Wow! 22 groups all starting from the same photograph. I am sure Kim is fascinated to see how her photo has been interpreted - even by her own mother! Really interesting, I can't wait to see all the exhibits.

Wendy, can't you tell from Rita's quilt? It's modeled after the quilt that is modeled after the photo? Several times removed, I suppose.

Maureen, I dion't remember you mentioning previously that your daughter was the photographer! That's awesome. I can't remember do all the Whisper groups start with the same photo or does each group start with a differnt one?

I never mentioned before that it was Kim's photo, as I didn't want you all to think I had an unfair advantage but it was truly a photo I had never seen before. That was one of the reasons I went first in case I would see it somewhere along the way, which I haven’t.

Yes, all the groups received a copy of the same photograph. The exhibit is going to be awesome

She is an amateur photographer Wendy. Her husband is one also and a judge so they are always going places to take photographs, even abroad. Helensburgh has quite a big photography club and Kim has been photographer of the year a few times. Both her and her husband have sold some stunning photographs. She went off photography for a while and stared making hangings with silk on an Embellisher but is now back to her photographs.

She has just started a new website http://photographybykimphillips.snack.ws/

I just thought I would make it clear to everyone that I don't see the quilts when they arrive so I am looking forward to the big reveal later on as well. My daughter takes the parcel, opens it and puts the quilts flat in a safe place. She is very intrigued with it all as she is Kim Phillips the prize-winning photographer, that supplied the photo and before you say anything, ‘The’ photo was one I had never seen before. She is also very tight lipped about the quilts that have come. Imagine keeping such big secrets from you mum. :twisted: :twisted: :twisted:

Where did she learn behavior like that? :lol: :lol: :lol:

No idea Lois :wink: :wink: :wink: :wink:

Okay, everyone. I am inspired. I need to write my 100 words before I completely forget everything about designing and constructing my quilt. I was confused about the label. I think I got lost somewhere in our discussion about labels and I was thinking there we were all going to have the same label designed by Rosemary. But I will get on with the label as well.

I was working on them but I seem to remember getting bored with some rubbing out of lines etc and then getting side-tracked with a quilt or two (and a few mug rugs) along the way :oops: Got a quiet week next week (after racing to the post office) I will try and get back on to it. I know that it was a great idea that I had - just need to get on with it. :roll:

We all decided to make our own labels when we didn't hear anything from you but that is OK. As you can't put the name of the quilt you are sending on to the next person, everyone is making their own label with all the information (which was in the attachment I sent out). Of course the quilt will have been sent to the next person so the labels will and have been sent to me and I will sew them on the proper quilts when I receive them.
