Description:
Named Lyon, it was natural! –African animals move through this original work. It was 3 – weeks of rushing to finish before the deadline. See the whole story in “On Track” Magazine, Winter 2011.
“That night in a sleepless bed my mind busily planned an “easy” quilt. The design seemed so simple, and simple is good. The quilt top would be quite plain, because the motifs of my continuous-line patterns would provide plenty of variety. Well, almost plain—as plain as a quilt could be with a very involved center piece. I was thinking a paper pieced animal border and “discharged” background fabric would be very nice. I’d throw in some strip pieced sashing and then be ready to quilt. Maybe this could work after all. I mean, I had the inspiration didn’t I?”
