Sky Log

I recorded the 8 April 2024 eclipse in my 2024 digital temperature quilts, so of course the worldwide northern lights must make an appearance, too! Thank heavens I already had a Northern Lights Snowflake!

My sampler (approximately half-year) digital quilts are almost done. I'm so excited by that because I can't wait to make something cool out of the fabric when printed. I don't know yet what I will make... Perhaps a baby quilt or two because I've got so many new babies coming into my circle of family and friends. But I think a couple of these might make an awesome dress or skirt, too. Or a new coat!

I used a piece of rainbow batik to symbolize the northern lights in the digital batik temperature quilt, the one I'd like to make with real fabric one day.

The only thing I could think of to symbolize northern lights in the all-blue HST digital temperature quilt was to smear or swirl the half-square triangles. I wasn't sure at first if I liked the idea, but now it's sort of grown on me.

seldom heard, well must you keep your secrets
locked inside, hidden deep from view?
You can talk to me... (Stevie Nicks)
