Description:
Urban Garden is one of Jacquie's most improvisational quilts. Essentially, she went to her scrap buckets, pulled some oranges, greens, and browns, and told herself she needed to make a quilt from what she pulled. She had just happened to have been to a community garden recently, and this quilt is her take on that idea of urban gardening. There is a lone piece of pink fabric in the quilt that snuck in amongst the oranges, and Jacquie says that it represents the strawberry patch in her garden.
