This quilt was inspired from the sweet-scented lilies grown in my garden. I designed this quilt in a formal radial format, like a kaleidoscope, to transport the viewer to a level of consciousness that transcends reality. I hand dye-painted, appliquéd, embroidered and quilted this piece using nature as the subject of this quilt. |

This quilt is appliquéd with hand-dyed material from Lunn's Hand-Dyed Fabrics. I was inspired by the hand-dyed fabrics. I love to hand quilt, and try to make one hand-quilted quilt each year. This quilt took 210 days to appliqué and quilt. |
