Space Twizzle

"Space Twizzle" by Rob Appell is a part of his Twizzleman Project series of quilts.

After being "afraid" that they would stop producing great-looking sea life fabric and that he would be "out of the job", Rob Appell decided to pivot towards making bio-mechanic, weird science quilts that have become a part of his Twizzleman Project. At the time of its inception, Rob was doing some tattoo study and cleaning Pat Twissleman's sewing machine the day after he finished Space Twizzle. Looking down at the work order and thinking about the "twissle" part of the name, and the fact that the quilt he had made a twizzle in it itself, he asked Pat if he could use her name in the quilt when she came to pick up her machine. She gave her blessing after seeing the quilt and Space Twizzle and the rest of the Twizzleman Project was born.
