, but I sincerely value your blog and enjoy it very much. I have nominated you for the "Versatile Blogger" award over at Lilypadquilting(dot)blogspot(dot)com. Thanks for being an inspiring part of my day!
Nothing pops out at me, Gene, except the gorgeous colors. Think I see it like you, a bit disorganized, but that's not to say it lacks anything. Being abstract makes my mind shift gears and try NOT to see anything. Just enjoy looking at it!
Playing with fiber....I thought you were talking about playing with whole wheat toast...LOL!
I like your quilt Gene....it takes a lot to even begin and I know it isn't easy to do. Nice job :)
