Travel can bring us<\/a> some of the most exciting inspirations for our creative work, and museums are often the fountainhead for a whole series of works that are inspired by another era.<\/p>\n

Knowing how many of you love to work with floral fabrics, particularly images of lush full-blown roses, I wanted to share these couple images from the Silver Collection Museum<\/a> at the Hofburg Palace in Vienna<\/a>. (with a collage of eQuilter florals)<\/p>\n

Vienna is a city full of discreet pastels, often outlined in gold metallic. Buildings, furniture, porcelain and desserts are in varying shades of blush pink, banana yellow, aqua and mint…trimmed in ivory and gold metallic. In these 2 images, a set of sugar pots, and a lace-edge plate have a color story of a Robins Egg Blue with gold metallic, accented with hand-painted flowers. I was so charmed by this set of floral porcelain confections!<\/p>\n

Everywhere I go, I find my quilter friends. Tonight Vienna publisher Gabi Maier and her daughter very graciously took us for a tour of the new modern architecture of WU<\/a>, out for a drive around the Vienna Woods<\/a>, up to see the view from Kahlenberg<\/a>, and then we had a locally produced dinner at a delightful hidden Heurigen (farmers’ wine tavern) in Nussdorf.<\/p>\n

The mass transit system here is amazing, and in fact we were able to hop on a hillside tram right in front of the Heurigen, and take it all the way back into the city just a couple blocks from our hotel…with memories of wild berry strudel dancing in our heads!<\/p>\nShare Post:<\/strong>
