Tricia Supercalifragilisticexpialidocious Quilt





I just love the Mary Poppins movie. I did find the theme difficult. The only image that kept coming back to me was when Mary Poppins opened her carpet bag. Mary removed so many amazing items that could not have possibly have fit into the carpet bag- the lamp and the house plant.  I decided to try and create the carpet bag with the lamp coming out.  It is one of my favorite scenes.  I purchased a doll house lamp.  I use fusible web, free motion stitching and a water color pencil to shade the table.  I was disappointed with Mary but with my house move I did not have time to work on her any more.

I also want to say I am part of an Artisan Show this weekend and probably wont get to look at all of your posts until monday.  Sorry about that.

  3. This made me smile! A great visual to read your grandkids the story of MP. I guarantee they will be impressed. Be prepared for them to want to make a quilt after watching the movie. That would be a great grandma camp thing to do. Give them fabric scraps and glue. Hang them all together in your lovely home. ❤️

  4. Oh, Tricia! I love this! I see that you are as much a fan of Mary Poppins as I am and as many are! Using the dollhouse lamp was a genius idea!

  7. What a cute idea Tricia! I love that you used a doll house lamp - how clever was that! I, too, loved the carpet bag scenes where Mary brought out all sorts of things that couldn't possible fit in such a bag. Well done. Thank, too, for the new them. I will have to "reflect" on it!
