Rhino Mini Quilt Finished

The African Indigo is on the right and left binding now. New prints are on the way.

The Rhino -- Majolika Color Choice

A small lino print, surrounded by other lino stamp prints is a little intermediate project, just for a change before I continue the larger quilt. This one is a mini quilt of about 8x8 in.  I made a tiny mosaic piecing (very irregular!) on head and foot. I'm not sure if I will use this old African indigo as an edge, maybe a lighter edge will be better. In Wolfsburg I saw this 16th century pitcher. This is the palette I'm using with my rhino mini quilt.

A Smashing Exhibition: Frank Stella in Wolfsburg

Wolfsburg, the home of Volkswagen, has a Nazi past and a commercial present. It may also have an artistic future with the overwhelming art museum, showing Frank Stella thru Jan 20, 2013. If you are in Europe, see the show! The exhibition is wonderful. The amazing hall, excellent light, a representative choice of Stella's work. I was even allowed to take photographs, but signed that I would use them absolutely for private purpose and not pass them on. I even got a press card. But I don't think it is an offence to show this view, overlooking the exhibition, because who will be able to use these snippets of Stella's art in a forbidden way?

After walking through the galery, we had a little rest in the Japanese garden which is part of the museum.

Later, I saw this piece of art work in town.

Wolfsburg is a very boring town with absolutely nothing old in it.  Many streets are definitely old workers' homes from the 30ies/40ies.
