Just a glimpse

For those who think I might never post again - or quilt again - I am giving you a glimpse of something I am working on at the moment.

It is probably enough to tell you that it is based on glass blowers who work in the City of the Dead in Cairo and the gentleman working hot glass is my friend Hassan. I have so much of this glass - hundreds and hundreds of pieces.

And an out-of-focus image (I am not going to let you see it properly till it is finished!) of the top as it is now. There may be more beyond the turquoise edge, and of course the qulting will make it much more interesting.

Another one in the series is under way and I like it much better.

Archives

For those who have written to me to ask for photographs of Gilf Kebir - look in my archives for November 2007 and December 2007. I have written up a lot of the trip in my blog though I fizzled out before I crossed the Great Sand Sea. Or google "Jenny Bowker Flickr" and search my sets for the different days of the Gilf Kebir trip.

It is my birthday today and I am busy.
