Artist's Statement:

The background of this piece is made from recycled clothing. I am producing a large gallery show for a space in NYC in the fall and had some scraps left which makes them doubly recycled. Each year for the Alliance’s contest I am given an opportunity to try new things and to expand on my working method on a smaller scale. This piece is made using free-motion sewing and has a textural quality to it unlike much of my other quilts [Plus the image is of the quilter. How can you go wrong there?]
