Description:

Artist Statement #1 (Houston International Quilt Festival 2021): "This quilt was inspired by an upholstery fabric design of overlapping distorted circles. I used computer software to draft the pattern, and had acrylic templates laser cut for the centers. The melon shapes are paper pieced with triangles improvisationally drawn separately in each melon. The spikey secondary shapes were serendipitous, and inspired the name."

Artist Statement #2 (Quiltcon 2021): “This vibrant modern quilt is a unique take on a double wedding ring and pickle dish quilts and it introduces improvisational paper piecing to create the triangles in the overlapping sections of the circles."

Techniques: Machine Pieced and Quilted
