I guess I am finally able to see quilting from a different part of my brain, or have really been missing quilting. I have been seeing quilting designs so much more lately. In my previous post I saw different designs in stone, bricks, marble, etc. In these photos I saw new ideas in the windows. Can you see what I see in the first picture? The flower-shaped design with circles at the ends of each flower petal? I want to stitch that out and see how it looks.
These pictures are a few of many I took in Barcelona, at La Sagrada Familia, Gaudi's greatest masterpiece. the exterior photos show Gaudi's use of the gnarly pillars to represent tree trunks. He uses the same concept in the interior, too. I love the windows in the ceiling that allow the light to shine through and depending on the time of day, they seem to spotlight different naves in the cathedral.
Wow! This cathedral is beyond words. I have been to many of Europe's cathedral's, and this is my favorite. It is still not completed. It is impossible to capture the wonder that you feel when you stand inside.

great photos! When I went last time, we were only allowed to view the outside.
