YLI #100 silk thread in needle & bobbin

Hobbs wool batt

This miniature quilt was inspired by the "Concentric Squares Quilt" exhibited at the Shelburne Museum in Vermont during their "Art of the Needle" exhibition of 100 quilts during 2006 - 2007.  The colors of the original quilt made my eyes pulsate with the dissonance of the strong complementary colors.  I enjoyed trying to duplicate this effect in miniature.

The quilting designs were inspired by the quilting of the original "Concentric Squares Quilt", combined with some of my favorite traditional quilting designs (reduced in size, of course!)
