Description:

Artist Statement: "This quilt merges two of my favorite themes: food and the cosmos. The orbs are both watermelons and planets. The pinks with black dots represent watermelon interiors; the green radiating circles represent watermelon exteriors. The orange circles are cantaloupes--they are all whirling in a green sky."

 

Materials Used: Commercial cotton fabric, thrift store shirts, some overdyed. Cotton batting, cotton backing, cotton thread
