"Inspired by my good friend, Donna Barnitz, who is one of the most creative women I know, always excited to try new techniques. Above, we were working on filigree appliqué using UltraSuede for the butterflies (mariposas) in the center of the medallion style quilt. It was a true collaboration in that the foundation piecing was done by Donna, Afton Warrick, and me. It was quilted by Kris Vierra."
