Auch dieses Bild sieht nicht so ganz scharf aus - es liegt aber nicht an der Fotoqualität, sondern daran, daß ich auf einem sehr unregelmäßigem und grobem Aquarellgrund gestempelt habe. &lt;/div&gt;Das Ergebnis sieht ein wenig "distressed" aus, was für den Zweck genau der gewünschte Effekt war. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Looking at this I can hardly believe that I carved the stamp myself. It doesn't look really sharp which is the result of stamping on a very irregular and coarse watercolor paper. The image looks a little distressed which is exactly what I had intended for this project.&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/33101013-7499180719225511581?l=dragonquilts.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://dragonquilts.blogspot.com/feeds/7499180719225511581/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=33101013&amp;postID=7499180719225511581&amp;isPopup=true' title='1 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/33101013/posts/default/7499180719225511581'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/33101013/posts/default/7499180719225511581'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://dragonquilts.blogspot.com/2012/02/damask.html' title='Damask'/><author><name>Angelika Westermann</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/05319727992399747779</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='24' height='32' src='http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_mG93sppW0Vo/SckXSlSAG6I/AAAAAAAAA_8/A6NjrImIiKE/S220/selbst.JPG'/></author><media:thumbnail xmlns:media='http://search.yahoo.com/mrss/' url='http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-eq8TY0PzqAE/TzfT4UqhMgI/AAAAAAAABkk/WP0HiBnozXk/s72-c/damas+stamp.jpg' height='72' width='72'/><thr:total>1</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-33101013.post-859610465038831619</id><published>2012-02-08T22:14:00.001+01:00</published><updated>2012-02-08T22:14:34.996+01:00</updated><title type='text'></title><content type='html'>&lt;div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"&gt;&lt;a href="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-QxekL8LwuKk/TzLi7GrlOfI/AAAAAAAABkc/PgUyS1Zbb7o/s1600/chevron+stamps.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="clear: left; float: left; margin-bottom: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"&gt;&lt;img border="0" height="188" src="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-QxekL8LwuKk/TzLi7GrlOfI/AAAAAAAABkc/PgUyS1Zbb7o/s200/chevron+stamps.jpg" width="200" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/div&gt;Ein - leider nicht ganz klarer - Abdruck der Chevron-Stempel, die ich geschnitzt habe. Die Möglichkeiten, die sich einem eröffnen, wenn man seine eigenen Stempel schnitzt, sind einfach unglaublich. Da kann man seiner Fantasie freien Lauf lassen. &lt;br /&gt;Derzeit bin ich dabei, ein Alphabet zu schnitzen (erst mal nur Großbuchstaben und Zahlen). Aber natürlich muß ich danach auch noch kleine Buchstaben machen... &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;These are the Chevron stamps I made. Unfortunately the stamped image isn't really clear. Making you own stamps is really addictive - the possibilities are endless. At present I am carving an alphabeth (only large fonts and numbers to begin with).

Eigentlich ist das Gegenteil der Fall. Ich bin in einer Gruppe "positive thinking everyday workshop" mit Dale Anne Potter, nehme an dem "Creative Explorers's Club" von Linda Matthews teil und schnitze Stempel mit Julie Fei van Balzer. Und außerdem nähe ich gerade den ersten Quilt, der endlich mal für mich sein wird. Und nebenbei versuche ich noch, in die Geheimnisse von Photoshop einzusteigen. &lt;br /&gt;Bei Linda Matthews habe ich das Konzept der "Vision Card" kennen gelernt und fange an, damit zu arbeiten, eine völlig neue Welt für mich. Gerade, wenn es um eher abstrakte Begriffe geht, ist das auch nicht ganz einfach. Für 2012 habe ich mich für den Ausdruck "Commit" entschieden, der so viel wie "sich verpflichten" bedeutet. Ich will in diesem Jahr einfach etwas intensiver an meiner künstlerischen Entwicklung arbeiten. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"&gt;&lt;a href="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-eW8QcU_wR60/Ty7eobPmvTI/AAAAAAAABkU/NectovdYxlU/s1600/vision+card+commit_edited-1.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"&gt;&lt;img border="0" height="320" src="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-eW8QcU_wR60/Ty7eobPmvTI/AAAAAAAABkU/NectovdYxlU/s320/vision+card+commit_edited-1.jpg" width="200" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;There were no posts these last months - not that there wasn't a lot going on. I joined Dale Anne Potter's group "positive thinking everyday", am a member of the "Creative Expolorer's Club" of Linda Matthews and I am learning to carve my own stamps with Julie Fei van Balzer. Plus I am busily sewing the first quilt that will finally be for myself. Did I mention that I try to work&amp;nbsp;out how to use&amp;nbsp;Photoshop as well?&lt;br /&gt;Linda Matthews introduced me to the idea of "vision cards" and I am trying to work with them which is a whole new world for me. Especially when dealing with more abstract concepts this prooves to be quite difficult. For 2012 I decided on "commit" which in this connections means that I want to commit myself to my artistic development.&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/33101013-3207146901271139614?l=dragonquilts.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://dragonquilts.blogspot.com/feeds/3207146901271139614/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=33101013&amp;postID=3207146901271139614&amp;isPopup=true' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/33101013/posts/default/3207146901271139614'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/33101013/posts/default/3207146901271139614'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://dragonquilts.blogspot.com/2012/02/viel-los.html' title='Viel los'/><author><name>Angelika Westermann</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/05319727992399747779</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='24' height='32' src='http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_mG93sppW0Vo/SckXSlSAG6I/AAAAAAAAA_8/A6NjrImIiKE/S220/selbst.JPG'/></author><media:thumbnail xmlns:media='http://search.yahoo.com/mrss/' url='http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-eW8QcU_wR60/Ty7eobPmvTI/AAAAAAAABkU/NectovdYxlU/s72-c/vision+card+commit_edited-1.jpg' height='72' width='72'/><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-33101013.post-6165167729407571724</id><published>2012-01-30T22:33:00.001+01:00</published><updated>2012-01-30T22:33:59.310+01:00</updated><title type='text'>Wie ist das möglich?</title><content type='html'>&lt;div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"&gt;&lt;a href="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/-kqWGtyOXIc4/TycMjhJTwsI/AAAAAAAABkE/Xp_yWiwfCzc/s1600/ABC.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"&gt;&lt;img border="0" height="240" src="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/-kqWGtyOXIc4/TycMjhJTwsI/AAAAAAAABkE/Xp_yWiwfCzc/s320/ABC.jpg" width="320" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Ich habe keine Ahnung, wie das passieren konnte, aber offensichtlich sind ein paar Monate vergangen, ohne daß ich etwas zu sagen hatte. Wahrscheinlich geht es auf das Konto des Lebens im Allgemeinen und Besonderen. Das Jahr ist schon fast einen Monat alt, daher wage ich kaum noch allen ein gutes und gesundes 2012 zu wünschen. Aber für gute Wünsche ist es hoffentlich nie zu spät. Und für gute Vorsätze auch nicht - demnächst werde ich wieder etwas fleißiger bloggen, versprochen!&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;No idea how this could happen, but I haven't been blogging for months. This must be a case of life getting the better of me. There is nearly a month gone from this year and I hardly dare to wish you all a good and healthy 2012. But is is never too late for good wishes.

Vor allem die richtig alten Kabinettkarten. Normaler Weise verarbeite ich nicht die Originale. In diesem Stück ist jedoch tatsächlich ein Original. Man fragt sich&amp;nbsp; - oder ich frage mich - was sich die auf den Fotos abgebildeten Menschen gedacht haben. Damals war ein Foto ja keine Selbstverständlichkeit wie heute, sondern ein echtes Ereignis, für das man sich gut anzog. Die Leute gucken auch alle sehr ernst. Wofür mag das Foto dieser jungen Frau entstanden sein? Sollte es ein Erinnerungsstück für ihren Liebsten sein? War es für ihre Eltern? Und wer war sie? So ein Foto ist ein wenig wie ein Blick durchs Schlüsselloch in die Vergangenheit, nicht wahr?&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I love old photos, especially these old cabinet cards. Usually I do not use the originals but work with copies. This piece however really stars an original. I wonder who those people were on those photos. At those times photos were something very&amp;nbsp;special. You dressed up for the occasion. Nearly everybody is looking very solemn. Why was this young woman's photo made? Was it a memory for her lover? Was it for her parents? And who was she herself? These old photos are truly like looking through a tiny peephole&amp;nbsp;into the past.&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/33101013-3667196833599923987?l=dragonquilts.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://dragonquilts.blogspot.com/feeds/3667196833599923987/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=33101013&amp;postID=3667196833599923987&amp;isPopup=true' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/33101013/posts/default/3667196833599923987'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/33101013/posts/default/3667196833599923987'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://dragonquilts.blogspot.com/2011/09/alte-photos.html' title='Alte Photos'/><author><name>Angelika Westermann</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/05319727992399747779</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='24' height='32' src='http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_mG93sppW0Vo/SckXSlSAG6I/AAAAAAAAA_8/A6NjrImIiKE/S220/selbst.JPG'/></author><media:thumbnail xmlns:media='http://search.yahoo.com/mrss/' url='http://1.bp.blogspot.com/-idkllfsngqA/ToHtnHBaMOI/AAAAAAAABi4/KCqK0hPKBIA/s72-c/SDC16447.JPG' height='72' width='72'/><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-33101013.post-6370038129562522425</id><published>2011-08-02T11:47:00.000+02:00</published><updated>2011-08-02T11:47:21.312+02:00</updated><title type='text'>ATC-Tausch</title><content type='html'>&lt;div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"&gt;&lt;a href="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/-03u1L7S-PY4/TjfDvbRRnFI/AAAAAAAABiQ/7QlGUOu8w_o/s1600/ATC+color+my+world+tan+1.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"&gt;&lt;img border="0" height="320" src="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/-03u1L7S-PY4/TjfDvbRRnFI/AAAAAAAABiQ/7QlGUOu8w_o/s320/ATC+color+my+world+tan+1.jpg" width="236" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Erneut habe ich an einem Tausch, der von &lt;a href="http://creativeswaps.blogspot.com/"&gt;Lenna&lt;/a&gt; ausgerichtet wird, teilgenommen. Diesmal ging es um ATCs mit dem Titel "Color my world.....". Es ist das erste Mal, daß ich ATCs ganz aus Papier gemacht habe (mit Ausnahme der Dekorationen). Bisher habe ich nur textile ATCs gemacht. Da seit längerer Zeit schon alles was "vintage" ist für mich besonders interessant ist, habe ich als Farbe "tan" gewählt, dieses sepia-ähnliche Braun.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"&gt;&lt;a href="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-IkNF6qC_cbU/TjfD-zqZ3QI/AAAAAAAABiU/r_x1I1AO4AQ/s1600/ATC+color+my+world+tan+2.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"&gt;&lt;img border="0" height="320" src="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-IkNF6qC_cbU/TjfD-zqZ3QI/AAAAAAAABiU/r_x1I1AO4AQ/s320/ATC+color+my+world+tan+2.jpg" width="239" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;This is the second swap I participated in, organized by &lt;a href="http://creativeswaps.blogspot.com/"&gt;Lenna&lt;/a&gt;. This time we swapp ATCs titled "color my world...." It is the first time I created ATCs mainly with paper (apart from the embellishments), so far I only made textile ATCs.

Sie haben ziemlich lange gebraucht, um aus den Staaten hierher zu finden. Aber das Warten hat sich gelohnt. Die Bücher sind wunderschön, jedes auf seine Art und jedes anders. Am kleinsten ist das Herzbuch. Eines ist ein Leporello, das ist selbst noch gestalten kann, und dessen Farben einfach wunderschön sind. Die Bilder können wirklich nicht widergeben, wie wunderschön diese kleinen Kunstwerke sind. Die Künstler,die diese kleinen Bücher gemacht haben, sind Catherine L. Mommsen, Linda Kunsman, Barbara DeLisle und Laura Hummel. Es gibt ein Video, das eine Zusammenfassung dieses Swaps zeigt: Little Book Swap.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"&gt;&lt;a href="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/-vnl9z_b0YR4/Tisgq6XLnlI/AAAAAAAABh8/G6u3LdQOYcI/s1600/Collecting-Thoughts.gif" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"&gt;&lt;img border="0" height="320" src="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/-vnl9z_b0YR4/Tisgq6XLnlI/AAAAAAAABh8/G6u3LdQOYcI/s320/Collecting-Thoughts.gif" width="294" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"&gt;&lt;a href="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/-iR8uOe9HVBw/TisimHsfo2I/AAAAAAAABiE/R1D4u_0xnwc/s1600/Leporello3.gif" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"&gt;&lt;img border="0" height="159" src="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/-iR8uOe9HVBw/TisimHsfo2I/AAAAAAAABiE/R1D4u_0xnwc/s320/Leporello3.gif" width="320" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;At long last my books from Lenna's swap arrived. It took quite a long time for them to find their way from the States to me. But waiting for them was well worth while. These little books are really beautiful, each in its own way and very different from each other. The smallest one is the Little Hear Book. One is an accordion book that I will decorate myself - the colors are just beautiful. The photos cannot really show the beauty of these little works of art.The artist who created these little books are Catherine L. Mommsen, Linda Kunsman, Barbara DeLisle und Laura Hummel.

Es sind ja nicht nur die eigenen Fotos, sondern auch gescannte Objekte - seien es Papiere oder dreidimensionale Gegenstände (alles geht, solange es sich auf den Scanner legen läßt) - die man hier verarbeiten kann. Digital Scrapbooking ist da wirklich nur der Anfang.&lt;br /&gt;Ich bin kein wirklicher Computer-Experte, und die ganze Zeit habe ich mich nicht getraut. Aber das Thema ließ mir keine Ruhe, und so habe ich jetzt eine Probeversion von Photoshop heruntergeladen und mit den ersten Schritten begonnen. Das allererste Ergebnis (siehe oben) haut einen sicher nicht vom Hocker, aber es zeigt, daß auch Dummies wie ich damit spielen können.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;"digital studio" by Somerset first showed me the possibilities of digital layering - you can really work with everything, not only your own photos, but paper and virtually everything&amp;nbsp; that can be put on a scanner. Digital scrapbooking really is only the beginning.&lt;br /&gt;I am no computer geek at all and I felt intimidated. But I just could not leave it alone, so I downloaded a test version of Photoshop and started playing. The first result (see above) is not a work of art, but is prooves that dummies like myself can scrapbook digitally.&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/33101013-3010496446386905701?l=dragonquilts.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://dragonquilts.blogspot.com/feeds/3010496446386905701/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=33101013&amp;postID=3010496446386905701&amp;isPopup=true' title='2 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/33101013/posts/default/3010496446386905701'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/33101013/posts/default/3010496446386905701'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://dragonquilts.blogspot.com/2011/07/digitales-scrapbooking.html' title='Digitales Scrapbooking'/><author><name>Angelika Westermann</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/05319727992399747779</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='24' height='32' src='http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_mG93sppW0Vo/SckXSlSAG6I/AAAAAAAAA_8/A6NjrImIiKE/S220/selbst.JPG'/></author><media:thumbnail xmlns:media='http://search.yahoo.com/mrss/' url='http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-k0B27oJxZCw/ThNBn9oIz4I/AAAAAAAABh0/fhJXRGKb5R8/s72-c/Digital-Scrapbook-1a.gif' height='72' width='72'/><thr:total>2</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-33101013.post-3698834635237441739</id><published>2011-05-22T16:08:00.001+02:00</published><updated>2011-05-22T16:11:47.376+02:00</updated><title type='text'>Minibücher 2 - 4</title><content type='html'>&lt;div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"&gt;&lt;a href="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-61AMPLPOK8k/TdkXnFG0OsI/AAAAAAAABg8/EJ180LZuBGs/s1600/SDC15371.JPG" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"&gt;&lt;img border="0" height="234" src="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-61AMPLPOK8k/TdkXnFG0OsI/AAAAAAAABg8/EJ180LZuBGs/s320/SDC15371.JPG" width="320" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"&gt;&lt;a href="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/-EcTg9ofNiAw/TdkXUDt7U0I/AAAAAAAABg4/dprjTunJzKY/s1600/SDC15370.JPG" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"&gt;&lt;img border="0" height="248" src="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/-EcTg9ofNiAw/TdkXUDt7U0I/AAAAAAAABg4/dprjTunJzKY/s320/SDC15370.JPG" width="320" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Inzwischen sind alle vier Büchlein für den Tausch fertig gestellt. Anders als andere Künstler - Lenna hält uns gut auf dem Laufenden - habe ich jedes Buch einzeln gestaltet. Eines ist komplett mit deutschen Briefmarken gemacht, ein anderes besteht eigentlich nur aus einem einzigen Blatt Papier, das auf besondere Art gefaltet und geschnitten wird und plötzlich hat man ein kleines Buch. Dieses Buch hat sogar kleine Taschen, in die man dann Tags einlegen kann. Die Sache hat sehr viel Spaß gemacht, und ich werde wohl noch das eine oder andere kleine Buch selbst machen. Es sind auch sehr nette kleine Geschenke. Naütrlich bin ich unendlich gespannt auf das, was dann aus den USA zurückkommt. Die Bilder, die ich bisher gesehen habe, sind einfach toll.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"&gt;&lt;a href="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/-74rjRPCOW6I/TdkX2UeUkHI/AAAAAAAABhA/iIVMWU0wYso/s1600/SDC15378.JPG" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"&gt;&lt;img border="0" height="234" src="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/-74rjRPCOW6I/TdkX2UeUkHI/AAAAAAAABhA/iIVMWU0wYso/s320/SDC15378.JPG" width="320" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;All four little books for the swap are finished. Other artists have made four identical book - Lenna keeps us well informed - however, I decided to make four individual books. One was made with German stamps, another was made from one piece of paper which you cut and fold and it suddenly forms a little book, which even has two niches where you can put a tag. This was so much fun that I will keep making the one or the other little book, especially since they make such beautiful little gifts. And I am truly impatient to receive my four little books from the States.

