Quilting and Patchwork

Quilting the Outhouse!

by Mary Emma Allen on April 4th, 2008

 Quilters find many sources of inspiration, and pictures of unusual buildings often play a role.  In this year’s round robin for my daughter’s quilt group, each quilter submits a photo and the others design small quilt hangings inspired by it.

A photo of an outhouse has yielded interesting results.

Check out Beth’s Meandering Threads blog, particularly the post, Quilt Group Pictures, and see two fiber artists’ variations on the outhouse theme.  The group meets again this week, so perhaps they’ll have more outhouse designs to display…along with those inspired by other photos. 

What unusual pictures or objects have you used as quilting or fabric art inspiration?
