Remember to Look Up


After Thanksgiving, I took my cousin, who was visiting from Arizona, and a bunch of other kids downtown to look at the recently Christmas lights. In a recently renovated mall, I followed the strings of lights with my eyes up to the ceiling and was rewarded with this view.


This is a floor at the Westin St. Francis.


This is the corner of the mosaic work. I would love to use this as a design for the border of a quilt. I think it would probably have to be machine appliqued.

Here is some carpet at the Grand Hyatt. I like the way the spirals curl around each other as well as the way they are echoed with some additional curves a few inches away. Definitely inspiration for a quilting design.

  1. That carpet makes me dizzy, but hten again, the xanax is starting to work. I saw the block you made and left a comment down there, too. Thank you, dear crafty woman.
    Now to get away from the spinny floor photo, before I find myself face down on mine! *snark* C
