My latest quilt is called Home on the Late Boat, and depicts the Orcas ferry landing at night. This is a small quilt, so it didn't take me half a lifetime to piece or stitch. It will be one of the quilts in my show at the Orcas Center. The builting is a little lopsided, but I like the light shining down on the Orcas sign.
I painted a piece of white Kona cotton with Intense color sticks to make the piece of light fabric under the letters. I wanted that pool of yellow light that spread out to a cooler white, and couldn't get it by piecing fabric.
