Description:

This is an art quilt designed after a painting by Hayley Lever, The Allegheny in 1923. I have used various materials, including antique lace for the smoke, upholstery fabrics, and others. There is a batting sandwiched between the face and backing, and the entire area is machine quilted using free motion stitching. The framing is a simple acrylic on the front and back (so that the backing is visible, held together by clips.
