Artist's Statement:

The quilt I chose for my inspiration was a medallion style quilt done in what appears to be printed cotton chintz of pineapples and floral motifs, though it is listed as a while cloth quilt. I chose to interpret the pineapple inspiration two ways – classic foundation paper pieced blocks and raw edge fused applique, using updated tropical bright colors and hand dyed cotton fabric.
