Marigold Geese Quilt
Marigold Geese Quilt
Size: 56” x 66”
The Marigold Geese Quilt is made with cotton/linen blend fabric that I hand dyed with marigold flowers to make the shades of yellow and madder root to create the shades of coral and pink. This quilt also incorporates a natural shade of cotton/linen as well as a golden and natural stripe linen. To create this quilt I first pieced a whole flying geese quilt top which I then cut into strips to incorporate as details in this modern and original motif.
The front and back were machine pieced, meaning the patchwork is machine sewn. The quilting, meaning the stitches running throughout, is done by hand with marigold dyed cotton sashiko thread. Hand quilting is a very laborious and time consuming process but the impact of the hand stitches cannot be mimicked with a machine. The binding is a mix of fabrics and is sewn by hand.
This lightweight quilt has 100% cotton batting. It is a functional piece but would be best suited for decorative use - a wall hanging, bed cover or an accent throw for furniture.
