Colorwash Octagon
After admiring Deidre Amsden's work and being on a Doreen Speckman quilt cruise with her and others in January 1997, I made several colorwash quilts. Colorwash Octagon is my original design incorporating squares and diamonds. Machine quilting with rayon sulky threads is completed to appear as though you are flying over contoured fields. Award winner at the Iowa State Fair. This was in the Quilt Art Calendar.
