Cage Life
Cage Life is part of my Pandemic Birds series. It was the first quilt I created in this series and was inspired by my experience during the pandemic lockdown. I wrote a blog post about this series which you can read here.
I used a raw-edge collage technique with machine and hand embroidery. The entire piece was quilted by hand using a Kantha quilting style. The piece is embroidered with variegated Perle cotton thread.
I create all my work in my studio overlooking the Puget Sound on Whidbey Island. All designs are original and are copyrighted by me. My studio is smoke-free and pet-free.
Materials used: up-cycled designer linens, Valdani perle cotton thread
Hanging device: wood slat attached to the upper back lining
Year created: 2021
Dimensions
11.5x14.5”
Care: Avoid hanging in direct sunlight. To remove dust, brush lightly with a lint roller.