Kopf- und Gliederschmerzen, Schnupfen und Triefaugen dämmen die Kreativität doch ungemein. Daher heute nur ein Bild von meinem Adeventskalender. Das Teil hat mir meine älteste Tochter vor längerer Zeit geschenkt. Es war damals - und wurde zu meinem Geburtstag dieses Jahr wieder - befüllt mit lauter Kleinigkeiten, die ein Mixed Media-Junky wie ich gut gebrauchen kann: Kleine Spiegel in Vogelform, winzige Seidenblüten, feine Bänder, Perlen und ähnliches. Ich freue mich wahnsinnig darüber, weil dieses Geschenk so unendlich persönlich ist.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"&gt;&lt;img border="0" height="320" src="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_mG93sppW0Vo/TQezLr33XcI/AAAAAAAABa0/9mGLvwnME6E/s320/SDC14952.JPG" width="122" /&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"&gt;I am recovering from the grandfather of all colds, or so it seems. A running nose, headache and aching bones are real killers for creativity. Therefore I will show you today my advent calendar. This tower was a gift from my oldest daughter some years ago, and it is - as it was then - filled with small items a mixed media junky like myself are happy to have and use: Small mirrors in bird shape, tiny silk blossoms, fine ribbons, seed beads and the like. I think this is an adorable gift, since it is something very personal.&amp;nbsp; &lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/33101013-7751543874596903298?l=dragonquilts.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://dragonquilts.blogspot.com/feeds/7751543874596903298/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=33101013&amp;postID=7751543874596903298&amp;isPopup=true' title='1 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/33101013/posts/default/7751543874596903298'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/33101013/posts/default/7751543874596903298'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://dragonquilts.blogspot.com/2010/12/advent-advent.html' title='Advent, Advent'/><author><name>Angelika Westermann</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/05319727992399747779</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='24' height='32' src='http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_mG93sppW0Vo/SckXSlSAG6I/AAAAAAAAA_8/A6NjrImIiKE/S220/selbst.JPG'/></author><media:thumbnail xmlns:media='http://search.yahoo.com/mrss/' url='http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_mG93sppW0Vo/TQezLr33XcI/AAAAAAAABa0/9mGLvwnME6E/s72-c/SDC14952.JPG' height='72' width='72'/><thr:total>1</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-33101013.post-668754777975981337</id><published>2010-11-22T19:39:00.000+01:00</published><updated>2010-11-22T19:39:51.639+01:00</updated><title type='text'>Die restlichen Seiten von Rudolph's Erinnerungen</title><content type='html'>&lt;div class="separator" style="clear: both;

text-align: center;"&gt;&lt;/div&gt;Ich habe eine etwas merkwürdige Unternehmung gestartet. Ich habe angefangen, eine Art fiktives Erinnerungsalbum eines fiktiven Fürsten "Rudolph von Greifswald" zu erstellen - die Inspiration kam aus verschiedenen Quellen: Ein kleines vorgefertigtes Büchlein, eine Reihe von Collageblättern mit alten Fotos, und die Frage, was anfangen mit dem Zeug. Dann entwickelte sich die Geschichte wie von selbst. Da gibt es einen jungen Fürsten, der eine Liaison mit einer Tänzerin hat.

Die beiden Teile könnten gegensätzlicher nicht sein. Da ist zum einen der kleine Quilt, der von mir mit einem Übermaß an Stickstichen verziert wurde. Und zum anderen dann der ganz moderne Quilt in freier Schneidetechnik, der nur ganz sparsam gequiltet wurde. Letzterer hat meine Mann so gut gefallen, daß ich ihn ihm zu Weihnachten schenken werde. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"&gt;&lt;a href="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_mG93sppW0Vo/TNRVFsPCQFI/AAAAAAAABXU/JihX2isaLDg/s1600/SDC14649.JPG" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"&gt;&lt;img border="0" height="240" src="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_mG93sppW0Vo/TNRVFsPCQFI/AAAAAAAABXU/JihX2isaLDg/s320/SDC14649.JPG" width="320" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Two quilts left the house to be in an exhibition in Grünstadt. They couldn't be more diverse. One has been stitched upon with every stitch I could think of. The other one, which was done in a freehand cutting style, is quilted very sparingly. My husband loves this one very much, and he will receive it as a X-mas present. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"&gt;&lt;a href="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_mG93sppW0Vo/TNRVjhV-F0I/AAAAAAAABXY/7SAoHs9j1lU/s1600/SDC14652.JPG" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"&gt;&lt;img border="0" height="295" src="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_mG93sppW0Vo/TNRVjhV-F0I/AAAAAAAABXY/7SAoHs9j1lU/s320/SDC14652.JPG" width="320" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/33101013-8000172284047931780?l=dragonquilts.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://dragonquilts.blogspot.com/feeds/8000172284047931780/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=33101013&amp;postID=8000172284047931780&amp;isPopup=true' title='1 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/33101013/posts/default/8000172284047931780'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/33101013/posts/default/8000172284047931780'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://dragonquilts.blogspot.com/2010/11/quilts-fur-ausstellung.html' title='Quilts für Ausstellung'/><author><name>Angelika Westermann</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/05319727992399747779</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='24' height='32' src='http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_mG93sppW0Vo/SckXSlSAG6I/AAAAAAAAA_8/A6NjrImIiKE/S220/selbst.JPG'/></author><media:thumbnail xmlns:media='http://search.yahoo.com/mrss/' url='http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_mG93sppW0Vo/TNRUXeIXcuI/AAAAAAAABXQ/8SkPHM0YLJM/s72-c/SDC14651.JPG' height='72' width='72'/><thr:total>1</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-33101013.post-6202738674634369231</id><published>2010-10-26T19:17:00.000+02:00</published><updated>2010-10-26T19:17:06.734+02:00</updated><title type='text'>Herbstlicht</title><content type='html'>&lt;div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"&gt;&lt;a href="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_mG93sppW0Vo/TMcK0PIrDdI/AAAAAAAABXE/F_Js1VsIfCE/s1600/SDC14629.JPG" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"&gt;&lt;img border="0" height="240" src="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_mG93sppW0Vo/TMcK0PIrDdI/AAAAAAAABXE/F_Js1VsIfCE/s320/SDC14629.JPG" width="320" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Ein sonnige Herbsttag zeig ein Licht, das in meinen Augen unvergleichlich ist. Es hat etwas Strahlendes und trotzdem Weiches. Die Luft wirkt irgenwie klarer als sonst. Es muß am Stand der Sonne liegen, anders kann ich es mir nicht erklären. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"&gt;&lt;a href="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_mG93sppW0Vo/TMcLiOejcNI/AAAAAAAABXI/nwgv6q_YtIo/s1600/SDC14635.JPG" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"&gt;&lt;img border="0" height="240" src="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_mG93sppW0Vo/TMcLiOejcNI/AAAAAAAABXI/nwgv6q_YtIo/s320/SDC14635.JPG" width="320" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Light on a beautiful autumn day is something very special. Somehow it seems to be more mellow and golden than at other times of the year. I supposed this is due to the fact that the sun stands lower in comparison to earth. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"&gt;&lt;a href="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_mG93sppW0Vo/TMcMKCwAmYI/AAAAAAAABXM/bWBdskFxG7M/s1600/SDC14636.JPG" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"&gt;&lt;img border="0" height="240" src="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_mG93sppW0Vo/TMcMKCwAmYI/AAAAAAAABXM/bWBdskFxG7M/s320/SDC14636.JPG" width="320" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/33101013-6202738674634369231?l=dragonquilts.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://dragonquilts.blogspot.com/feeds/6202738674634369231/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=33101013&amp;postID=6202738674634369231&amp;isPopup=true' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/33101013/posts/default/6202738674634369231'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/33101013/posts/default/6202738674634369231'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://dragonquilts.blogspot.com/2010/10/herbstlicht.html' title='Herbstlicht'/><author><name>Angelika Westermann</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/05319727992399747779</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='24' height='32' src='http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_mG93sppW0Vo/SckXSlSAG6I/AAAAAAAAA_8/A6NjrImIiKE/S220/selbst.JPG'/></author><media:thumbnail xmlns:media='http://search.yahoo.com/mrss/' url='http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_mG93sppW0Vo/TMcK0PIrDdI/AAAAAAAABXE/F_Js1VsIfCE/s72-c/SDC14629.JPG' height='72' width='72'/><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-33101013.post-7815319728933158089</id><published>2010-10-13T22:15:00.000+02:00</published><updated>2010-10-13T22:15:23.741+02:00</updated><title type='text'>Altes Journal, neues Journal</title><content type='html'>&lt;div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"&gt;&lt;a href="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_mG93sppW0Vo/TLYQKRfwztI/AAAAAAAABW4/u7v7x-5TBWA/s1600/SDC14499.JPG" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"&gt;&lt;img border="0" height="240" src="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_mG93sppW0Vo/TLYQKRfwztI/AAAAAAAABW4/u7v7x-5TBWA/s320/SDC14499.JPG" width="320" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Und wieder einmal ist ein Art Journal gefüllt. Oben sind die letzte Seite und das rückwärtige Cover zu sehen. Dieses Buch ist ausschließlich in Collagetechnik gearbeitet. Inzwischen ist aber ein neues Journal entstanden, das gefüllt werden will. Zum ersten Mal habe ich ein Buch im Akkordion-Stil gemacht.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"&gt;&lt;a href="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_mG93sppW0Vo/TLYQ3tHbdlI/AAAAAAAABW8/dS06XJyzaoY/s1600/SDC14501.JPG" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"&gt;&lt;img border="0" height="240" src="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_mG93sppW0Vo/TLYQ3tHbdlI/AAAAAAAABW8/dS06XJyzaoY/s320/SDC14501.JPG" width="320" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Das Cover ziert ein Stück Silk Paper, das ich mit goldener Acrylfarbe und einem indischen Druckstock bestempelt habe. Die Seiten bestehen aus Aquarellpapier, die alle bereits mit Acrylfarbe bearbeitet sind.

While the last one (you can see the last spread on the first photo) was exclusively paper collage, the new one (the first with an accordion style foldout) is watercolor paper with acrylic washes.

Nicht weit - nur von Neuleiningen bis Heidelberg. Ein ausgedehnter Bummel durch die Stadt, ein kleiner Ausflug zum Schloß, und dann die Rückfahrt mit einem kleine Stopp in Freinsheim (ein kleiner Ort in der Pfalz mit einer sehr schönen erhaltenen Stadtmauer) und dann ein Ausklang in Battenberg (direkter Nachbarort von Neuleiningen) bei einem Winzer mit einem guten Schluck Wein und einem ungeplanten und daher um so netteren Treffen mit Freunden. Es war einfach ein perfekter Tag.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"&gt;&lt;a href="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_mG93sppW0Vo/TLNsoqgv-vI/AAAAAAAABW0/G3iOqHXlEF4/s1600/SDC14595.JPG" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"&gt;&lt;img border="0" height="320" src="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_mG93sppW0Vo/TLNsoqgv-vI/AAAAAAAABW0/G3iOqHXlEF4/s320/SDC14595.JPG" width="232" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Since the sun was shining very brightly today we made a short trip. Just from Neuleiningen where we live to Heidelberg. A leasurely strol through the city, a short visit of the castle, and then back home with a short stop in Freinsheim (a small village in Rheinland-Pfalz with a beautiful old city wall) and chill down in Battenberg (the neighbour village of Neuleiningen) with a good glass of wine and a surprise meeting with old friends. It was a really perfect day.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"&gt;&lt;a href="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_mG93sppW0Vo/TLNsAziwKzI/AAAAAAAABWw/aUVmB9eyJJg/s1600/SDC14572.JPG" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"&gt;&lt;img border="0" height="320" src="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_mG93sppW0Vo/TLNsAziwKzI/AAAAAAAABWw/aUVmB9eyJJg/s320/SDC14572.JPG" width="240" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/33101013-5873437906738852333?l=dragonquilts.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://dragonquilts.blogspot.com/feeds/5873437906738852333/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=33101013&amp;postID=5873437906738852333&amp;isPopup=true' title='2 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/33101013/posts/default/5873437906738852333'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/33101013/posts/default/5873437906738852333'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://dragonquilts.blogspot.com/2010/10/heimatkunde.html' title='Heimatkunde'/><author><name>Angelika Westermann</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/05319727992399747779</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='24' height='32' src='http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_mG93sppW0Vo/SckXSlSAG6I/AAAAAAAAA_8/A6NjrImIiKE/S220/selbst.JPG'/></author><media:thumbnail xmlns:media='http://search.yahoo.com/mrss/' url='http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_mG93sppW0Vo/TLNSsSNdhaI/AAAAAAAABWc/9hM25QyPLQk/s72-c/SDC14511.JPG' height='72' width='72'/><thr:total>2</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-33101013.post-7126369024254472333</id><published>2010-10-10T18:10:00.000+02:00</published><updated>2010-10-10T18:10:39.047+02:00</updated><title type='text'>Schnecke</title><content type='html'>&lt;div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"&gt;&lt;a href="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_mG93sppW0Vo/TLHkoL9bKdI/AAAAAAAABWY/8cS7sxG4X8o/s1600/SDC14495.JPG" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"&gt;&lt;img border="0" height="240" src="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_mG93sppW0Vo/TLHkoL9bKdI/AAAAAAAABWY/8cS7sxG4X8o/s320/SDC14495.JPG" width="320" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Eigentlich hat man ja nicht so gerne Schnecken im Garten.

Dieser ist - wie man unschwer erkennen kann - für einen Jungen. Die Eltern wollten auf jeden Fall einen Quilt, der "Junge" schreit, so daß ich auf gar keinen Fall pastellige Farben oder gar Blümchenstoffe einsetzen konnte. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Another babyquilt is finished.

