Non Unus Pluma Quilt

Non Unus Pluma

8/19/2016

Here it is finally done!*
If you want to read the backstory and see the detail photos you can read all about in on the Non Unus Pluma page. I made this quilt specifically to hang here in our bedroom.

The color inspiration was from this collection of Poole Pottery planet plates that I bought when I was working in London in 2002. We still had Pluto as a planet back then!

* Did you notice the asterisk? I have to be totally honest and say that this quilt might not be done. The center poofs a little and it's bugging me. I'm going to steam it this weekend before it hangs in the Montpelier Center for the Arts. After I get it back at the end of September I may add some more quilting.

The quilt goes perfectly with the plates. I attended a lecture once by the man who discovered Pluto. He claimed to have been a plutocrat for years. Badumbum.

The colors of the quilt match the plates nicely. I think it was a great choice of inspiration.
When I was doing a lot of painting, I would sometimes take a piece that had been shown and "fix" a spot that bothered me.

It is nice to see such beautiful quilting without a feather. I looked back at the close ups to check on the "not one feather" name.

It's absolutely gorgeous! The center that you are unhappy with is not obvious in the photo, but hopefully steaming it will solve your problem. What a work of art it is! I also love those plates and they were a great color inspiration.

I knew this was going to be spectacular - and seeing it in place, along with the inspiration, shows it to perfection. Nice one Vicki!!
