Le top de Modern Bargello, ou encore Huahine, est terminé.
Modern Bargello, or Huahine, is a flimsy!
Modern Bargello, or Huahine, is a flimsy!
It all started with a crush on the pattern designed by Mary Hattick, smaller and smaller squares assembled in shifted strips. I redesigned the pattern, with more squares, and more strips.
Pour celui-ci, j'ai eu envie de couleurs, autres que du bleu. En fait ces derniers temps je n'ai fait que des quilts bleus ! Il y a eu Grand Nord, Australis, et Interwoven. Allez hop, du rouge maintenant !
En fouillant dans ma boîte de tissus rouges, j'ai trouvé cet imprimé étoilé, qui fait un peu Noël. Humm, c'est de saison... allez, adopté !
For this one, I wanted colors, other than blue. In fact, lately I've been doing nothing but blue quilts! There was Grand Nord, Australis, and Interwoven. Let's go for red now!
While rummaging through my box of red fabrics, I found this star fabric print, which is a little bit Christmassy. Hmmm, it's in season... ok, adopted!
And a few more strips!
La bande 1 devient des carrés
Strip #1 turns into squares
The other strips become rectangles. Odd numbers for the pieces that will be connected by a sashing: the 2 remaining strips will be cut as you go.
Début de l'assemblage des bandes
Assembling pieces into a new strip
ça grandit...
it's growing...
... encore un peu
... a little more
Voilà toutes les pièces assemblées, et les bandes décalées.
Et c'est là que mon Modern Bargello s'appelle Huahine, dans cette configuration. Si, si, vous allez comprendre !
Here are all the pieces assembled, and the strips offset.
And this is where my Modern Bargello is called Huahine, in this configuration. Wait, you will understand!
Ceux et celles qui me connaissent savent mon attachement pour la Polynésie française, Tahiti et ses îles. Et parmi ses îles il y en a une qui s'appelle Huahine. Très belle, encore sauvage, elle est chantée notamment par Angelo Neuffer, sur les paroles de feu Bobby Holcomb, 2 artistes très connus localement.
Cette chanson, je l'ai très souvent dans la tête, même encore maintenant. C'est "Huahine Te Tiara'a", et si vous écoutez le solo à 2:27, vous entendrez une mélodie que mon chéri, musicien, a transcrit comme ça :
Those who know me know my love for the French Polynesia, Tahiti and its islands. And among its islands there is one called Huahine. Very beautiful, still wild, it is sung notably by Angelo Neuffer, on the lyrics of the late Bobby Holcomb, two very well known local artists.
This song, I have it very often in my head, even now. It's "Huahine Te Tiara'a", and if you listen to the solo at 2:27, you will hear a melody that my sweet husband, also a musician, transcribed like this:
Voilà, vous voyez, 8 notes : 3 qui descendent, 4 qui montent et 1 qui redescend. Mon quilt.
Here, you see, 8 notes: 3 going down, 4 going up and 1 going down. My quilt.
Maintenant c'est tous les jours que j'aurais cette chanson dans la tête 😂
Now it's every day I'll have this song in my head 😂
