Description:
Artist Statement: I made 16 large blocks, each containing a sashiko piece and one or two shibori pieces, and several other blue and white fabrics in various sizes and styles to complement each other. I'm pleased that in the finished quilt, it's difficult to discern the blocks. I enjoyed the sashiko so much that I also designed it into the border. There is something so esthetically pleasing about blue and white quilts, and this quilt contains only those two colors, but many combinations, textures and patterns.
