Hand pieced, fussy-cut hexagons are paired with zebra print and green silk Radiance for a dramatic effect. These stars are appliqued onto champagne colored silk Radiance. A twisted asymmetrical applique border is added. The quilting is stitched in a combination of YLI-polished poly 40wt thread and silk 100 thread. Motifs are original and hand guided. Quilting represents over 200 hours. The binding is an original design — double-piped and scalloped with a corded silk detailing secured by hand stitching a facing to the backside.
This quilt is sold.