Aber ich fand vor einiger Zeit in der ersten Ausgabe von thr3fold von Linda und Laura Kemshall &amp;amp; Catherine Nicholls diese Anleitung für einen Schal, der sich von selbst kringelt. Es gibt inzwischen so wunderschöne Garne mit Farbverläufen, daß ich das unbedingt einmal ausprobieren wollte. Das Ergebnis ist einfach wunderschön, finde ich. &amp;nbsp; &amp;nbsp; &amp;nbsp; &amp;nbsp; &amp;nbsp; &amp;nbsp; &amp;nbsp; &amp;nbsp; &amp;nbsp; &amp;nbsp; &amp;nbsp; &amp;nbsp; &amp;nbsp; &amp;nbsp; &amp;nbsp; &amp;nbsp; &amp;nbsp; &amp;nbsp; &amp;nbsp; &lt;br /&gt;&lt;div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"&gt;&lt;a href="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_mG93sppW0Vo/TJYW4U71dvI/AAAAAAAABWI/lKskWna71ks/s1600/SDC14481.JPG" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"&gt;&lt;img border="0" height="240" src="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_mG93sppW0Vo/TJYW4U71dvI/AAAAAAAABWI/lKskWna71ks/s320/SDC14481.JPG" width="320" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;It has been some time since I have been knitting. But I found the knitting instruction for this scarf which curls around itself in the first issue of thr3fold by Linda und Laura Kemshall &amp;amp; Catherine Nicholls and just had to try it. There are so many beautiful yarns around, and I really like the outcome very much.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"&gt;&lt;a href="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_mG93sppW0Vo/TJYXlRIMXII/AAAAAAAABWM/25oY8p1LbzQ/s1600/SDC14482.JPG" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"&gt;&lt;img border="0" height="240" src="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_mG93sppW0Vo/TJYXlRIMXII/AAAAAAAABWM/25oY8p1LbzQ/s320/SDC14482.JPG" width="320" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/33101013-5206342353720698199?l=dragonquilts.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://dragonquilts.blogspot.com/feeds/5206342353720698199/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=33101013&amp;postID=5206342353720698199&amp;isPopup=true' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/33101013/posts/default/5206342353720698199'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/33101013/posts/default/5206342353720698199'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://dragonquilts.blogspot.com/2010/09/lange-nicht-mehr-gestrickt.html' title='Lange nicht mehr gestrickt'/><author><name>Angelika Westermann</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/05319727992399747779</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='24' height='32' src='http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_mG93sppW0Vo/SckXSlSAG6I/AAAAAAAAA_8/A6NjrImIiKE/S220/selbst.JPG'/></author><media:thumbnail xmlns:media='http://search.yahoo.com/mrss/' url='http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_mG93sppW0Vo/TJYWEdpid8I/AAAAAAAABWE/ZdcbCus_jkY/s72-c/SDC14485.JPG' height='72' width='72'/><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-33101013.post-4748724393111638833</id><published>2010-09-07T19:46:00.001+02:00</published><updated>2010-09-07T20:01:59.885+02:00</updated><title type='text'>Zwei Quilts</title><content type='html'>&lt;div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"&gt;&lt;a href="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_mG93sppW0Vo/TIZ34b4R-TI/AAAAAAAABVs/6jw1fF8GDG8/s1600/Birmingham+2010+011.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"&gt;&lt;img border="0" height="240" src="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_mG93sppW0Vo/TIZ34b4R-TI/AAAAAAAABVs/6jw1fF8GDG8/s320/Birmingham+2010+011.jpg" width="320" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Endlich will ich die Fotos von den beiden Quilts zeigen, mit denen ich in der unmittelbaren Vergangenheit so beschäftigt war.

Das andere ist ein Babyquilt für Zuwachs in der Verwandtschaft.&lt;br /&gt;Jetzt muß ich mich gleich an die beiden nächsten Babyquilts machen, einen für eine schwangere Kollegin, den anderen wiederum als Auftragsarbeit.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"&gt;&lt;a href="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_mG93sppW0Vo/TIZ4mINgo7I/AAAAAAAABVw/23nAnZOMm8Q/s1600/Birmingham+2010+008.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"&gt;&lt;img border="0" height="240" src="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_mG93sppW0Vo/TIZ4mINgo7I/AAAAAAAABVw/23nAnZOMm8Q/s320/Birmingham+2010+008.jpg" width="320" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;At last I will show you photos of the two quilts I have been stitching in last few weeks.

Nicht nur, daß mir die Art ihrer Kurse sehr gefällt, ich mag auch die Gemeinschaft der Gruppe. Hier habe ich ein neues Journal nach ihrer Anleitung gemacht und die ersten Seiten darin bearbeitet - gerade mal ein kleiner Anfang. Es sind die Kleinigkeiten wie die gestaffelten Seiten, die diese Dinge so abwechslungsreich machen.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"&gt;&lt;a href="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_mG93sppW0Vo/TF2AtYnvO9I/AAAAAAAABVI/IT4zabSxFEQ/s1600/SDC14376.JPG" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"&gt;&lt;img border="0" height="240" src="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_mG93sppW0Vo/TF2AtYnvO9I/AAAAAAAABVI/IT4zabSxFEQ/s320/SDC14376.JPG" width="320" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Once again I am participating in one of Kelly Kilmer's courses. I not only like the way of her courses but I really enjoy the encouragement of the group. Here you can see a new journal I made according to her instructions and the very first pages - just a small beginning. It's small things like the different size of the pages that make these journals so interesting.&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/33101013-1200833884307664938?l=dragonquilts.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://dragonquilts.blogspot.com/feeds/1200833884307664938/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=33101013&amp;postID=1200833884307664938&amp;isPopup=true' title='1 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/33101013/posts/default/1200833884307664938'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/33101013/posts/default/1200833884307664938'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://dragonquilts.blogspot.com/2010/08/selbst-gemachte-journals.html' title='Selbst gemachte Journals'/><author><name>Angelika Westermann</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/05319727992399747779</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='24' height='32' src='http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_mG93sppW0Vo/SckXSlSAG6I/AAAAAAAAA_8/A6NjrImIiKE/S220/selbst.JPG'/></author><media:thumbnail xmlns:media='http://search.yahoo.com/mrss/' url='http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_mG93sppW0Vo/TF1zN2WfUSI/AAAAAAAABVE/ZMlQ2GQ8G0k/s72-c/SDC14375.JPG' height='72' width='72'/><thr:total>1</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-33101013.post-7356340610660566228</id><published>2010-08-04T17:32:00.000+02:00</published><updated>2010-08-04T17:32:15.255+02:00</updated><title type='text'>Autsch!</title><content type='html'>Es ist genau eine Woche her, daß ich bei uns die Treppe heruntergefallen bin.

(Es erübrigt sich wohl zu sagen, daß sie das Meer heiß und innig liebt, kommt sie doch aus Norddeutschland). Ich selbst mag das Meer auch sehr, so daß es für mich nicht schwierig war, die entsprechenden Bilder und Motive zu finden. Auf dem Buchdeckel habe ich ein kleines Stück Driftwood verarbeitet, das ich vor einigen Jahren am Strand in Schottland gefunden habe.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"&gt;&lt;a href="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_mG93sppW0Vo/TFGvb2X5qBI/AAAAAAAABU0/AF1S8ZSGdUw/s1600/SDC14368.JPG" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"&gt;&lt;img border="0" height="240" src="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_mG93sppW0Vo/TFGvb2X5qBI/AAAAAAAABU0/AF1S8ZSGdUw/s320/SDC14368.JPG" width="320" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;For my best friend I made an altered book called "The Sea". She loves the sea (which is no wonder since she was born in northern Germany). I adore the sea and the beach too, so is was very easy for me to find the according papers and photos.

Es hat lange genug gedauert, obwohl es wohl verständlich ist, wenn man sich die Details anschaut. Dieses Stück wurde so schön, daß ich es als kleinen Quilt verarbeitet habe. Der Batikstoff wurde mit einem weißen Spinnvlies überdeckt, um ihn etwas abzudämpfen und auch den Kontrast zwischen Stickteil und Stoff etwas abzumildern.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"&gt;&lt;a href="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_mG93sppW0Vo/S9nfZu3f7cI/AAAAAAAABUY/ber9V3Mb_pI/s1600/sdc13571+%28Bearbeitet%29.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"&gt;&lt;img border="0" height="295" src="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_mG93sppW0Vo/S9nfZu3f7cI/AAAAAAAABUY/ber9V3Mb_pI/s320/sdc13571+%28Bearbeitet%29.jpg" width="320" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Finally - my latest piece from the online class "free stitching". Although when looking at the finer details it is quite clear why this took so long... As I rather liked the outcome I decided to make a small wallhanging.

Es wurde ein großer Teil der Seiten entfernt, die noch existierenden Seiten wurden übermalt und teilweise mit Collagen verdeckt, dann wurden Fotos hineingeklebt, es wurde geschrieben und gestempelt. Das Thema ist "Frühling". Das Glasröhrchen auf dem Einband enthält das Gedicht "Frühling" von Eduard Möricke.&amp;nbsp; &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"&gt;&lt;a href="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_mG93sppW0Vo/S9CmKjQYWsI/AAAAAAAABUE/TbHgUfWJ5XI/s1600/sdc13567.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"&gt;&lt;img border="0" height="240" src="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_mG93sppW0Vo/S9CmKjQYWsI/AAAAAAAABUE/TbHgUfWJ5XI/s320/sdc13567.jpg" width="320" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;This is the first book I really altered. About half of the pages were torn out, the rest of them painted or even collaged. I added photos, stamped and wrote onto the pages. It is a book about spring. The vial on the cover contains a very famous German poem titled "Frühling" by Eduard Möricke.&amp;nbsp; &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"&gt;&lt;a href="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_mG93sppW0Vo/S9Cm8cWAWrI/AAAAAAAABUI/1zi0g_YmgDQ/s1600/sdc13570.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"&gt;&lt;img border="0" height="240" src="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_mG93sppW0Vo/S9Cm8cWAWrI/AAAAAAAABUI/1zi0g_YmgDQ/s320/sdc13570.jpg" width="320" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/33101013-5472834042940842746?l=dragonquilts.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://dragonquilts.blogspot.com/feeds/5472834042940842746/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=33101013&amp;postID=5472834042940842746&amp;isPopup=true' title='1 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/33101013/posts/default/5472834042940842746'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/33101013/posts/default/5472834042940842746'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://dragonquilts.blogspot.com/2010/04/altered-book.html' title='Altered book'/><author><name>Angelika Westermann</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/05319727992399747779</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='24' height='32' src='http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_mG93sppW0Vo/SckXSlSAG6I/AAAAAAAAA_8/A6NjrImIiKE/S220/selbst.JPG'/></author><media:thumbnail xmlns:media='http://search.yahoo.com/mrss/' url='http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_mG93sppW0Vo/S9ClU4CC_QI/AAAAAAAABUA/aNFDZKrTgmw/s72-c/angelika.jpg' height='72' width='72'/><thr:total>1</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-33101013.post-7635105871286979453</id><published>2010-04-15T18:18:00.000+02:00</published><updated>2010-04-15T18:18:06.488+02:00</updated><title type='text'></title><content type='html'>&lt;div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"&gt;&lt;a href="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_mG93sppW0Vo/S8c6lB6MPMI/AAAAAAAABT0/EkAFkf4PglQ/s1600/sdc13555+%28Bearbeitet%29.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"&gt;&lt;img border="0" height="309" src="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_mG93sppW0Vo/S8c6lB6MPMI/AAAAAAAABT0/EkAFkf4PglQ/s320/sdc13555+%28Bearbeitet%29.jpg" width="320" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Inzwischen hat sich der Frühling auch in unseren Garten gewagt.

Irgendwie hat mich diese Tatsache etwas deprimiert. Da dachte ich, ich hätte all meine Ablösungsängste schon absolviert als die Kinder der Reihe nach ins Studium gingen, aber das war wohl ein Irrtum. Dieser Geburtstag hat mir nachhaltig klar gemacht, daß unsere Kinder inzwischen erwachsen sind, ihr eigenes Leben haben - völlig unabhängig von uns "Alten" - und sich damit immer mehr von uns entfernen. Ich habe meine etwas depressiven Gedanken in einer Doppelseite meines Art Journals verarbeitet.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"&gt;&lt;a href="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_mG93sppW0Vo/S7uUabzuo7I/AAAAAAAABTs/Lg3yP2Av7o4/s1600/sdc13504+%28Bearbeitet%29.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"&gt;&lt;img border="0" src="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_mG93sppW0Vo/S7uUabzuo7I/AAAAAAAABTs/Lg3yP2Av7o4/s320/sdc13504+%28Bearbeitet%29.jpg" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;These days our oldest daughter turned 25. Somehow this made me depressive. I thought I had passed that empty nest syndrome after all of our kids went off to study, but that seems not to be true. This day proved that our children are grown up by now and are living their own lifes - definitely independent from their parents - and that they are growing away from us.

Zu meiner Überraschung brauchte ich unendlich lange, um endlich eine Komposition zu finden, die mir gefiel. Es dauerte bestimmt eine Stunde, bis ich alles so arrangiert hatte wie es jetzt ist. Das nächste Mal werde ich den Hinweis, ein Foto vom Arrangement zu machen, sicherlich wahrnehmen.

Letztes Jahr bestand der Hintergrund unserer Seiten aus sehr intensiven Schichtungen von Acrylfarben. Inzwischen ist Kelly auf Collagen umgestiegen - das hat den großen Vorteil, daß die Seiten viel schneller fertig sind. Andererseits hat mir die Komplexität der Acrylhintergründe sehr gut gefallen. Wahrscheinlich werde ich, wenn ich die Zeit dazu habe, auch wieder solche Seiten machen.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"&gt;&lt;a href="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_mG93sppW0Vo/S47M4GiiERI/AAAAAAAABQo/SDaNrmmLDZ0/s1600-h/sdc13304+%28Bearbeitet%29.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"&gt;&lt;img border="0" src="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_mG93sppW0Vo/S47M4GiiERI/AAAAAAAABQo/SDaNrmmLDZ0/s320/sdc13304+%28Bearbeitet%29.jpg" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;After attending a class with Kelly last year I returned this year. Last year the background of our pages was made by intensively layering acrylic color. In the meantime Kelly has switched to collaging - the great advantage of this is that the pages are much quicker to make. On the other hand I really liked the complexity of the acrylic backgrounds. I suppose I will make this kind of background whenever I have the time to do it.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"&gt;&lt;a href="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_mG93sppW0Vo/S47NUOQGiYI/AAAAAAAABQw/1FRK7GH6QSA/s1600-h/sdc13301+%28Bearbeitet%29.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"&gt;&lt;img border="0" src="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_mG93sppW0Vo/S47NUOQGiYI/AAAAAAAABQw/1FRK7GH6QSA/s320/sdc13301+%28Bearbeitet%29.jpg" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: center;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/33101013-2499479653983902290?l=dragonquilts.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://dragonquilts.blogspot.com/feeds/2499479653983902290/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=33101013&amp;postID=2499479653983902290&amp;isPopup=true' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/33101013/posts/default/2499479653983902290'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/33101013/posts/default/2499479653983902290'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://dragonquilts.blogspot.com/2010/03/art-journaling.html' title='Art journaling'/><author><name>Angelika Westermann</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/05319727992399747779</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='24' height='32' src='http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_mG93sppW0Vo/SckXSlSAG6I/AAAAAAAAA_8/A6NjrImIiKE/S220/selbst.JPG'/></author><media:thumbnail xmlns:media='http://search.yahoo.com/mrss/' url='http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_mG93sppW0Vo/S47NvIXY24I/AAAAAAAABQ4/iTPq_Y9wH9c/s72-c/sdc13303+%28Bearbeitet%29.jpg' height='72' width='72'/><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-33101013.post-6552780030018821991</id><published>2010-02-28T18:21:00.000+01:00</published><updated>2010-02-28T18:21:12.991+01:00</updated><title type='text'>Mixed media collage</title><content type='html'>&lt;div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"&gt;&lt;a href="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_mG93sppW0Vo/S4qkmO4meTI/AAAAAAAABQE/ZSZ1ZmBjS4E/s1600-h/sdc13300+%28Bearbeitet%29.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"&gt;&lt;img border="0" src="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_mG93sppW0Vo/S4qkmO4meTI/AAAAAAAABQE/ZSZ1ZmBjS4E/s320/sdc13300+%28Bearbeitet%29.jpg" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Habe beim Surfen eine neue Adresse für &lt;a href="http://www.mycreativeclassroom.com/"&gt;Online-Kurse&lt;/a&gt; entdeckt und mich sofort eingeschrieben für einen Mixed media-Kurs.

