Materials/Techniques: Photograph printed on fabric and heavily quilted.
Artist Statement: My mother was an avid gardener, a writer of gardening books and a photographer. While I didn't inherit her gardening talents, I did start taking photographs at a young age. This is a photograph of a somewhat motley cone flower from my back yard -- good thing they're drought-hardy.
Jean Cheszek
Dedication: For my parents, Charles and Marion Schroeder, for whom every stage of life was interesting, even Alzheimer’s.
This quilt has Fast Finish Triangles.
