mods and rockers

*my 19 year old self circa 1993
Well I am most definitely a rocker,
traditional is my bag.
Which is probably why, up until now I've left modern quilting
well... to the mods.
So why am I dipping my toe in?
As you know I've been racking my laptop
looking for the right quilt for my batik(gift) fabrics.
I went back and forth with ideas,
then after a Gees bend search (thanks Mary)

I came across Lisas 'gee's bend' style bee quilt.
Something in my traditional head snapped.
I then went on to discover
Sherri lynn @ dainty time
and then of course there's always Mari @ the quilting edge

Asking me to go all out mod is impossible.
I'm hanging out somewhere in the middle,
as always you can call me
that indie quilter.
When the penny finally dropped
everything fell into place..
including a name...the Network.
It's the 90's batik is everywhere.
I'm 19, in love with rock music and studying art.
The Network Club was 'our' life
a place where everyone knew your name,
and the place where I met my husband.

It all makes total sense to me now.
So if this quilt does turn out a little new age then so be it,
to me, it will always remind me of the best times.
ps.
I've also wanted to make an autograph quilt,
so I'm thinking of embroidering band names etc..
So are you a mod or a rocker...
or an inbetweeny indie quilter?
