#1003




The quilt maker did not use any paint to create the face in this portrait quilt. A particularly interesting element here is her use of the back of the fabric to create the shading in the shirt. Nor did she use a pair of jeans to create the denim look in the quilt either. The jeans are appliqued shades of blue. Again, an amazing piece, hanging next to the Guatemalan ladies, difficult to get near bacause everyone wanted a closer look!
