Design Concept

This the sixth in a series of 12" x 12" miniatures made in 2020 and based on my previous original designs. This one is based on my quilt, Midnight Fantasy #6, which was pieced, and quilted in 2003 as a commission for a home in Tennessee.

A photograph of the Midnight Fantasy 6’s unquilted top was changed from a rectangle to a square, rotated, resized, and printed on cotton fabric by Spoonflower. It was machine quilted with many different colors of thread. Because of the reduction in scale, it often takes as long to quilt a miniature as it took to quilt the original, larger quilt. The backing fabric is from my Splash collection for Benartex. The binding is solid black.
