Design Concept
This quilt is one of a series of smaller quilts in a style
similar to my AQS best of show quilt Migration #2. It preceeded
the development of a pattern for a similar quilt. The background
fabric is hand painted with dye, and the flying goose triangles
are made from hand dyed gradations. The black birds are
machine appliqued, and the free-motion quilting was done
free-hand with no marking of the quilt top, using heavy
variegated top stitching thread.
