Description:
This quilt was created in 1978 by the talented Michael James, our 2013 TQS Quilt Legend. It is called Aurora and measures 96" x 108". Aurora is part of a series of sky-themed quilts and is an abstract composition which breaks through the traditional idea of a drunkard's path block. Michael was inspired by the French painter/designers Robert and Sonia Delaunay and the quilt is in the collection of the International Quilt Museum.
