Gaudi


Casa Batllo (source: Wikipedia)

Although I really like the current theme, I had a hard time thinking of a concrete plan for my quilt. I have long wanted to go to Barcelona but so far haven't been there (and now that we've moved to Australia it isn't likely that I will be going there anytime soon).

One thing was clear though: for me Barcelona = Gaudi. So I started to google 'Gaudi' images and found lots and lots of inspiration. I used Pinterest to collect my favourite images on a Gaudi board - I can highly recommend this useful website!

I now have a plan for my quilt and hope to start on it very soon. To be continued!



PS Remember the album Gaudi by the Alan Parsons Project? I keep thinking of the song La Sagrada Familia. Here is a live performance on YouTube in case you don't know it.

I am not familiar with Gaudi, but I can see inspiration in the photo of that building and look forward to what you do with it.
