We are invited to create something that relates to what we have studied and invited to bring it to the following meeting to share. Well of course this meant that I just had to go and add to my stash with some wonderful Australian fabric.
After doing some studying with mirrors,
I cut up the fabric into 60 degree diamonds and came up with this.
This was based on an aboriginal story about seven sisters, hence the pattern. The Australian fabric I used have depictions of waterholes and footprints which I thought fit with the legend. There were enough diamonds left over that I created this little table topper too.
Now I'm off to work on my Tangled Textiles piece.
Till the next time...

Your quilting group sounds wonderful!
I love your Australian Seven Sisters and I love aboriginal fabrics!
What a wonderful and challenging idea. Love your stars
I'm amazed. I had (and still have) this fabric in a bundle of arboriginal prints. I put is aside because I found it really ugly. But now that I see what you have done with it, I might "free" it from my kids stash.
sounds like a great group for you! I'm rather partial to the 7 sisters design, and yours is great!
