62. "Dancing Complements"
Marie Marcella
Asheville, North Carolina
100% cotton fabric, machine-pieced and hand-quilted. Easy curve technique (no pinning, no clipping, no matching seams.
Here I celebrate my favorite colors - violet and green! Together, they dance and sparkle, feeding my artist soul. My favorite pattern: Red Onion (Karla Alexander, Stack A New Deck), which fascinates me endlessly. My first quilting teacher, Jo Ann Dawson, who taught me to appreciate template-drafting, hand-piecing and hand-quilting. Deep appreciation for my sturdy Pfaff 230, passed on to me by my mother Elizabeth Marcella Wood - a passionate sewer - who purchased it in Wiesbaden, Germany in 1958.
