Quilt Summary:

- - Yo-Yos
- - Hand Piecing
Description:
Artist Statement: "Quilters have oodles of scraps. I took hexagon graph paper and designed hearts connected with paths. The hearts were tones of red, and the paths white. The rest of the Yo-Yos were scraps. I decided to connect them on six sides, rather than four, to eliminate toe snags."
Techniques: Hand Pieced
Design Source: Yo-Yo Quilts
About the "In the American Tradition" Exhibit (Sponsored by AllBrands.com): "Contemporary quiltmakers often look to the art form's rich tradition and history for inspiration for their own works. This exhibit features recently made quilts that incorporate traditional blocks, styles, and/or techniques."
