NOTABLE EXHIBITIONS
AQS QuiltWeek, Lancaster, PA, 2015
- Awarded Honorable Mention

This art quilt is a traditional "Broken Star" but made in a non-traditional way. Instead of being pieced, the 560 diamonds are made with 6-8 pieces of the same color hand-dyed fabric that have been fused to a background and then quilted down with black thread 1/4" apart.

The dark swoosh that goes across the middle was made by using darker fabrics in that area.

During the weeks that it took to cut, place, and fuse the diamond pieces, every time I closed my eyes I would still see the diamond shapes.
