Artist's Statement:

I can't resist buying orphan quilt blocks when I see them. I admit that mostly they just sit in storage but this gave me an opportunity to use some vintage quilt pieces as well as vintage crochet work. The abstract flower shapes seem to go well with the crazy quilting and I love the variety of the old fabrics.
