Description:
Artist Statement: "This quilt updates the classic New York Beauty block with large scale and striking high-contrast colors. It says "look at me" from across the room. The design continues my series exploring the interplay of an inset grid layout. Dense grid quilting anchors the design's structured form. A variety of thread colors were used to create nuanced value shifts throughout."
Techniques Used: Machined Pieced, Machine Quilted on a Frame (Longarm), Foundation Paper Piecing, Faced Binding
