Description:
Artist Statement: “The inspiration for this quilt came from a photo taken by Jimmy Debacker. It is used with his permission. I love the way he captured the sky, water, and boat and gave a sense of isolation. The quilt was hand-painted and then thread-painted. It is three-layers and “made-for-storytellers” with the theme—"Water Works.” The quilt was made to be viewed from both sides.”