Als wir das letzte Mal in Amerika waren, haben ich leider nach wenigen Tagen damit aufgehört. Das tut mir heute noch leid. Gerade bei solchen Reisen sind die Eindrücke meist so vielfältig, daß man sehr viel vergißt. Mit dem Format hatte ich anfangs etwas Probleme, da ich bisher immer in vertikal ausgerichteten Büchern gearbeitet habe. Da ich leider eine sehr gut lesbare Schrift habe, mußte ich ein wenig radieren.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_mG93sppW0Vo/S4FexfIDYqI/AAAAAAAABPc/K0hIrS2V8Oo/s1600-h/sdc13289+a(Bearbeitet).jpg"&gt;&lt;img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 320px; height: 194px;" src="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_mG93sppW0Vo/S4FexfIDYqI/AAAAAAAABPc/K0hIrS2V8Oo/s320/sdc13289+a(Bearbeitet).jpg" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5440734029102146210" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;During our trip to Usedom I made a travel journal - a little bit in preparation for the next great journey we are planning. When being in the States several years ago I stopped journaling after same days. This is something I deeply regret to this day. Especially during such extended trips the impressions you get are so many that you tend to forget quite a lot of them. &lt;br /&gt;In the beginning I had some problems with the format - so far I only worked in vertical books. Since my handwriting is very legible I had to do something about that.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_mG93sppW0Vo/S4Fp6c67aXI/AAAAAAAABP8/UDcaIbW0lZE/s1600-h/sdc13291+a(Bearbeitet).jpg"&gt;&lt;img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 320px; height: 202px;" src="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_mG93sppW0Vo/S4Fp6c67aXI/AAAAAAAABP8/UDcaIbW0lZE/s320/sdc13291+a(Bearbeitet).jpg" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5440746277756954994" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/33101013-4174552458795875904?l=dragonquilts.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://dragonquilts.blogspot.com/feeds/4174552458795875904/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=33101013&amp;postID=4174552458795875904&amp;isPopup=true' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/33101013/posts/default/4174552458795875904'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/33101013/posts/default/4174552458795875904'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://dragonquilts.blogspot.com/2010/02/wahrend-unserer-reise-nach-usedom-habe.html' title='Reisetagebuch'/><author><name>Angelika Westermann</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/05319727992399747779</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='24' height='32' src='http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_mG93sppW0Vo/SckXSlSAG6I/AAAAAAAAA_8/A6NjrImIiKE/S220/selbst.JPG'/></author><media:thumbnail xmlns:media='http://search.yahoo.com/mrss/' url='http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_mG93sppW0Vo/S4Fed1cw99I/AAAAAAAABPU/mMFEwUDGEtY/s72-c/sdc13288+a(Bearbeitet).jpg' height='72' width='72'/><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-33101013.post-5047274035687812194</id><published>2010-02-17T17:11:00.007+01:00</published><updated>2010-02-17T17:31:20.787+01:00</updated><title type='text'>Brrrrrrrrr</title><content type='html'>&lt;a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_mG93sppW0Vo/S3wZCEL2eQI/AAAAAAAABPM/lpcKUyjrgpY/s1600-h/sdc13234.jpg"&gt;&lt;img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 320px; height: 240px;" src="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_mG93sppW0Vo/S3wZCEL2eQI/AAAAAAAABPM/lpcKUyjrgpY/s320/sdc13234.jpg" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5439249973230598402" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_mG93sppW0Vo/S3wYFVcGgfI/AAAAAAAABPE/oCRJYHfvmqM/s1600-h/sdc13259.jpg"&gt;&lt;img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 320px; height: 240px;" src="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_mG93sppW0Vo/S3wYFVcGgfI/AAAAAAAABPE/oCRJYHfvmqM/s320/sdc13259.jpg" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5439248929890140658" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Wir sind zurück von einem denkwürdigen Kurzurlaub auf Usedom. Denkwürdig insofern, als dort seit mehr als 30 Jahren erstmals wieder die Ostsee zugefroren ist. Ich habe ja schon einiges an Meer auf dieser Erde gesehen und erlebt, aber so etwas denn nun doch noch nicht! Ich kann mir so ungefähr vorstellen, wie es Leuten wie Amundsen oder Scott gegangen sein muß. Allerdings hatten wir jederzeit die Möglichkeit umzudrehen und uns in unser kuscheliges Appartment zu einem Kaffee zurückzubegeben. Die Bilder allerdings begeistern mich immer wieder neu.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_mG93sppW0Vo/S3wXA6emqbI/AAAAAAAABO8/Zus5Ph7jcpo/s1600-h/sdc13205.jpg"&gt;&lt;img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 320px; height: 240px;" src="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_mG93sppW0Vo/S3wXA6emqbI/AAAAAAAABO8/Zus5Ph7jcpo/s320/sdc13205.jpg" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5439247754421774770" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;We are back from a memorable short trip to Usedom. Memorable insofar as the Baltic sea has been frozen which happened the last time more than 30 years back). I have seen and experienced different kinds of sea on our earth, but this was a first! Now I can imagine how people like Scott or Amundsen must have felt. We however had the choice to just turn back and return to our cosy apartment and drink some hot coffee at any time.

Dabei hatte ich wirklich gedacht, wir hätten für diesen Winter genug gehabt. Aber nein, es hat noch einmal einen ganzen Tag und eine ganze Nacht geschneit. Mal abgesehen davon, daß das Autofahren wirklich keinen Spaß macht, sieht es einfach viel schöner aus als wenn alles so grau in grau ist wie in den letzten Tagen. Eigentlich liebe ich Schnee. Wenn ich nicht wirklich jede Besorgung mit dem Auto machen und auch zur Arbeit fahren müßte, würde ich es nur genießen .&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_mG93sppW0Vo/S12-bLOJGGI/AAAAAAAABN4/4CJg4EHIPOY/s1600-h/sdc13166+(Bearbeitet).jpg"&gt;&lt;img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 320px; height: 219px;" src="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_mG93sppW0Vo/S12-bLOJGGI/AAAAAAAABN4/4CJg4EHIPOY/s320/sdc13166+(Bearbeitet).jpg" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5430706099756537954" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Who would have thought that another load of snow would hit us so soon? I really thought we have had enough for this winter. But no - another day and another night of snowing just went by. Apart from the fact that driving isn't much fun it really looks very pretty. I like snow. But I have to do everything by car, I have to drive to my office, and when the snow ploughs don't even come near our house, that sucks.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_mG93sppW0Vo/S1298JOeITI/AAAAAAAABNw/c5dRikhRViA/s1600-h/sdc13165+(Bearbeitet).jpg"&gt;&lt;img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 320px; height: 226px;" src="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_mG93sppW0Vo/S1298JOeITI/AAAAAAAABNw/c5dRikhRViA/s320/sdc13165+(Bearbeitet).jpg" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5430705566645100850" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/33101013-545058533302845882?l=dragonquilts.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://dragonquilts.blogspot.com/feeds/545058533302845882/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=33101013&amp;postID=545058533302845882&amp;isPopup=true' title='3 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/33101013/posts/default/545058533302845882'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/33101013/posts/default/545058533302845882'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://dragonquilts.blogspot.com/2010/01/schnee-schnee.html' title='Schnee, Schnee!'/><author><name>Angelika Westermann</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/05319727992399747779</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='24' height='32' src='http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_mG93sppW0Vo/SckXSlSAG6I/AAAAAAAAA_8/A6NjrImIiKE/S220/selbst.JPG'/></author><media:thumbnail xmlns:media='http://search.yahoo.com/mrss/' url='http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_mG93sppW0Vo/S12_L0TxTvI/AAAAAAAABOA/mtWphYFXWLU/s72-c/sdc13169.jpg' height='72' width='72'/><thr:total>3</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-33101013.post-8376405479128860914</id><published>2010-01-19T17:52:00.012+01:00</published><updated>2010-01-19T18:09:00.230+01:00</updated><title type='text'>Wieder da</title><content type='html'>&lt;a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_mG93sppW0Vo/S1XjsiY4A9I/AAAAAAAABNA/NT_DmD8xJhw/s1600-h/sdc13158+(Bearbeitet).jpg"&gt;&lt;img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 230px; height: 320px;" src="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_mG93sppW0Vo/S1XjsiY4A9I/AAAAAAAABNA/NT_DmD8xJhw/s320/sdc13158+(Bearbeitet).jpg" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5428495280149890002" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Ja also, wie soll ich es sagen, ich bin wieder da. Eigentlich war ich ja gar nicht weg. Okay, während der Feiertage und die Woche vorher bei meinen Eltern, aber ich bin ja schon lange wieder zu Hause. Aber irgendwie stecke ich momentan in einem Motivationsloch. Ich kann mich zu nichts aufraffen und hänge nur so rum, spiele mit meinem Weihnachtsgeschenk (einem Nintendo), lese, und surfe im Internet. Kann man so spät noch alles Gute für das neue Jahr wünschen?

That is to say, I wasn't really away. Oh yes, those few days during X-mas with my family. But I have been back for quite some time. However, somehow, I seem to enjoy doing nothing quite a lot lately. I have been playing with my X-mas present (a Nintendo), reading and surfing the net. Is it too late to wish you a happy new year? Well, I hope not.

Allerdings war ich recht fleißig in den letzten Tagen. Neben der Jagd nach den passenden Weihnachtsgeschenken habe ich viele Weihnachtskarten selbst gemacht und etliche Notizbücher mit Collagen versehen, die an Freunde und Arbeitskollegen verschenkt werden.

Die Blocks dafür hatte unsere Ladenbesitzerin aus dem Papierkorb gefischt. Sie fand sie zu schade, um sie einfach wegzuwerfen. Tatsächlich waren sie recht unregelmäßig, und ich mußte ein wenig tricksen, um alles zu einem Quilt zu verarbeiten. Aber ich finde, der Einsatz hat sich gelohnt. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_mG93sppW0Vo/Sx0tw2Km2NI/AAAAAAAABMo/e2V9lOOn-CU/s1600-h/sdc13113.jpg"&gt;&lt;img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 320px; height: 240px;" src="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_mG93sppW0Vo/Sx0tw2Km2NI/AAAAAAAABMo/e2V9lOOn-CU/s320/sdc13113.jpg" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5412532644366178514" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Due to some difficulties I had with my photo program I couldn't yet show you the little wallhanging I made as consolation prize for our group exhibition.

Im Fall von Aids ist dies sicherlich bitter nötig. Zum einen, weil immer noch viel zu wenig für die Betroffenen getan wird, vor allem in Ländern der Dritten Welt. Zum anderen, weil hierzulande das Bewußtsein für diese Krankheit offenbar mehr und mehr schwindet.&lt;br /&gt;Als meine Kinder auf die Welt kamen dachte ich noch, sie hätten es einmal viel besser als ich, was Sexualität betrifft. Meine Jugend war von einer körperfeindlichen Religion und der Angst vor ungewollter Schwangerschaft geprägt. Mit der Pille und einer viel freieren Erziehung dachte ich, meine Kinder könnten einmal angstfrei mit ihrer eigenen Lust umgehen. Und dann kam Aids. Seither kann ich mich einer bestimmten Angst um meine Kinder nicht ganz erwehren. Denn diese Bedrohung ist weit schlimmer als eine ungewollte Schwangerschaft.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;blockquote&gt;&lt;script type="text/javascript" src="http://www.welt-aids-tag.de/media/schleifen/rote-schleife-wat_80x98/load.php" &gt;&lt;/script&gt;&lt;noscript&gt;&lt;a href="http://www.welt-aids-tag.de/jumpin/rote-schleife_80x98" target="_blank"&gt;&lt;img src="http://www.welt-aids-tag.de/media/schleifen/rote-schleife-wat_80x98.png" width="80" height="98" style="border: 0;" alt="Die Rote Schleife" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/noscript&gt;&lt;/blockquote&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I don't know if these international days result in anything more than words - I hope so. First because I think that there is not enough money for those afflicted by this illness, especially when they are living in a poorer country. And secondly, because people don't seem to really recall the issues of aids. &lt;br /&gt;When my children were still small I thought that they would have more joy with their sexuality than I had oppressed as I was by religious inhibitions and the chances of unwanted pregnancy. With the pill and liberated education I thought life would be easier for them. And then there was aids. I cannot help but feel afraid for them. Aids is a much graver danger than unwanted pregnancy.&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/33101013-6953045947398747683?l=dragonquilts.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://dragonquilts.blogspot.com/feeds/6953045947398747683/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=33101013&amp;postID=6953045947398747683&amp;isPopup=true' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/33101013/posts/default/6953045947398747683'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/33101013/posts/default/6953045947398747683'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://dragonquilts.blogspot.com/2009/12/weltaidstag.html' title='Weltaidstag'/><author><name>Angelika Westermann</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/05319727992399747779</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='24' height='32' src='http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_mG93sppW0Vo/SckXSlSAG6I/AAAAAAAAA_8/A6NjrImIiKE/S220/selbst.JPG'/></author><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-33101013.post-6156129575494624790</id><published>2009-11-29T17:59:00.004+01:00</published><updated>2009-11-29T18:04:05.318+01:00</updated><title type='text'>Journal cover</title><content type='html'>&lt;a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_mG93sppW0Vo/SxKo-MrH6KI/AAAAAAAABMY/UrkO0xbo6HI/s1600/sdc13096+(Bearbeitet).jpg"&gt;&lt;img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 230px; height: 320px;" src="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_mG93sppW0Vo/SxKo-MrH6KI/AAAAAAAABMY/UrkO0xbo6HI/s320/sdc13096+(Bearbeitet).jpg" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5409571888932841634" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Während meiner Online-Kurse bei Sarah Whitmire habe ich dieses Journal Cover gemacht.

Bei der Gelegenheit fiel mit ein, daß ich noch gar nicht von der Vernissage berichtet habe. Dabei wurde diese wirklich sehr schön mit Reden, Musik und Sektempfang begangen, und sogar der Bürgermeister der Stadt war anwesend. Ich gehöre dieser Gruppe seit etwa 12 Jahren an - so ganz genau weiß ich es ehrlich gesagt nicht. Im vergangenen Jahr hatten wir unsere 25. Ausstellung,das ist für eine deutsche Gruppe ganz beachtlich. Wer uns besuchen möchte findet uns in Grünstadt in der Pfalz im Altenheim (Nähe Amtsgericht). Es gibt auch einen wunderschönen Quilt zu gewinnen!

