TUMBLEWEED QUILT
This quilt was inspired by a nineteenth-century doll quilt I came across. I chose gray as my dominant color on a natural organic cotton background. This palette was inspired by the bleak colors of the high desert in wintertime—the colors of sagebrush and the winter trees and sky, the tumbleweeds that blow across the road on my drive home from trips to town. The black sawtooth border represents the biting cold and the feeling of being encapsulated by long, dark winter nights.
This quilt was featured in my book Farm & Folk Quilt Alchemy.
Materials: organic cotton and hemp fabrics, organic cotton batting, organic cotton, linen and hemp fabrics and a vintage seed sack makes up the backing, organic cotton sewing machine thread, and cotton Japanese sashiko thread.
Measures: 64” x 88” (will fit a twin bed)
