My current quilt is inspired by my trip, this past summer, to Peru. I was "introduced" to Pachamama, or Mother Earth. As I have been working on quilts that are a save the world statement, it seemed fitting to pursue Mother Earth as a quilt. With the Earth Fragments series, I will continue to use dresses as a stitching canvas, as well as textiles that have been salvaged, thrifted and gifted.
As I was beginning to stitch this small piece, I realized that this little butterfly could easily be classified as a sampler - a collection of various stitches. Does a sampler need text? If yes, then I could add a little more to the design. For now it goes into the growing pile to create Pachamama.
