"Tina" - A Quilt by Laurie Ceesay Landree

In light of the recent passing of music legend Tina Turner, we want to highlight a wonderful wall quilt of her, also entitled Tina, by Laurie Ceesay Landree. Find out more, and see details, of this stunning quilt.

 

Here is what Laurie had to say about her quilt, "The quilt was made for Quilting Arts Magazine's Call to Entry about the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame in 2009. It was in the magazine twice I love Tina Turner because of her life story of survival, her inspiration to women, her talent and her classiness. The quilt is small at 8 1/2" x 11". it is raw edged fused appliqué, machine quilted, and the first time I embellished with nail polish. I used it as highlights in her hair."

Fabulous job! The eyes are especially well done and they can be incredibly difficult to do. It's immediately recognizable as Tina.
