As I mentioned last week I have company. We had a fun evening watching a live performance “Take 3“. An all women group of violin, cello, and pianist. A lively enthusiastic group and amazing music where “Rock meets Bach”!! The concert was at Mechanics Hall in Worcester, MA. I love attending concerts in this building. Even though we were in the smaller Washburn Hall, the building has such inspiration. Look at the “half dresden” – ish design over the entrance.

I love the grand staircase and how about the carpet? I’m seeing a great quilt block or it could be an entire quilt with just one of the “squares”!


We walked around the ground floor before the performance and look at this window. I see a great applique vine or a beautiful flowing quilting design!

Inspiration all around! Where do you find inspiration?
#1- Look UP and DOWN! Carpet, tile work, buildings, and architecture elements provides so much inspiration.
#2 – How about windows? Beautiful etched glass, stained glass, inlaid glass….. More inspiration for pieced blocks, applique quilts and even quilting designs!!
in quilting,