I realized that I have not yet told you about our opening which was very nice with music, an introduction by our local patchworkshop owner and a sparkling wine reception. Even the town's major was present. I have been a member of this group for about 12 years. Last year we had our 25th exhibition which is quite astonishing for a German group. If you would like to visit us, you will find us in Grünstadt (Rheinland-Pfalz) in the retirement home (near the district court). There is a beautiful quilt to win! (It's not the one on the photo.)&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_mG93sppW0Vo/Svx-XqU8YeI/AAAAAAAABMA/GMZ62i8SeXk/s1600-h/sdc13104+(Bearbeitet).jpg"&gt;&lt;img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 253px; height: 320px;" src="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_mG93sppW0Vo/Svx-XqU8YeI/AAAAAAAABMA/GMZ62i8SeXk/s320/sdc13104+(Bearbeitet).jpg" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5403332597901976034" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/33101013-4964478217533904715?l=dragonquilts.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://dragonquilts.blogspot.com/feeds/4964478217533904715/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=33101013&amp;postID=4964478217533904715&amp;isPopup=true' title='2 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/33101013/posts/default/4964478217533904715'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/33101013/posts/default/4964478217533904715'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://dragonquilts.blogspot.com/2009/11/ausstellung.html' title='Ausstellung'/><author><name>Angelika Westermann</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/05319727992399747779</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='24' height='32' src='http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_mG93sppW0Vo/SckXSlSAG6I/AAAAAAAAA_8/A6NjrImIiKE/S220/selbst.JPG'/></author><media:thumbnail xmlns:media='http://search.yahoo.com/mrss/' url='http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_mG93sppW0Vo/Svx7UxISrsI/AAAAAAAABLw/eKyhuA1RIk0/s72-c/sdc13108+(Bearbeitet).jpg' height='72' width='72'/><thr:total>2</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-33101013.post-2244383257394146407</id><published>2009-11-06T19:48:00.007+01:00</published><updated>2009-11-06T20:00:06.311+01:00</updated><title type='text'>Fortgeschrittene Techniken</title><content type='html'>&lt;a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_mG93sppW0Vo/SvRx4i9NY8I/AAAAAAAABLo/k7-YpTUCR0A/s1600-h/sdc13085+(Bearbeitet).jpg"&gt;&lt;img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 219px; height: 320px;" src="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_mG93sppW0Vo/SvRx4i9NY8I/AAAAAAAABLo/k7-YpTUCR0A/s320/sdc13085+(Bearbeitet).jpg" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5401067069394215874" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;In einem Kurs bei &lt;a href="http://www.sarahwhitmire.blogspot.com/"&gt;Sarah Whitmire&lt;/a&gt; habe ich einiges an fortgeschrittenen Techniken für mein Art Journal gelernt. Am Schwierigsten war dabei diese Geschichte. Hier wird das Buch um Seiten ergänzt, die sich auf eine Grundseite klappen lassen. In diese zusätzlichen Seiten werden Fenster geschnitten, die so gestaltet werden, daß jedes Fenster einer Seite einen Durchblick auf die darunter liegenden Seiten gewährt. Das ist eine Sache, die gut durchdacht werden muß, und weil es auch eine dreidimensionale Komponente hat, tue ich mich, wie immer wenn es um drei Dimensionen geht, sehr schwer. Trotz intensiver Planung ist es nicht ganz so geworden, wie ich mir vorgestellt habe. Deswegen war ich total überrascht und auch stolz darauf, daß diese Kombination eine Zeit lang die Homepage der Gruppe schmückte.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_mG93sppW0Vo/SvRxWWOkGtI/AAAAAAAABLg/Kn7nd-EEgjc/s1600-h/sdc13086+(Bearbeitet).jpg"&gt;&lt;img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 214px; height: 320px;" src="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_mG93sppW0Vo/SvRxWWOkGtI/AAAAAAAABLg/Kn7nd-EEgjc/s320/sdc13086+(Bearbeitet).jpg" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5401066481861794514" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I learned several advanced techniques for art journaling in an online class with &lt;a href="http://www.sarahwhitmire.blogspot.com/"&gt;Sarah Whitmire&lt;/a&gt;. The most difficult part for me was this one. We added pages to our journal which were folded down onto each other. We cut windows into these pages - each window showed the page below and the window in the page below. This has to be well planned because it really is three dimensional, and as always I had quite a problem with that. Although I really planned it very well (or thought I did) it didn't quite come out the way I had intended. Therefore I was totally surprised and immensely proud that these pages were to be seen for a while on the group's homepage.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_mG93sppW0Vo/SvRwzkjzctI/AAAAAAAABLY/h1mIzVv7KPA/s1600-h/sdc13087+(Bearbeitet).jpg"&gt;&lt;img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 205px; height: 320px;" src="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_mG93sppW0Vo/SvRwzkjzctI/AAAAAAAABLY/h1mIzVv7KPA/s320/sdc13087+(Bearbeitet).jpg" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5401065884413555410" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_mG93sppW0Vo/SvRwNCAYkAI/AAAAAAAABLQ/HZ3wPtjgaL8/s1600-h/sdc13088+(Bearbeitet).jpg"&gt;&lt;img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 214px; height: 320px;" src="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_mG93sppW0Vo/SvRwNCAYkAI/AAAAAAAABLQ/HZ3wPtjgaL8/s320/sdc13088+(Bearbeitet).jpg" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5401065222303158274" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/33101013-2244383257394146407?l=dragonquilts.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://dragonquilts.blogspot.com/feeds/2244383257394146407/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=33101013&amp;postID=2244383257394146407&amp;isPopup=true' title='1 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/33101013/posts/default/2244383257394146407'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/33101013/posts/default/2244383257394146407'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://dragonquilts.blogspot.com/2009/11/fortgeschrittene-techniken.html' title='Fortgeschrittene Techniken'/><author><name>Angelika Westermann</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/05319727992399747779</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='24' height='32' src='http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_mG93sppW0Vo/SckXSlSAG6I/AAAAAAAAA_8/A6NjrImIiKE/S220/selbst.JPG'/></author><media:thumbnail xmlns:media='http://search.yahoo.com/mrss/' url='http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_mG93sppW0Vo/SvRx4i9NY8I/AAAAAAAABLo/k7-YpTUCR0A/s72-c/sdc13085+(Bearbeitet).jpg' height='72' width='72'/><thr:total>1</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-33101013.post-7424409522340105338</id><published>2009-11-02T17:52:00.004+01:00</published><updated>2009-11-02T18:02:43.111+01:00</updated><title type='text'>Fette Beute</title><content type='html'>&lt;a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_mG93sppW0Vo/Su8QmPGnPmI/AAAAAAAABLI/i8aP3-mHvYM/s1600-h/sdc13097.jpg"&gt;&lt;img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 320px; height: 240px;" src="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_mG93sppW0Vo/Su8QmPGnPmI/AAAAAAAABLI/i8aP3-mHvYM/s320/sdc13097.jpg" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5399552727315856994" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_mG93sppW0Vo/Su8OtO6FI_I/AAAAAAAABKw/ku5uI_heGPE/s1600-h/sdc13099+(Bearbeitet).jpg"&gt;&lt;img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 243px; height: 320px;" src="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_mG93sppW0Vo/Su8OtO6FI_I/AAAAAAAABKw/ku5uI_heGPE/s320/sdc13099+(Bearbeitet).jpg" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5399550648499119090" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Am Samstag war ich mit Freundinnen auf der Kreativ Welt in Wiesbaden. Etwas besseres um mein Suchtpotential zu befriedigen gibt es wohl nicht! Habe ziemlich auf diesen Ausflug hingespart und aufgrund dessen eine ganz nette Ausbeute mit nach Hause nehmen können. Der Schwerpunkt hat sich deutlich von Sticken und Patchwork/Quilten verlagert auf Art Journaling. Allerdings konnte ich an dem großartigen Angebot von Quiltgarn wirklich nicht vorbei gehen.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_mG93sppW0Vo/Su8Pm5d-WQI/AAAAAAAABLA/IzwvNb9sgVo/s1600-h/sdc13101+(Bearbeitet).jpg"&gt;&lt;img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 265px; height: 320px;" src="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_mG93sppW0Vo/Su8Pm5d-WQI/AAAAAAAABLA/IzwvNb9sgVo/s320/sdc13101+(Bearbeitet).jpg" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5399551639176501506" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;This Saturday I went to Wiesbaden with my friends and haunted the Kreativ Welt (a creativity fair). There is not place like this to give in to my greed and buy loads of stuff for my hobbies. I saved every penny for this and could carry home a whole bunch. The main articles are for my art journaling, however I just couldn't resist the offer of rainbow quilting yarn. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_mG93sppW0Vo/Su8PKnFPEpI/AAAAAAAABK4/TBlC8hDelxM/s1600-h/sdc13100+(Bearbeitet).jpg"&gt;&lt;img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 320px; height: 228px;" src="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_mG93sppW0Vo/Su8PKnFPEpI/AAAAAAAABK4/TBlC8hDelxM/s320/sdc13100+(Bearbeitet).jpg" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5399551153204564626" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/33101013-7424409522340105338?l=dragonquilts.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://dragonquilts.blogspot.com/feeds/7424409522340105338/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=33101013&amp;postID=7424409522340105338&amp;isPopup=true' title='3 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/33101013/posts/default/7424409522340105338'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/33101013/posts/default/7424409522340105338'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://dragonquilts.blogspot.com/2009/11/fette-beute.html' title='Fette Beute'/><author><name>Angelika Westermann</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/05319727992399747779</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='24' height='32' src='http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_mG93sppW0Vo/SckXSlSAG6I/AAAAAAAAA_8/A6NjrImIiKE/S220/selbst.JPG'/></author><media:thumbnail xmlns:media='http://search.yahoo.com/mrss/' url='http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_mG93sppW0Vo/Su8QmPGnPmI/AAAAAAAABLI/i8aP3-mHvYM/s72-c/sdc13097.jpg' height='72' width='72'/><thr:total>3</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-33101013.post-7590318798355937430</id><published>2009-10-29T18:24:00.004+01:00</published><updated>2009-10-29T18:28:22.235+01:00</updated><title type='text'>Tag</title><content type='html'>&lt;a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_mG93sppW0Vo/SunQMKhTGYI/AAAAAAAABKo/hkpYm1DwbJA/s1600-h/sdc13095+(Bearbeitet).jpg"&gt;&lt;img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 203px; height: 320px;" src="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_mG93sppW0Vo/SunQMKhTGYI/AAAAAAAABKo/hkpYm1DwbJA/s320/sdc13095+(Bearbeitet).jpg" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5398074535781276034" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Nach langer Pause habe ich mal wieder ein Tag gemacht. Es ist erstaunlich, aber wenn man eine bestimmte Technik lange genug nicht mehr angewandt hat, steht man auf einmal wie der Ochse vor'm Berg. Ich wußte nicht mehr, wie ich den Stoff auf die Unterlage gebracht hatte.... Es erfolgte erst eine Verlegenheitslösung, bis mir am Ende wieder einfiel, wie ich es früher gemacht hatte. Sind das jetzt die ersten Zeichen der Senilität oder was?&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;After a long time I made a tag today. It is quite astonishing how quickly you forget a technique you don't use very often. I couldn't remember how I had fastened the fabric to the background.... After experimenting and taking a new way I recalled just before I finished the darn thing how I had done it in the past. Are these the first signs of oncoming senility or what?&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/33101013-7590318798355937430?l=dragonquilts.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://dragonquilts.blogspot.com/feeds/7590318798355937430/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=33101013&amp;postID=7590318798355937430&amp;isPopup=true' title='1 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/33101013/posts/default/7590318798355937430'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/33101013/posts/default/7590318798355937430'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://dragonquilts.blogspot.com/2009/10/tag.html' title='Tag'/><author><name>Angelika Westermann</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/05319727992399747779</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='24' height='32' src='http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_mG93sppW0Vo/SckXSlSAG6I/AAAAAAAAA_8/A6NjrImIiKE/S220/selbst.JPG'/></author><media:thumbnail xmlns:media='http://search.yahoo.com/mrss/' url='http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_mG93sppW0Vo/SunQMKhTGYI/AAAAAAAABKo/hkpYm1DwbJA/s72-c/sdc13095+(Bearbeitet).jpg' height='72' width='72'/><thr:total>1</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-33101013.post-5206784380111570770</id><published>2009-10-27T19:48:00.005+01:00</published><updated>2009-10-27T21:15:34.609+01:00</updated><title type='text'>ohne Worte</title><content type='html'>&lt;a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_mG93sppW0Vo/SudGROs-qsI/AAAAAAAABKY/QzXC_jkDS6I/s1600-h/sdc13071.jpg"&gt;&lt;img style="display:block;

Ich habe die werdende Mutter gefragt, ob sie lieber etwas Buntes oder eher etwas Romantisches hätte (es war bekannt, daß der neue Erdenbürger ein Mädchen werden würde). Sie hat sich, wie man sieht, für etwas Buntes entschieden. Ich hoffe nur, daß sie nicht wegen der freien Schneidetechnik den Eindruck bekommt, daß ich nicht nähen kann....&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;And again one of my colleagues had a baby, so that I had the opportunity to sew a baby quilt. I had asked the mother to be whether she wanted something colorful or rather something romantic (since she knew the baby was going to be a girl). As you can see she opted for colorful. I only hope she will not take the freehand cutting as proof that I cannot sew....&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/33101013-5285558096476142286?l=dragonquilts.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://dragonquilts.blogspot.com/feeds/5285558096476142286/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=33101013&amp;postID=5285558096476142286&amp;isPopup=true' title='2 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/33101013/posts/default/5285558096476142286'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/33101013/posts/default/5285558096476142286'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://dragonquilts.blogspot.com/2009/10/baby-quilt.html' title='Baby quilt'/><author><name>Angelika Westermann</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/05319727992399747779</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='24' height='32' src='http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_mG93sppW0Vo/SckXSlSAG6I/AAAAAAAAA_8/A6NjrImIiKE/S220/selbst.JPG'/></author><media:thumbnail xmlns:media='http://search.yahoo.com/mrss/' url='http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_mG93sppW0Vo/SuMfUDbVb7I/AAAAAAAABKA/-cBCx2veij4/s72-c/sdc13053+(Bearbeitet).jpg' height='72' width='72'/><thr:total>2</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-33101013.post-7050653387262498375</id><published>2009-10-21T15:50:00.004+02:00</published><updated>2009-10-21T15:56:32.302+02:00</updated><title type='text'>Fabrik books</title><content type='html'>Wer, wie ich, total wild ist auf Bücher, wird über kurz oder lang wohl auch einmal ein textiles Buch arbeiten wollen. Ein neuer Workshop startet in Kürze, der von Peggy gehalten wird. Da ich Peggy von einigen Tauschrunden und nicht zuletzt einem sehr ambitionierten Round Robin zu diesem Thema kenne, kann ich diesen Workshop guten Gewissens empfehlen. Näheres findet Ihr auf ihrem &lt;a href="http://create-fabric-art-doko.blogspot.com/"&gt;Blog&lt;/a&gt;.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;If you are totally crazy about books like me I am sure you will try to make fabric books. There will be a new workshop next month by Peggy. Since I know Peggy from several exchanges and especially from a textile book round robin I think I can really recommend this class.

In diesem Falle habe ich aber auch Schicht um Schicht gearbeitet. Teilweise liegen vier Lagen übereinander. Am meisten Spaß macht es mir, die kleinen Fundstücke vom bretonischen Strand hier einzufangen. Da sind sie doch wesentlich besser aufgehoben als in einer Schachtel! Noch ca. 2 - 3 Stunden Arbeit, dann sollte das Teil endlich fertig sein. Ich werde es meiner Schulfreundin schenken, die auch viele Jahre lang Urlaub in der Bretagne machte und hoffentlich beim Anblick an schöne Stunden zurückdenkt.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_mG93sppW0Vo/Stx3XVCdh7I/AAAAAAAABJY/Of7UKrH_lX0/s1600-h/sdc13050.jpg"&gt;&lt;img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 320px; height: 240px;" src="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_mG93sppW0Vo/Stx3XVCdh7I/AAAAAAAABJY/Of7UKrH_lX0/s320/sdc13050.jpg" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5394317696351176626" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The second piece with trellis is not finished yet. I have been working layers over layers, sometimes there are four different trellis stitched one above the other. The most fun is to keep the small found objects from the beach in Bretagne caught up. I think they are more use in there than put away in a box! About 2 - 3 hours more work should do it. This will be a present for a school friend of mine who has spent quite a lot of annual holidays there and will have some good memories when looking at it.&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/33101013-139258046090255252?l=dragonquilts.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://dragonquilts.blogspot.com/feeds/139258046090255252/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=33101013&amp;postID=139258046090255252&amp;isPopup=true' title='1 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/33101013/posts/default/139258046090255252'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/33101013/posts/default/139258046090255252'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://dragonquilts.blogspot.com/2009/10/trellis-2.html' title='Trellis 2'/><author><name>Angelika Westermann</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/05319727992399747779</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='24' height='32' src='http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_mG93sppW0Vo/SckXSlSAG6I/AAAAAAAAA_8/A6NjrImIiKE/S220/selbst.JPG'/></author><media:thumbnail xmlns:media='http://search.yahoo.com/mrss/' url='http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_mG93sppW0Vo/Stx4Tl3wr-I/AAAAAAAABJg/5mw2Vdni_Uk/s72-c/sdc13049.jpg' height='72' width='72'/><thr:total>1</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-33101013.post-6876092315294623978</id><published>2009-10-12T17:00:00.003+02:00</published><updated>2009-10-12T17:08:10.902+02:00</updated><title type='text'>Trellis</title><content type='html'>&lt;a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_mG93sppW0Vo/StNFEitNzQI/AAAAAAAABI0/jn-HB2UlbAw/s1600-h/sdc13043+(Bearbeitet).jpg"&gt;&lt;img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 320px; height: 297px;" src="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_mG93sppW0Vo/StNFEitNzQI/AAAAAAAABI0/jn-HB2UlbAw/s320/sdc13043+(Bearbeitet).jpg" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5391729123230862594" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Und wieder habe ich eine neue Sticktechnik gemeistert: Trellis. Davon hatte ich vorher noch nie gehört. Es handelt sich um eine Art Nadelspitze, mit der man sehr gut Objekte befestigen kann. In meinem Muster habe ich ganz unten rechts ein Stück Rinde überfangen. Derzeit arbeite ich an einem Stück, in dem einige meiner "Schätze" aus Frankreich versammelt sind: Ein Schneckenhaus, eine Muschel, ein Stück Seeglas.All dies wird mit unterschiedlichen Trellis an Ort und Stelle gehalten. Es gibt ein Foto, wenn die Arbeit fertig ist.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;And again I learned a new stitching technique: trellis. Never heard of before. It is a kind of needle lace very good suitable for keeping objects in place. In my sample the second row shows at its right a piece of bark. At present I am working at a piece with some of my finds from the beach at Bretagne, a snail house, a shell, a piece of sea glass are kept at their place with different trellis. There will be a photo as soon as the work is finished.&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/33101013-6876092315294623978?l=dragonquilts.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://dragonquilts.blogspot.com/feeds/6876092315294623978/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=33101013&amp;postID=6876092315294623978&amp;isPopup=true' title='2 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/33101013/posts/default/6876092315294623978'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/33101013/posts/default/6876092315294623978'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://dragonquilts.blogspot.com/2009/10/trellis.html' title='Trellis'/><author><name>Angelika Westermann</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/05319727992399747779</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='24' height='32' src='http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_mG93sppW0Vo/SckXSlSAG6I/AAAAAAAAA_8/A6NjrImIiKE/S220/selbst.JPG'/></author><media:thumbnail xmlns:media='http://search.yahoo.com/mrss/' url='http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_mG93sppW0Vo/StNFEitNzQI/AAAAAAAABI0/jn-HB2UlbAw/s72-c/sdc13043+(Bearbeitet).jpg' height='72' width='72'/><thr:total>2</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-33101013.post-1841998202325657798</id><published>2009-10-04T21:31:00.004+02:00</published><updated>2009-10-04T21:40:42.729+02:00</updated><title type='text'>Neue wilde Frau</title><content type='html'>&lt;a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_mG93sppW0Vo/Ssj48KIWt_I/AAAAAAAABIk/K2Lzq4I4RuI/s1600-h/sdc12984.jpg"&gt;&lt;img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 240px; height: 320px;" src="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_mG93sppW0Vo/Ssj48KIWt_I/AAAAAAAABIk/K2Lzq4I4RuI/s320/sdc12984.jpg" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5388830666544035826" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Gestern habe ich eine neue wilde Frau fertig gemacht und abgeschickt. Wieder wurde eine Freundin von mir mit Brustkrebs diagnostiziert. Ich war so geschockt, daß ich nicht daran gedacht habe, ein Foto zu machen. Bei ihr wurde die Erkrankung beim Screening entdeckt. Ein erster kurzer Eingriff zeigte jedoch, daß die Sache so ernst ist, daß ihr die Brust abgenommen werden muß. Es macht mich total fertig. Allerdings zeigt es wieder einmal, wie wichtig das Screening ist. Also bitte, alle da draußen: Geht hin!

