14,232 - Laurel's Colorful Cats

14,232 - Laurel's Colorful Cats

$45.00

Michele Bilyeu
Salem, OR USA
Width: 11" Length: 8.5"
Materials/Techniques: Laurel Burch and other cotton fabrics, machine piecing and hand quilting with colorful stitching and beads.
Artist Statement: Laurel Burch loved color. She loved the beauty of nature, and the way that color and design could be used to create amazing and fanciful worlds. I mourn the loss of Laurel Burch from our world, but I celebrate the use of her fabric with my own sense of design and color. Each piece is an absolute treasure to me and used to lovingly create small format art quilts for others.

Dedication: For all of those beautiful spirits we have lost, but whose lives we continually celebrate with joy.
This quilt has Fast Finish Triangles.
