This quilt may be used as a throw, a wall hanging or large crib quilt. Knowing that we must go into the world to connect with community to solve problems the artist was inspired by looking through lattice work. York selected the traditional Field of Diamonds pattern uses a combination pieced two inch squares to create a block. Each of these blocks has freehand stitching in the form of a flower over it. The cream sashes and borders have more traditional straight line quilting patterns as does the larger tan triangles that have cross line patterns to form small squares. The top and the bottom borders have a pieced sashes including a patchwork strip echoing the fabrics of the main field. The quilt is backed and bound in a turquoise floral print with extra batting in the binding to make it feel extra cozy and add dimension. Please see the coordinating pillow covers under separate listing.

Each of the quits for this exhibit is inspired by current affairs and the stress the artist sees in the world. Prior to this show all York’s quilts have been made for friends and family members as a way to show her love with each stitch. Wishing to stitch the world together and because quilts are a unique functional art form that provides of warmth and comfort, York hopes you will enjoy the love and passion that has gone into creating this one of a kind piece and that it may bring you comfort.
