The Quilt Show Puzzle: "Kaleidoscope Trees" by Judith Phelps

Do a puzzle of Judith Phelps' quilt, Kaleidoscope Trees.

 

Kaleidoscope Trees was inspired by the book, All the Light We Cannot See by Anthony Doerr. In the book, a little girl goes blind at the age of six, so to her, "The huge cypress trees she and her father pass on their morning walk are shimmering kaleidoscopes, each needle a polygon of light." That line was the inspiration that sparked the creation of the quilt. Judith says, "the quilt was made to be viewed from both sides, has three layers and is completely thread painted except for the outer borders."
