Description:
Artist Statement from Margaret's Website (www.mainelyquiltsoflove.com): "This quilt is constructed from fussy-cut hexagon clusters made from Tula Pink fabrics and turquoise scraps of silk Radiance I dyed for Sweet Madame Blue. The background, also silk, is a stock color. The design is original and all applique is turned-edge and hand stitched, even the very tiny 1/4″ berries!"
