Sunday Quilt Inspiration: C I R C L E S

I queried "modern quilt guilds" in Pinterest this afternoon and discovered that 30 guilds have Pinterest sites.  Each of those sites have various board and many pins.  There are a few guilds who are just starting their sites and fewer than 15 pins, but some have as many several hundred to a thousand.  If you are interested in modern quilts, fabrics and guilds, you might consider using Pinterest.
Making Art with the Golden Ratio (по этому же принципу рисуют спираль)

One of the themes I noticed as I looked through several of the guild sites is the use of circles.  



Sort of Circles Open edition giclee print by EloiseRenouf on Etsy, $25.00

Minimalist Abstract Landscape Art Print, Mountains, Mid Century Modern, Purple, Circles

Circles - Abbey Withington...Scandinavian inspired fabric intended for interiors. Painted with ink and screen printed onto linenAlexander Rodchenko  Hanging Spatial Construction no. 9 (Circle in a Circle), 1920-1921/1993  Plywood of peach-tree. 90 x 80 x 85 cm  Galerie Gmurzynska Zug

This is a custom designed stained glass window panel that was created to hanging in a long narrow window or sidelight. It measures approximately 9 1/2 inches wide X 57 inches long.  We find these long bubble designs look great when hung or installed horizontally above French doors or vertically in the side light of a front entry door. They add color, interest and privacy to a home.Hiroyuki Hamada

I wonder if I could get my very artistic daughter to make me something similar in oil pastels or chalk????

Been trying to find pillows that would bring in several colors in my living room and I think this is a great idea for that. These are small enough you could even cut down quilting squares that come in so many colors/patterns.
