Description:
Artist Statement: "My quilt contains 14 hexagons of differing sizes which are 'nested' one into the other. Each hexagon is offset by a third which creates a spiral which moves inwards or outwards depending on how one looks at it. Ombré fabric and stripes of varying widths were used to differentiate between the layers and create movement."
Techniques: Machine Pieced, Hand Appliqué, Machine Quilted without a frame (domestic)
