Description:

Artist Statement: "If I was going to try tying a quilt, I wanted to be very "over the top" about it. The straight lines of hand quilting were added to emphasize the interesting organic shape formed by the densely tied yarn knots. This quilt is very heavy! I found thick ivory fabric from an estate sale, once home to a woman who made altered wedding dresses, and paired that luxuriousness with other white and off-white fabrics in my found fabric collection. The ties grow and take over the space, but hidden underneath lies a pale radial design made up of improvisational pieced shapes."

Techniques Used: Machine Pieced, Hand Pieced, Hand Appliqué, Hand Quilted Hand Ties and Hand Stitching (For The Quilting)