Again someone has been diagnosed with breast cancer. I was so shocked I forgot to make a photo. My friend's cancer was found out at a screening. The biopsy showed that it was so extreme that they will have to make a breast ablation. This is so getting me down. Please, to all of you out there: Go to the screenings!

Besonders unser letztes Domizil (eine alte Mühle am Ende eines Ortes, total abgeschnitten von allem, ohne Radio oder Fernsehen) hat eine fast meditative Entspannung nach sich gezogen. Zurück im Beruf hingegen das totale Chaos, stapelweise liegen gebliebene Unterlagen, und eine so reduzierte Belegschaft, daß es gar nicht zu schaffen ist, die Vorgänge zeitgerecht abzuwickeln. &lt;br /&gt;Bei unseren zahlreichen Ausflügen sind mir wieder reichlich Türen und Tore vor die Kamera gekommen. Aus einem mir selbst nicht ganz ersichtlichen Grund "sammele" ich Türen.Es mag dies ein Sinnbild für meine Neugier sein - ich wüßte gerne, was hinter jeder Tür steckt....&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_mG93sppW0Vo/SsIsxG2NVfI/AAAAAAAABIc/uyiRk9DUguk/s1600-h/sdc12895.jpg"&gt;&lt;img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 240px; height: 320px;" src="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_mG93sppW0Vo/SsIsxG2NVfI/AAAAAAAABIc/uyiRk9DUguk/s320/sdc12895.jpg" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5386917326451725810" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Coming down to earth after our trip is quite hard. Especially our last lodging was something special (an old windmill somewhere in no man's land, not radio, no TV) and resulted in a sort of meditative relaxation. Back in business however absolute chaos. Lots of unfinished documents and a terribly reduced team which is not able to finish things in time.&lt;br /&gt;During our travels I found quite a lot of doors. I don't know why exactly, but I am "collecting" doors. Maybe this is some symbol for my curiosity - I always want to know what there is behind a closed door....&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_mG93sppW0Vo/SsIr1ioxL_I/AAAAAAAABIU/YGvNqohVjGQ/s1600-h/sdc12872.jpg"&gt;&lt;img style="display:block;

Es stehen uns ein paar hoffentlich schöne Wochen in der Bretagne bevor. Freue mich schon riesig, denn es ist gut 20 Jahre her, daß wir das letzte Mal in dieser herrlichen Gegend waren. Besonders freue ich mich aufs Meer, es gibt einfach nichts Schöneres für mich. Eines unserer Kinder wird wieder das Haus hüten - dieses Mal hoffe ich mit mehr Einsatz an der Gießkanne, damit ein paar meiner Pflanzen überleben.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Holidays! I am nearly packed up and we will have some nice weeks dans la Bretagne (hopefully). I am really looking forward to this trip. It has been 20 years that we were there the last time. Looking forward to the sea - I absolutely love the sea. One of our kids is going to keep the house for us, this time making a little bit more use of the watering can I hope so that the one or other of my plants will survive.&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/33101013-1135616671558356803?l=dragonquilts.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://dragonquilts.blogspot.com/feeds/1135616671558356803/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=33101013&amp;postID=1135616671558356803&amp;isPopup=true' title='2 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/33101013/posts/default/1135616671558356803'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/33101013/posts/default/1135616671558356803'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://dragonquilts.blogspot.com/2009/09/urlaub.html' title='Urlaub!'/><author><name>Angelika Westermann</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/05319727992399747779</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='24' height='32' src='http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_mG93sppW0Vo/SckXSlSAG6I/AAAAAAAAA_8/A6NjrImIiKE/S220/selbst.JPG'/></author><media:thumbnail xmlns:media='http://search.yahoo.com/mrss/' url='http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_mG93sppW0Vo/Sp52aNfVp2I/AAAAAAAABH8/RZJg1uKBXSA/s72-c/sdc12609.jpg' height='72' width='72'/><thr:total>2</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-33101013.post-5922136637604867671</id><published>2009-08-31T13:43:00.003+02:00</published><updated>2009-08-31T13:49:17.917+02:00</updated><title type='text'>Blumentraum</title><content type='html'>&lt;a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_mG93sppW0Vo/Spu4LxBMnTI/AAAAAAAABH0/QklR2uUpWew/s1600-h/sdc12623+(Bearbeitet).jpg"&gt;&lt;img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 230px; height: 320px;" src="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_mG93sppW0Vo/Spu4LxBMnTI/AAAAAAAABH0/QklR2uUpWew/s320/sdc12623+(Bearbeitet).jpg" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5376093092473249074" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Nun ist die Hausaufgabe für den Stickkurs auch fertig. Zum Stichwort "Blumen" fiel mir diese Wiese ein. Es war ziemlich viel Arbeit, hat aber auch enorm Spaß gemacht. Wenn ich ein Thema habe, fällt es mir viel einfacher, frei zu arbeiten. Inspiration war in diesem Fall ein Stück wilde Wiese, auf das mein Auge fiel, als wir am Autobahnzubringer an der Ampel standen. Es ist erstaunlich, was auf so einem kleinen Stück alles blüht!&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;This is the finished homework I had to do this month for my stitching class.The theme was "flowers" and after having seen a small patch of grass with an abundance of flowers growing wildly this was what came to mind. It was quite a lot of work but much fun to do. It is easier for me to work freely when I have a theme.&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/33101013-5922136637604867671?l=dragonquilts.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://dragonquilts.blogspot.com/feeds/5922136637604867671/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=33101013&amp;postID=5922136637604867671&amp;isPopup=true' title='4 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/33101013/posts/default/5922136637604867671'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/33101013/posts/default/5922136637604867671'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://dragonquilts.blogspot.com/2009/08/blumentraum.html' title='Blumentraum'/><author><name>Angelika Westermann</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/05319727992399747779</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='24' height='32' src='http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_mG93sppW0Vo/SckXSlSAG6I/AAAAAAAAA_8/A6NjrImIiKE/S220/selbst.JPG'/></author><media:thumbnail xmlns:media='http://search.yahoo.com/mrss/' url='http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_mG93sppW0Vo/Spu4LxBMnTI/AAAAAAAABH0/QklR2uUpWew/s72-c/sdc12623+(Bearbeitet).jpg' height='72' width='72'/><thr:total>4</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-33101013.post-6603033004172395069</id><published>2009-08-28T21:25:00.005+02:00</published><updated>2009-08-28T21:35:36.246+02:00</updated><title type='text'>Berührender Kurzfilm</title><content type='html'>Diesen Kurzfilm habe ich in Sarah Lechners &lt;a href="http://talesfrombeyondtheglimpse.blogspot.com/"&gt;neuem Blog&lt;/a&gt; gefunden "Tales from beyond the glimpse".

You may be going through a time of emotional and mental trial; if you&amp;nbsp;have any past mental problems, you must be vigilant in taking your medication but avoid drugs or alcohol, as abuse of either will cause them irreparable damage.

Leider ist auch mein Arbeitszimmer betroffen. Ich bin quasi heimatlos, zumindest, was meine künstlerischen Aktivitäten betrifft. Natürlich könnte ich wieder an den Küchentisch zurückkehren, aber da ja auch alle Materialien im Arbeitszimmer sind (jetzt schön abgedeckt, damit sie nicht verkleckern), wäre es doch eher unpraktisch immer hoch und runter zu laufen.&lt;br /&gt;Daher bin ich besonders froh, den Stickkurs zu haben. Die kleinen Arbeiten sind sehr handlich und benötigen wenig Material und keine Maschine. Das Foto oben zeigt das erste Stück, das ich in dem Kurs gearbeitet habe - es ging um das Thema Couchen und gerade Stiche. Ein reines Übungsstück, nichts, was besonders ansprechend wäre!&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;There is not much to show and tell right now. We are renovating our house a little, and as a matter of fact my studio is in the middle of the action right now. Artistically I am homeless. I could return to the kitchen table, but since all my material is in my studio (covered up in order to avoid staining and dust) this would not be very practical, there are four flights of stairs between my studio and the kitchen. &lt;br /&gt;Thus I am quite glad for the online class in stitching. These small pieces don't use much material and no machine, you can carry them along and work sitting on the couch. The photo above shows my first piece which was just a study in couching and straight stitches.&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/33101013-5810792306495738355?l=dragonquilts.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://dragonquilts.blogspot.com/feeds/5810792306495738355/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=33101013&amp;postID=5810792306495738355&amp;isPopup=true' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/33101013/posts/default/5810792306495738355'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/33101013/posts/default/5810792306495738355'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://dragonquilts.blogspot.com/2009/08/sendepause.html' title='Sendepause'/><author><name>Angelika Westermann</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/05319727992399747779</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='24' height='32' src='http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_mG93sppW0Vo/SckXSlSAG6I/AAAAAAAAA_8/A6NjrImIiKE/S220/selbst.JPG'/></author><media:thumbnail xmlns:media='http://search.yahoo.com/mrss/' url='http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_mG93sppW0Vo/SoLYVOgvIII/AAAAAAAABHM/uLMEgsPEm-8/s72-c/sdc12035+(Bearbeitet).jpg' height='72' width='72'/><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-33101013.post-1495540327580209353</id><published>2009-07-30T21:41:00.002+02:00</published><updated>2009-07-30T21:49:46.296+02:00</updated><title type='text'>Stichexploration</title><content type='html'>&lt;a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_mG93sppW0Vo/SnH3xQHZ7WI/AAAAAAAABHE/88TQIGRjtYc/s1600-h/sdc12591+(Bearbeitet).jpg"&gt;&lt;img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 313px; height: 320px;" src="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_mG93sppW0Vo/SnH3xQHZ7WI/AAAAAAAABHE/88TQIGRjtYc/s320/sdc12591+(Bearbeitet).jpg" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5364341056686648674" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Im freien Sticken geht es auch darum, Stiche auszuloten, d. h. herauszufinden, wie sich ihr Aussehen und ihre Wirkung durch unterschiedliche Anordnung, Ausrichtung und Dichte verändern lassen. Hier habe ich nun eine sogenannte Stichexploration mit dem Hexenstich gearbeitet. Wenn man sich erst einmal daran gewöhnt hat, daß nicht alle Stiche in Reih und Glied stehen und gleich groß sein müssen, macht so etwas wirklich Spaß.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;As an introduction to free embroidery you have to find out in which way the look and "feeling" of a stitch can be changed and influenced by it's length, orientation and thickness among others. Here I made a stitch exploration with the herringbone stitch. Once you get used to the fact that in this kind of embroidery stitches don't have to be marching on in a row or look alike this really is fun to do.&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/33101013-1495540327580209353?l=dragonquilts.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://dragonquilts.blogspot.com/feeds/1495540327580209353/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=33101013&amp;postID=1495540327580209353&amp;isPopup=true' title='2 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/33101013/posts/default/1495540327580209353'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/33101013/posts/default/1495540327580209353'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://dragonquilts.blogspot.com/2009/07/stichexploration.html' title='Stichexploration'/><author><name>Angelika Westermann</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/05319727992399747779</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='24' height='32' src='http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_mG93sppW0Vo/SckXSlSAG6I/AAAAAAAAA_8/A6NjrImIiKE/S220/selbst.JPG'/></author><media:thumbnail xmlns:media='http://search.yahoo.com/mrss/' url='http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_mG93sppW0Vo/SnH3xQHZ7WI/AAAAAAAABHE/88TQIGRjtYc/s72-c/sdc12591+(Bearbeitet).jpg' height='72' width='72'/><thr:total>2</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-33101013.post-7942274784051732264</id><published>2009-07-28T20:19:00.004+02:00</published><updated>2009-07-28T20:23:14.288+02:00</updated><title type='text'>Lavendel Teebeutel</title><content type='html'>&lt;a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_mG93sppW0Vo/Sm9BvbBA19I/AAAAAAAABG8/8qvkgM8upv0/s1600-h/sdc12589+(Bearbeitet).jpg"&gt;&lt;img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 274px; height: 320px;" src="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_mG93sppW0Vo/Sm9BvbBA19I/AAAAAAAABG8/8qvkgM8upv0/s320/sdc12589+(Bearbeitet).jpg" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5363577964183214034" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Noch vor unserer letzten Reise habe ich eine Handvoll Lavendel Teebeutel auf den Weg geschickt.

(Um die Erinnerungen aufzufrischen - es handelt sich um einen Round Robin für ein Textiles Buch, das bei mir das Thema "Farben" hat). In der letzten Runde haben wir Material an die Teilnehmer verschickt, das diese verarbeiten mußten, wobei natürlich aus dem eigenen Fundus ergänzt werden durfte.

To refresh everybody's memories: This is a textile book round robin, and my books title is "colors".

