PNQE Best in Show: Master Work

This won Best in Show at the Pennsylvania National Quilt Extravaganza. Although it is not similar to anything I would make it stopped me in my tracks.  I think it is a master work. 

Back 
It is double-sided. The back repeats the elements from the front with black, white, grey and tan. 
Many of the back figural elements are composed solely of black, grey or tan thread on white or parchment fabric.

Detail of label

The label lists the names of the blocks, created in both traditional Civil War fabrics and neutrals, the maker placed around the Lincoln portrait.
