Description:
Philippa Naylor's quilt, "Wearable Art", is a teeny tiny quilt and won a big prize in Houston. It features some of Philippa's favorite things.
Philippa states: My quilt was inspired by some of the things I love - my clothes (make and bought), shoes, sewing machine, and yes even my iron! This original design was hand drawn on paper and free motion sewn on my domestic sewing machine with each stitch being hand guided. I loved being immersed in such a detailed piece and had to concentrate really hard and work very slowly to ensure such tiny stitches.
