Lepidopteran #5

This design was inspired by a small photo of a green moth which I had saved for many years in my "inspiration" file. Rather than copy the photo, I studied the colors and patterns in the moth, analyzing what had made me want to save the photo in the first place. Then I used some of these patterns and colors to create a completely abstract design.

Some of the fabrics were hand dyed. The rest are from various collections of I have designed for Benartex, based on my hand-painted originals. Ink and pencil were also used in some areas.

Materials: Hand dyed cotton, commercial cotton, ink, pencil, thread

Techniques: Hand dyed, machine pieced, machine quilted