Obwohl das Wetter nicht so toll war, war es eine schöne Zeit. Am besten war der Sonntag, wo wir auf der Insel Mainau eine Freilichtaufführung der Carmina Burana anhören konnten, die mit einem fantastischen Feuerwerk abschloß.&lt;br /&gt;In meinem Kurs bei Anne Lange bin ich langsam dabei, mich "freizusticken". Die Vielzahl an existierenden Stichen ist ja wahrlich Legion. Ich dachte eigentlich bisher, daß ich eine ganze Reihe von Stichen kenne, aber hier werde ich laufend mit neuen Stichen konfrontiert. Außerdem finde ich es erstaunlich schwierig, einen Stich zu nehmen und dann abzuwandeln. Irgendwie sind mir die strengen Regeln meiner Schulzeit wohl doch sehr eingetrichtert worden. Es macht aber mehr und mehr Spaß herauszufinden, was man mit einem Stich alles anfangen kann.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_mG93sppW0Vo/SmIzqUb1kHI/AAAAAAAABGE/fdj0eMCbRuk/s1600-h/sdc12582+(Bearbeitet).jpg"&gt;&lt;img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 291px; height: 320px;" src="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_mG93sppW0Vo/SmIzqUb1kHI/AAAAAAAABGE/fdj0eMCbRuk/s320/sdc12582+(Bearbeitet).jpg" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5359903308657299570" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Once again we were traveling, this time to lake Constance with friends. Although the weather wasn't that good we had a great time. Sunday was best when we listened to an open air rendition of Carmina Burana on the isle of Mainau which was topped by fantastic fireworks. &lt;br /&gt;In my online class with Anne Lange I am slowly approaching free stitching. The number of existing stitches seems to be legion. So far I thought that I knew quite a lot of stitches but here I am continually confronted with new ones. Moreover it proves to be really difficult for me to take a stitch and experiment with it. Somehow the straight rules from my time at school seem to have rubbed off. However it really is great fun to try out what is possible with one single stitch.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_mG93sppW0Vo/SmIzLr_ViII/AAAAAAAABF8/fLk5MI3GVc0/s1600-h/sdc12581+(Bearbeitet).jpg"&gt;&lt;img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 308px; height: 320px;" src="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_mG93sppW0Vo/SmIzLr_ViII/AAAAAAAABF8/fLk5MI3GVc0/s320/sdc12581+(Bearbeitet).jpg" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5359902782404266114" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/33101013-8300900084424924875?l=dragonquilts.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://dragonquilts.blogspot.com/feeds/8300900084424924875/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=33101013&amp;postID=8300900084424924875&amp;isPopup=true' title='1 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/33101013/posts/default/8300900084424924875'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/33101013/posts/default/8300900084424924875'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://dragonquilts.blogspot.com/2009/07/und-wieder-mal-zuruck.html' title='Und wieder mal zurück'/><author><name>Angelika Westermann</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/05319727992399747779</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='24' height='32' src='http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_mG93sppW0Vo/SckXSlSAG6I/AAAAAAAAA_8/A6NjrImIiKE/S220/selbst.JPG'/></author><media:thumbnail xmlns:media='http://search.yahoo.com/mrss/' url='http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_mG93sppW0Vo/SmIylnzwRkI/AAAAAAAABF0/T6eQTEFBfAQ/s72-c/sdc12580+(Bearbeitet).jpg' height='72' width='72'/><thr:total>1</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-33101013.post-2057096589705969737</id><published>2009-07-09T22:37:00.004+02:00</published><updated>2009-07-09T22:43:37.824+02:00</updated><title type='text'>Book pages</title><content type='html'>&lt;a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_mG93sppW0Vo/SlZVw-wR8MI/AAAAAAAABFk/shIpw2kgynk/s1600-h/sdc12494+(Bearbeitet).jpg"&gt;&lt;img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 316px; height: 320px;" src="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_mG93sppW0Vo/SlZVw-wR8MI/AAAAAAAABFk/shIpw2kgynk/s320/sdc12494+(Bearbeitet).jpg" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5356563106771366082" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Inzwischen habe ich für unser Buchprojekt zwei weitere Seiten fertig gestellt. Da ist zum einen das Thema "Afrika", das mit sehr schönen erdigen Tönen gearbeitet wurde. Viel Spaß hat mir die Seite zum Thema "Allerleirauh" gemacht. Wie in so vielen Märchen gibt es auch hier wunderschöne Kleider, und ein solches Kleid entstehen zu lassen, hat mir wirklich viel Freude gemacht. &lt;br /&gt;Mittlerweile ist auch meine rote Seite eingetroffen, ich konnte sie aber noch nicht fotografieren, weil meine Tochter mit meiner Kamera durchgebrannt ist *grins*.

Wie schade, daß solche schönen Erlebnisse immer so schnell vorbei gehen! Wir hatten unglaublich schönes Wetter. Aus diesem Grunde, und vielleicht auch, weil der Einfluß vieler unterschiedlicher Nationen inzwischen die Sitten verfremdet, waren unsere Eindrücke teilweise schon fast südlich geprägt. Wer hätte gedacht, daß Banker mit Schlips und Kragen ihr Pint balanzierend auf der Straße stehen und schnacken können...&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_mG93sppW0Vo/SkzSI_1gFiI/AAAAAAAABFM/Ax_1x2w2UtM/s1600-h/sdc12521+(Bearbeitet).jpg"&gt;&lt;img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 320px; height: 270px;" src="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_mG93sppW0Vo/SkzSI_1gFiI/AAAAAAAABFM/Ax_1x2w2UtM/s320/sdc12521+(Bearbeitet).jpg" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5353885109053298210" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The short trip to London already lies in the past. What a pity that the nice events always pass so quickly! The weather was incredibly great. Therefore, or perhaps because members of so many different nations influence habits, we nearly thought ourselves to be in the south. Who would have imagined bankers in suits balancing their pints in the street while gossiping...&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_mG93sppW0Vo/SkzSpiPmh9I/AAAAAAAABFU/qfDHfKEk71w/s1600-h/sdc12530+(Bearbeitet).jpg"&gt;&lt;img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 215px; height: 320px;" src="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_mG93sppW0Vo/SkzSpiPmh9I/AAAAAAAABFU/qfDHfKEk71w/s320/sdc12530+(Bearbeitet).jpg" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5353885668045391826" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/33101013-891791296427611585?l=dragonquilts.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://dragonquilts.blogspot.com/feeds/891791296427611585/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=33101013&amp;postID=891791296427611585&amp;isPopup=true' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/33101013/posts/default/891791296427611585'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/33101013/posts/default/891791296427611585'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://dragonquilts.blogspot.com/2009/07/london.html' title='London'/><author><name>Angelika Westermann</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/05319727992399747779</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='24' height='32' src='http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_mG93sppW0Vo/SckXSlSAG6I/AAAAAAAAA_8/A6NjrImIiKE/S220/selbst.JPG'/></author><media:thumbnail xmlns:media='http://search.yahoo.com/mrss/' url='http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_mG93sppW0Vo/SkzTQ1c3KRI/AAAAAAAABFc/tn4xBkO5N1U/s72-c/sdc12547+(Bearbeitet).jpg' height='72' width='72'/><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-33101013.post-8672864673096982150</id><published>2009-06-19T22:43:00.005+02:00</published><updated>2009-06-19T22:48:46.274+02:00</updated><title type='text'>Romantische Twinchies</title><content type='html'>&lt;a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_mG93sppW0Vo/Sjv5pMQRquI/AAAAAAAABE8/WGcN67K-35w/s1600-h/sdc12495+(Bearbeitet).jpg"&gt;&lt;img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 320px; height: 314px;" src="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_mG93sppW0Vo/Sjv5pMQRquI/AAAAAAAABE8/WGcN67K-35w/s320/sdc12495+(Bearbeitet).jpg" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5349143468492040930" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Ich muss noch nachtragen, dass ich inzwischen meine getauschten Twinchies aus der Romantischen Serie erhalten habe!

Runde. Dieses Mal wurde Material an die Mitspieler geschickt, das diese verarbeiten mussten. Inzwischen sind die Seiten mit den Farben Gelb und Schwarz eingetroffen. (Okay, Schwarz ist keine Farbe, aber da mir ein Teilnehmer in der letzten Runde schon Weiss untergemogelt hat, wollte ich dies um Schwarz ergaenzen.)

Das Werk ist endlich vollendet, gerade mal einen Tag vor der Übergabe. Die Freude war unendlich groß. Ich bin mit dem Endergebnis allerdings auch wirklich zufrieden. &lt;br /&gt;Normaler Weise weiß ich nicht, wie lange ich an einem Quilt arbeite, da ich selten nur an einem Stück stichele. In diesem Fall kann ich jedoch genau sagen, was an Zeit hineingesteckt wurde: Es waren ca. 60 Stunden Applikationsarbeit und 150 Stunden Quiltarbeit. Damit ist das gute Stück natürlich unbezahlbar. &lt;br /&gt;Nachdem diese Arbeit nun abgeschlossen ist, werde ich wohl hoffentlich wieder dazu kommen, regelmäßig zu bloggen.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_mG93sppW0Vo/SjUIw2ppiSI/AAAAAAAABEM/o6_jYdHLjbE/s1600-h/sdc12354.jpg"&gt;&lt;img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 320px; height: 240px;" src="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_mG93sppW0Vo/SjUIw2ppiSI/AAAAAAAABEM/o6_jYdHLjbE/s320/sdc12354.jpg" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5347189767969278242" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Yesterday was &lt;span style="font-weight:bold;"&gt;the&lt;/span&gt; day: The Hawaii quilt was presented to its new owner. The work is finally done, just one day ahead of time. She really was overjoyed. I am quite satisfied with the finished piece as well. &lt;br /&gt;Normally I don't know how much time goes into a quilt, but this time I can add the hours rather well. There were about 60 hours worth appliqué to be stitched and about 150 hours quilting work. This said it is obvious that the quilt is priceless.&lt;br /&gt;Having finished this quilt I will now hove more time to blog on a regular basis.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_mG93sppW0Vo/SjUJtHWi1vI/AAAAAAAABEU/xViGIVQdhec/s1600-h/sdc12355.jpg"&gt;&lt;img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 240px; height: 320px;" src="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_mG93sppW0Vo/SjUJtHWi1vI/AAAAAAAABEU/xViGIVQdhec/s320/sdc12355.jpg" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5347190803244701426" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/33101013-5985355962592010672?l=dragonquilts.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://dragonquilts.blogspot.com/feeds/5985355962592010672/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=33101013&amp;postID=5985355962592010672&amp;isPopup=true' title='4 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/33101013/posts/default/5985355962592010672'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/33101013/posts/default/5985355962592010672'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://dragonquilts.blogspot.com/2009/06/trommelwirbel-drumrolls.html' title='Trommelwirbel - Drumrolls!'/><author><name>Angelika Westermann</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/05319727992399747779</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='24' height='32' src='http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_mG93sppW0Vo/SckXSlSAG6I/AAAAAAAAA_8/A6NjrImIiKE/S220/selbst.JPG'/></author><media:thumbnail xmlns:media='http://search.yahoo.com/mrss/' url='http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_mG93sppW0Vo/SjUH9BddnaI/AAAAAAAABEE/AexHC30xOkE/s72-c/sdc12353+(Bearbeitet).jpg' height='72' width='72'/><thr:total>4</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-33101013.post-5683453387214042977</id><published>2009-06-03T11:38:00.008+02:00</published><updated>2009-06-03T12:59:59.288+02:00</updated><title type='text'>Wieder zu Hause!</title><content type='html'>&lt;a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_mG93sppW0Vo/SiZHLm4A0WI/AAAAAAAABDs/b1zne_HKxyI/s1600-h/sdc12286.jpg"&gt;&lt;img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 320px; height: 240px;" src="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_mG93sppW0Vo/SiZHLm4A0WI/AAAAAAAABDs/b1zne_HKxyI/s320/sdc12286.jpg" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5343036272661287266" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_mG93sppW0Vo/SiZGQXTW5nI/AAAAAAAABDk/oral8NW8sJQ/s1600-h/sdc12348.jpg"&gt;&lt;img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 240px; height: 320px;" src="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_mG93sppW0Vo/SiZGQXTW5nI/AAAAAAAABDk/oral8NW8sJQ/s320/sdc12348.jpg" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5343035254868731506" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Nun ist unser Urlaub auch schon wieder Vergangenheit. Es war eine sehr schöne Zeit, für mich eine Kombination aus Erholung und Weiterbildung. Die erste Woche waren wir nämlich am Bodensee. Ich hatte die Gelegenheit, beim Quiltfestival in Radolfzell zwei Kurse zu besuchen. Außerdem lockten natürlich diverse Ausstellungen und eine verführerische Anzahl von Läden. Auch wenn ich genau weiß, daß es eigentlich nichts mehr gibt, was ich unbedingt brauche, kann ich in solchen Situationen nie widerstehen. Dieses Mal habe ich eine tolle Sammlung von exotischen Stickgarnen bei Anne Lange gekauft (bei der ich auch einen der Kurse besuchte) und eine kleine Sammlung wunderschön gefärbter und bedruckter Leinenstoffe. Hinzu kamen noch ein paar Notwendigkeiten wie Quilt- und Applikationsnadeln.&lt;br /&gt;Im Anschluss ging es nach Österreich. Das Wetter war durchaus nicht immer schön, aber zumindest waren wir immer im Trockenen, wenn es anfing zu regnen. Ein paar Tage in Bad Hofgastein, ein Ausflug nach Salzburg sowie zwei Tage in Regensburg rundeten das Ganze ab. In Summe haben wir etwa 2000 km zurückgelegt, denn mein Göga ist ein leidenschaftlicher Autofahrer, und die Pässe in Österreich sind für ihn ein absolutes Muß. &lt;br /&gt;Meinen Hawaii-Quilt habe ich tatsächlich mitgenommen und praktisch an jedem Abend mindestens eine Stunde gequiltet. Das gute Stück ist jetzt fast fertig - es wird ein packender Endspurt!&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_mG93sppW0Vo/SiZI3ZTRgbI/AAAAAAAABD0/eMjwsTNZqMM/s1600-h/sdc12252.jpg"&gt;&lt;img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 320px; height: 240px;" src="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_mG93sppW0Vo/SiZI3ZTRgbI/AAAAAAAABD0/eMjwsTNZqMM/s320/sdc12252.jpg" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5343038124443402674" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Just returned from our journey. For me it was a combination of recreation and learning. The first week we stayed at the lake Constance and I attended the quilt festival at Radolfzell. There were some terrific exhibitions and I took two classes which I enjoyed very much. Moreover there were several shops and I just couldn't resist buying some material: Exquisite fiber from Anne Lange (who taught one of the classes I attended), some beautifully dyed and printed linen and some necessities like quilting needles. &lt;br /&gt;Afterwards we traveled to Austria. The weather wasn't really good but at least we always had a roof above when it started raining. We had some days at Bad Hofgastein, took a trip to Salzburg and finished with two days in Regensburg. Altogether we rode for about 2000 km because my DH loves to ride his car and he just couldn't resist the passes of the Alps. &lt;br /&gt;By the way, I took my Hawaii quilt with me and quilted at least an hour every evening. The piece is nearly finished by now - it will be a tough finish.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_mG93sppW0Vo/SiZV7L-JSbI/AAAAAAAABD8/_dhpLrjxqmA/s1600-h/sdc12185.jpg"&gt;&lt;img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 320px; height: 240px;" src="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_mG93sppW0Vo/SiZV7L-JSbI/AAAAAAAABD8/_dhpLrjxqmA/s320/sdc12185.jpg" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5343052483235760562" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/33101013-5683453387214042977?l=dragonquilts.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://dragonquilts.blogspot.com/feeds/5683453387214042977/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=33101013&amp;postID=5683453387214042977&amp;isPopup=true' title='2 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/33101013/posts/default/5683453387214042977'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/33101013/posts/default/5683453387214042977'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://dragonquilts.blogspot.com/2009/06/wieder-zu-hause.html' title='Wieder zu Hause!'/><author><name>Angelika Westermann</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/05319727992399747779</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='24' height='32' src='http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_mG93sppW0Vo/SckXSlSAG6I/AAAAAAAAA_8/A6NjrImIiKE/S220/selbst.JPG'/></author><media:thumbnail xmlns:media='http://search.yahoo.com/mrss/' url='http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_mG93sppW0Vo/SiZHLm4A0WI/AAAAAAAABDs/b1zne_HKxyI/s72-c/sdc12286.jpg' height='72' width='72'/><thr:total>2</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-33101013.post-6801886288747337596</id><published>2009-05-18T20:35:00.004+02:00</published><updated>2009-05-18T20:41:02.635+02:00</updated><title type='text'>Romantische Twinchies</title><content type='html'>&lt;a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_mG93sppW0Vo/ShGq4XCKajI/AAAAAAAABDM/Lj1qOU7I2XU/s1600-h/sdc12134+(Bearbeitet).jpg"&gt;&lt;img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 318px; height: 320px;" src="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_mG93sppW0Vo/ShGq4XCKajI/AAAAAAAABDM/Lj1qOU7I2XU/s320/sdc12134+(Bearbeitet).jpg" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5337234918643231282" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Als dieses Thema bekannt gegeben wurde, konnte ich einfach nicht widerstehen.

