Day 7-Cellos In the Red 2019 Greenville SC
I learned the technique of Hawaiian Quilting in a class taught by Nancy Lee Chong at the Academy of Applique in Williamsburg, VA. This quilt is a product of that class. My daughter, Sarah, a professional cellist, was the inspiration for the quilt. It was sewn in the traditional manner using a two color palette (100% cotton white tone-on-tone fabric and a red batik) as well as quilting it in a 1/4” outline quilting pattern. It is hand appliqued and hand quilted.
This 40x40 wallhanging was awarded the Best Hand Workmanship-Wall in the VISUALS #1 Quilt Competition at the Online Quilt Festival-August 2020.
