Artist's Statement:

The quilt I chose for my inspiration was a 're-make' of a finished quilt. I decided to finally re-make' a vintage crazy quilt piece that I had been studying for a while. I cut it up (yikes!) and used it to applique a trapunto butterfly. Then the butterfly needed some flowers so I used a tiny part of my ever growing vintage collection of doilies, lace, buttons, etc. to create a garden. Not exactly what my inspiration artist did but it is a "re-make' using items from the past!