So etwas ist schon ein beeindruckender Anblick. Bilde ich es mir ein, oder blüht in diesem Jahr wirklich alles total exzessiv?&lt;br /&gt;Ich bin derzeit etwas sehr zurückhaltend mit Bloggen. Das liegt hauptsächlich daran, daß ich den größten Teil der Zeit an dem Hawaii-Quilt arbeite. Das gute Stück muß bis zum 13.06. fertig sein! Inzwischen sind alle Blocks zweimal umquiltet, aber das Echoquilten muß ja über den ganzen Quilt gehen. Ich habe also reichlich zu tun!&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_mG93sppW0Vo/Sgm5zBdtXDI/AAAAAAAABDE/byk54LTAG20/s1600-h/sdc12044+(Bearbeitet).jpg"&gt;&lt;img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 218px; height: 320px;" src="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_mG93sppW0Vo/Sgm5zBdtXDI/AAAAAAAABDE/byk54LTAG20/s320/sdc12044+(Bearbeitet).jpg" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5334999519814573106" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I saw an old apple tree in full bloom on a recent trip with my husband. It was a really impressive sight. Is this my imagination or is everything blossoming very excessively this year?&lt;br /&gt;Have been very slow in blogging the in the past. This is mainly because I am quilting that Hawaii quilt most of the time. The piece has to be finished on June 13! In the meantime all blocks have been echo quilted twice, but the quilting has to be carried over all of the quilt. This is quite a lot of work I still have to do!&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/33101013-6792850823878204693?l=dragonquilts.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://dragonquilts.blogspot.com/feeds/6792850823878204693/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=33101013&amp;postID=6792850823878204693&amp;isPopup=true' title='1 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/33101013/posts/default/6792850823878204693'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/33101013/posts/default/6792850823878204693'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://dragonquilts.blogspot.com/2009/05/apfelbluten.html' title='Apfelblüten'/><author><name>Angelika Westermann</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/05319727992399747779</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='24' height='32' src='http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_mG93sppW0Vo/SckXSlSAG6I/AAAAAAAAA_8/A6NjrImIiKE/S220/selbst.JPG'/></author><media:thumbnail xmlns:media='http://search.yahoo.com/mrss/' url='http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_mG93sppW0Vo/Sgm5OkmKwWI/AAAAAAAABC8/TBUTR0HJgVw/s72-c/sdc12047+(Bearbeitet).jpg' height='72' width='72'/><thr:total>1</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-33101013.post-3191224784298965871</id><published>2009-05-01T21:23:00.003+02:00</published><updated>2009-05-01T21:27:40.843+02:00</updated><title type='text'>Gans</title><content type='html'>&lt;a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_mG93sppW0Vo/SftM0bfiDJI/AAAAAAAABC0/2dDnqw_r3Ss/s1600-h/sdc12036+(Bearbeitet).jpg"&gt;&lt;img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 220px; height: 320px;" src="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_mG93sppW0Vo/SftM0bfiDJI/AAAAAAAABC0/2dDnqw_r3Ss/s320/sdc12036+(Bearbeitet).jpg" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5330939047540034706" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Diese niedliche Gans habe ich für meine Stiefmutter zum Geburtstag gemacht.

Ein Paar Elche ziert schon seit Jahren unser Sofa - die hatte ich ursprünglich auch einmal für eine Freundin gemacht, konnte mich dann aber nicht mehr von ihnen trennen, als sie fertig waren....&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I made this cute goose for my stepmother's birthday. It is one of those charming Finnanger-figures which I really love. The next will be a hen which will be a present for a friend of mine. A pair of moose has been gracing our sofa for years. I made them for a friend but could not bear to part with them when they were finished....&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/33101013-3191224784298965871?l=dragonquilts.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://dragonquilts.blogspot.com/feeds/3191224784298965871/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=33101013&amp;postID=3191224784298965871&amp;isPopup=true' title='4 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/33101013/posts/default/3191224784298965871'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/33101013/posts/default/3191224784298965871'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://dragonquilts.blogspot.com/2009/05/gans.html' title='Gans'/><author><name>Angelika Westermann</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/05319727992399747779</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='24' height='32' src='http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_mG93sppW0Vo/SckXSlSAG6I/AAAAAAAAA_8/A6NjrImIiKE/S220/selbst.JPG'/></author><media:thumbnail xmlns:media='http://search.yahoo.com/mrss/' url='http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_mG93sppW0Vo/SftM0bfiDJI/AAAAAAAABC0/2dDnqw_r3Ss/s72-c/sdc12036+(Bearbeitet).jpg' height='72' width='72'/><thr:total>4</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-33101013.post-3266441416268920666</id><published>2009-04-30T21:20:00.003+02:00</published><updated>2009-04-30T21:29:02.238+02:00</updated><title type='text'>Belohnung</title><content type='html'>&lt;a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_mG93sppW0Vo/Sfn6gCQoLVI/AAAAAAAABCs/tP788DCTXl8/s1600-h/sdc12042+(Bearbeitet).jpg"&gt;&lt;img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 320px; height: 272px;" src="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_mG93sppW0Vo/Sfn6gCQoLVI/AAAAAAAABCs/tP788DCTXl8/s320/sdc12042+(Bearbeitet).jpg" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5330567062239063378" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Jetzt muß ich doch einmal wieder meine Freude über das Internet und die tollen Bekanntschaften, die man dort schließen kann, loswerden. Diese wunderschönen Stoffe landeten bei mir im Briefkasten. Sie sind - man mag es kaum glauben - eine "Belohnung" für die Erklärung des Murmeltiers, die ich im Blog von &lt;a href="http://aliceandcamilla.blogspot.com/"&gt;Margaret&lt;/a&gt; abgegeben habe. (Muß ich mich nachträglich noch bei meinen Eltern bedanken, die mich in meiner Jugendzeit immer in die Alpen geschleppt haben.) Die Stoffe sind aus Neuseeland und einfach wunderschön! Danke Margaret!&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Once again I have to vent about the internet and the amazing people you can meet there. This beautiful fabric was in my postbox these days. You will hardly believe it, but they are a kind of prize for explaining about marmots in &lt;a href="http://aliceandcamilla.blogspot.com/"&gt;Margaret's&lt;/a&gt; blog. (Will have to thank my parents one of these days for dragging me to the Alps during my childhood vacations.) The fabric is from New Zealand and so yummy!

In diesem Fall waren es gleich mehrere Gründe. Zum einen mußten wir aufgrund eines Handwerkertermins, der so ziemlich alle Etagen des Hauses erfaßte, ziemlich viel Hausrat - vor allem Bücher - hin und her räumen. Das ist bei zwei Leuten, die bekennende Book-Junkies sind, ein ziemlich heftiges Unterfangen.Ich schätze, wir haben so an die 500 Bücher bewegt.... Außerdem haben wir mal wieder eine Reise an einem verlängerten Wochende unternommen. Es hat entschieden seine Vorteile, wenn man nur noch Dienstags und Donnerstags bzw. gar nicht mehr arbeiten muß. Schließlich und endlich quilte ich wie verrückt an dem Hawaii-Quilt. Ich habe das perfekte Garn gefunden. Es ist ein Farbverlaufsgarn von YLI und hat genau den passenden Pastellton mit allen Farben, die in den Applikationen vorhanden sind.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_mG93sppW0Vo/SfdD9yYiiZI/AAAAAAAABCk/25M-jQRszVY/s1600-h/sdc12041.jpg"&gt;&lt;img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 320px; height: 240px;" src="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_mG93sppW0Vo/SfdD9yYiiZI/AAAAAAAABCk/25M-jQRszVY/s320/sdc12041.jpg" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5329803412792052114" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;It has been a while since I made such a long pause in blogging. This time several reasons came together. There was an electrician in our house who needed access to nearly every room which necessitated hauling stuff from here to there, especially books. This is no small endeavor, especially when two book-junkies are living in the house. I suppose we had to move about 500 books... We made one of our small journeys. It really is quite nice when you only have to work on Tuesdays and Thursdays (or not at all). And finally I have been quilting the Hawaii-quilt like mad after I found the perfect quilting thread. It is a multicolored thread by YLI in sweet pastel tones showing all colors the appliqué is made in.&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/33101013-7043808897134180107?l=dragonquilts.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://dragonquilts.blogspot.com/feeds/7043808897134180107/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=33101013&amp;postID=7043808897134180107&amp;isPopup=true' title='2 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/33101013/posts/default/7043808897134180107'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/33101013/posts/default/7043808897134180107'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://dragonquilts.blogspot.com/2009/04/vermischtes.html' title='Vermischtes'/><author><name>Angelika Westermann</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/05319727992399747779</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='24' height='32' src='http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_mG93sppW0Vo/SckXSlSAG6I/AAAAAAAAA_8/A6NjrImIiKE/S220/selbst.JPG'/></author><media:thumbnail xmlns:media='http://search.yahoo.com/mrss/' url='http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_mG93sppW0Vo/SfdDGpvr54I/AAAAAAAABCc/JEj6-KI49Jk/s72-c/sdc12040+(Bearbeitet).jpg' height='72' width='72'/><thr:total>2</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-33101013.post-6422568914425801469</id><published>2009-04-14T16:34:00.005+02:00</published><updated>2009-04-14T16:45:20.500+02:00</updated><title type='text'>Kirschblüte</title><content type='html'>&lt;a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_mG93sppW0Vo/SeSfztmaqqI/AAAAAAAABCM/2c57IP27UKI/s1600-h/sdc12032.jpg"&gt;&lt;img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 240px; height: 320px;" src="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_mG93sppW0Vo/SeSfztmaqqI/AAAAAAAABCM/2c57IP27UKI/s320/sdc12032.jpg" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5324556370221640354" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Unsere Kirschbäumchen haben angefangen zu blühen - von gestern auf heute.

Die Frage ist jetzt nur noch, mit welcher Farbe ich quilten soll. Da einige der Blocks auch leichte Grüntöne haben, wäre ein ausschließlich blaues Garn wohl nicht so ganz angebracht. Nur Weiß fände ich aber zu langweilig. Ein Verlaufsgarn wäre vielleicht gar nicht so schlecht, aber in hellen Blau-Grün-Tönen habe ich noch keins gefunden.

Will have to decide how to quilt it. Since several blocks are a little greenish a totally blue thread would not be the best choice. However white is too boring, I think. I would love to use a variegated thread, but so far I haven't found one that is a very light shade of blue and green. Any suggestions?&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_mG93sppW0Vo/SdoUNhRJFII/AAAAAAAABB0/WdUFcSqOQws/s1600-h/sdc12022+(Bearbeitet).jpg"&gt;&lt;img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 320px; height: 307px;" src="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_mG93sppW0Vo/SdoUNhRJFII/AAAAAAAABB0/WdUFcSqOQws/s320/sdc12022+(Bearbeitet).jpg" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5321588132192785538" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/33101013-5342555716894728620?l=dragonquilts.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://dragonquilts.blogspot.com/feeds/5342555716894728620/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=33101013&amp;postID=5342555716894728620&amp;isPopup=true' title='4 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/33101013/posts/default/5342555716894728620'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/33101013/posts/default/5342555716894728620'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://dragonquilts.blogspot.com/2009/04/top-finished.html' title='Top finished'/><author><name>Angelika Westermann</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/05319727992399747779</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='24' height='32' src='http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_mG93sppW0Vo/SckXSlSAG6I/AAAAAAAAA_8/A6NjrImIiKE/S220/selbst.JPG'/></author><media:thumbnail xmlns:media='http://search.yahoo.com/mrss/' url='http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_mG93sppW0Vo/SdoTUJu9iuI/AAAAAAAABBk/NJ7kYhtEJAA/s72-c/sdc12020+(Bearbeitet).jpg' height='72' width='72'/><thr:total>4</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-33101013.post-1722944251941415011</id><published>2009-04-05T15:42:00.004+02:00</published><updated>2009-04-05T15:50:41.627+02:00</updated><title type='text'>Vor sich hinwursteln - Just working along</title><content type='html'>&lt;a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_mG93sppW0Vo/Sdi1tGI4-nI/AAAAAAAABBU/2BEFGOPbWTs/s1600-h/sdc11967+(Bearbeitet).jpg"&gt;&lt;img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 224px; height: 320px;" src="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_mG93sppW0Vo/Sdi1tGI4-nI/AAAAAAAABBU/2BEFGOPbWTs/s320/sdc11967+(Bearbeitet).jpg" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5321202746084883058" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Ich habe die Blocks für den Hawaii-Quilt zusammengenäht. Das Mittelstück ist bereits fertig, ich muß morgen noch Stoff für den Rand kaufen und außerdem Vlies. Rückseitenstoff ist da. Noch bin ich nicht ganz sicher, ob ich nur einen weißen Rand machen soll, oder ob noch etwas Farbe drumherum gehört. Ich denke aber, ich lasse alles weiß, so daß die applizieren Stücke mehr auf dem Hintergrund zu schweben scheinen. Der letzte Abschluß könnte dann wieder blau werden. Auch die Frage des Quiltgarns ist noch zu klären. Ich stelle noch ein Foto ein, vielleicht gibt es die eine oder andere gute Idee aus der Bloggersphere.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_mG93sppW0Vo/Sdi2M50-7KI/AAAAAAAABBc/P6sLeNdrrQg/s1600-h/sdc11968+(Bearbeitet).jpg"&gt;&lt;img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 236px; height: 320px;" src="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_mG93sppW0Vo/Sdi2M50-7KI/AAAAAAAABBc/P6sLeNdrrQg/s320/sdc11968+(Bearbeitet).jpg" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5321203292535975074" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Have been sewing together the blocks for the Hawaii quilt. The top itself is nearly finished. Tomorrow I will have to buy some fabric for the border and the batting. I am not quite sure yet if I will leave the border all white or if I am going to add some color. But I think leaving it white will have the appliqué sort of float on the background. The binding could be blue. And I have yet to decide how to quilt it. I will upload a photo, perhaps there will be some advice from the blogosphere.&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/33101013-1722944251941415011?l=dragonquilts.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://dragonquilts.blogspot.com/feeds/1722944251941415011/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=33101013&amp;postID=1722944251941415011&amp;isPopup=true' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/33101013/posts/default/1722944251941415011'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/33101013/posts/default/1722944251941415011'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://dragonquilts.blogspot.com/2009/04/vor-sich-hinwursteln-just-working-along.html' title='Vor sich hinwursteln - Just working along'/><author><name>Angelika Westermann</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/05319727992399747779</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='24' height='32' src='http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_mG93sppW0Vo/SckXSlSAG6I/AAAAAAAAA_8/A6NjrImIiKE/S220/selbst.JPG'/></author><media:thumbnail xmlns:media='http://search.yahoo.com/mrss/' url='http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_mG93sppW0Vo/Sdi1tGI4-nI/AAAAAAAABBU/2BEFGOPbWTs/s72-c/sdc11967+(Bearbeitet).jpg' height='72' width='72'/><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-33101013.post-5996935279010804543</id><published>2009-04-03T21:36:00.002+02:00</published><updated>2009-04-03T21:48:48.277+02:00</updated><title type='text'>Thousand handed goddess</title><content type='html'>&lt;object width="425" height="344"&gt;&lt;param name="movie" value="http://www.youtube.com/v/xgHmSdpjEIk&amp;color1=0xb1b1b1&amp;color2=0xcfcfcf&amp;feature=player_embedded&amp;fs=1"&gt;&lt;/param&gt;&lt;param name="allowFullScreen" value="true"&gt;&lt;/param&gt;&lt;embed src="http://www.youtube.com/v/xgHmSdpjEIk&amp;color1=0xb1b1b1&amp;color2=0xcfcfcf&amp;feature=player_embedded&amp;fs=1" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" allowfullscreen="true" width="425" height="344"&gt;&lt;/embed&gt;&lt;/object&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Es ist schon erstaunlich, was man so alles im Netz findet. Ich habe dieses faszinierende Video im Blog von Patty Szymkowicz gesehen. Nicht nur, daß diese Vorstellung besonders elegant ist, was sie wirklich zu einer Besonderheit macht ist der Umstand, daß die Tänzerinnen taubstumm sind. Die Choreographie wird ihnen von den vier Ecken der Bühne signalisiert. Nach ihrem erfolgreichen Debüt in der Abschlußzeremonie der Paralympics in Athen 2004 reisten sie um die Welt und haben eine Menge Geld eingenommen, um Behinderte in China zu unterstützen.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I saw this fascinating video in Patty Szymkowicz's blog.This amazing Thousand-Hand Guanyin dance is performed by 21 deaf-mutes from the China Disabled People’s Performaning Art Troupe (CDPPAT) and is nothing short of amazing. Their first major international debut was in Athens at the closing ceremonies for the 2004 Paralympics. The lead dancer,Tai Lihua, and the other 20 dancers, together with their choreographers and ’sign instructors’ signaling from the four corners of the stage deliver a visual spectacle that is mesmerizing.They have been traveling and performing around the world and have earned a lot of money to support charities for the disabled in China.&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/33101013-5996935279010804543?l=dragonquilts.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://dragonquilts.blogspot.com/feeds/5996935279010804543/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=33101013&amp;postID=5996935279010804543&amp;isPopup=true' title='2 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/33101013/posts/default/5996935279010804543'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/33101013/posts/default/5996935279010804543'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://dragonquilts.blogspot.com/2009/04/httpwww.html' title='Thousand handed goddess'/><author><name>Angelika Westermann</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/05319727992399747779</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='24' height='32' src='http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_mG93sppW0Vo/SckXSlSAG6I/AAAAAAAAA_8/A6NjrImIiKE/S220/selbst.JPG'/></author><thr:total>2</thr:total></entry></feed>
