Artist's Statement:

"Streaking North" is an inspiration of "North by Northeast". Choosing my inspiration led me to a quilt from Maine, quilts in our New England Quilt Museum, and a memory of a quilt donated by Evergreen Quilters, my own quilt chapter. It was made by members then, 1995, and some still members now. It spoke of Maine to me.
