Quilt No. 94
August 2013
There’s nothing quite like
frogs when it comes to frolicking. Even a little snow won't slow them down.
Reach for the Stars was
entirely inspired by fabrics I liked, leading me to buy them at different shops
with no particular quilt in mind (which describes 99% of my fabric collection). This is the very best way to buy fabric –
the possibilities remain infinite. Eventually
these favoured fabrics came together to give a sneak peek at what frogs do when we’re not looking.
When the quilt was finished I figured I’d conquered the daytime world of frogs...but what
kind of things did they think about after the sun went down? Did frogs have aspirations? Did they have their own way of reaching for
the stars in the dead of night? In The Frog Who Jumped to the Stars Franz tackles these very struggles in his own froggly manner.
