Also this quilt will be a semicalligraphic one. I am adding excerpts from a book which was printed in 1833. I copied some paragraphs in old German handwriting. It is named "Journey around the world" and contains short descriptions of countries and people.
I might also add some more drawings with the character of "primitive" art -- I used a textile pencil and ironed it.

i like this idea.
I like the little beaties ...especially the egg...but all their teeth. Hummm what is it with you and teeth? Sharp teeth.
Those little critters are sooooo cute!
A very very long time ago I learned to write old German, I do not remember all the letters, only some!
I am glad that you are taking us on another exciting journey - yours and that of the book! I will wait at each of your blog stops to see the next steps and the news, and I shall enjoy!
Thank you so much for sharing your creative and artful adventures dear Eva!
Great touch!

Really like the text, wonderful on cloth .... and the little beasties are inspired.
