Artist Statement

This quilt is one of a series in which I wanted to make a drawing with fabric. In each series, I set up a problem and set about trying to solve it. I am adamant about piecing my quilts and had a lot of fun making skinny lines (except for a few small pieces of pin stripe fabric I inked)!

Materials

Cotton fabric, polyester thread, wool batting, fabric marking pen
