A combination of the owner’s daring tastes, the architect’s classical leanings and interior designer Billy Cotton’s veneration of New England style has given this Twenties Westchester mansion an authentic yet individual feel
'Community Engagement Officer', oil on canvas, 120 x 90cms, 2023-24 Occasionally I will stop and think how much painting is extremely difficult to do well. It requires an extraordinary amount of mental stamina and focus, skill and experience which can only be developed with many years of practice in the studio (I’ve now been painting seriously for nearly 35 years), many hours looking at other paintings, and an incredible will and determination. And still it frequently ends up being a complete mess or falling desperately short of what you hoped. So, you carry on…that’s the reason you carry on. It’s either that or give up. I haven’t given up, and in the last couple of months I’ve made some new paintings I’m pleased with that I would like to share…. I’m continuing to develop a renewed interest in painting the figure in the landscape, but I’m also interested in developing some more specific portraits of individuals, such as this one of Nick (at top of post), Community Engagement Officer for the Birmingham Canal and River Trust, who has been working with my students. I worked on it in the last week before Christmas, before then deciding to repaint the whole thing in about 3 hours in January. It was part of a process of experimenting and trying to decide what I don’t like as much as what I do. This is to develop a language for the portraits that’s a break from the ones I’ve done in the past and thinking about and applying some of the lessons I’ve learned from 12 years of landscape painting since. Consequently, I’m not sure what I think of this painting just yet, but I know from experience the answer as to how to develop things further is not by doing any more work on this one, but keep doing others and keep exploring… as yet untitled, oil on canvas, 120 x 150cms, 2023 I’m much happier with this large painting of a canal scene set at a spot I frequently pass on my dog walks and have made two other largeish paintings from, one set in the winter (one of my favourite paintings) and one in the summer. I wanted to do something more autumnal at the same scene and kept returning through late October with my camera, and the dog, to capture the changing autumn colours. I was inspired by the glorious autumnal fiery colour of the autumn I had witnessed on a recent trip to Scotland, but the colour in the Midlands was rather different… Still, the dun greens, ochres and darker colours were still autumnal. I could have made things fierier with vivid oranges and yellows, but there is something about an authenticity that always nags and sits whispering on my shoulder… One morning as I took some photos this barge came into view from beneath the bridge and slowly glided past me, it’s owner eyeing me somewhat suspiciously as he passed whilst I took some photos. I was excited and slightly unsettled by the experience, but I’m not sure why. When it came to creating the painting, I decided to include the barge, with the fear that it may look a little twee, but by keeping it quite small enveloped by the surrounding landscape I think I managed to avoid any tweeness. Instead, I think it has captured that unsettling, almost funeral, feeling I felt on the towpath that morning. I think it’s one of the strongest paintings I've made in a long time….

Si algo tienen en común muchos dormitorios románticos es que tienen un punto recargado y campestre que los hacen muy especiales. Y es que la conexión con la naturaleza es una de las cualidades que más conexión tienen con la temporada otoñal. Federica Barbaranelli lo borda y domina esta estética como solo ella sabe hacerlo, creando una armonía perfecta entre los diferentes elementos: pasamanerías de terciopelo para ribetear los cojines, blondas y puntillas en las fundas de las almohadas, texturas de espiga en las mantitas y fundas nórdicas de algodón. Mezclas de rayas, toile de jouy, flores de diferentes tamaños, el zig-zag de la espiga... ¿Te has fijado en la antigua silla que hace las veces de mesita de noche? ¡Nos encanta! Todos los detalles son importantes.

Designed by Cleve West, a magical space with walls retaining at seat level, so wherever you walk you can pause, sit and enjoy, I managed to gain access to Cleve's garden and even had a brief chat with him. I loved it even more once in the space. The star plant at the show for me is most certainly Dianthus cruentus, with its crimson flowers which looked wonderful in amongst the cotswold stone, with its elegant stems and deep red flower. The statuesque columns, the wonderful dry stone walls and planting that had space, looked natural and certainly did not look like it was only planted a week ago!!!! The play with water with the water pipes and channel through the garden with stone stepping stones, all beautifully executed and inspirational.

Today, I would have been greeting Laura and Charlotte, just a couple of my students, to my Flutter class at the Garden of Quilts event but as you are aware, there are no classes, lectures, demos or trunk shows this year (above picture taken at LAST year's Garden of Quilts event). Flutter is such a fun, happy and lively design that we patterned with Hidden Shoofly as part of our TWO Designs in ONE Pattern concept!! Do you want to know why? If you look closely at the Flutter block, you'll see the Hidden Shoofly block right in the center! Its the simple ADDITION of Quick Angled Rectangles to the top, bottom and sides of the Hidden Shoofly block that creates the Flutter block! Do you see it now? Pretty neat, huh?!!! I may not be teaching my Flutter class today but I do have Gem Stone Brights Flutter kits available here! Flutter typically takes a Fat Quarter bundle but we wanted you to experience the FULL color range of the Gem Stones Brights prints. Your kit will consist of 1/3 yard EACH of ALL the Gem Stones Brights prints plus background and binding! As you can see from the Flutter blocks above, the color shifts in tone and in others, the color shifts to a different color all adding to the charm and beauty of Flutter! If bright and white is not your cup of tea, we are also offering Flutter in our original Gem Stone prints on black ground here! Until next week, Happy "Flutter" Quilting! Gerri
